Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I feel like to comes down to not what the particular rights were at the time but the direction they were going over a period like a decade. This is why I don't like how things have gone since the 70's. I feel progress slowed in the 80's and went to a crawl this millenium and has not been looking good the last 20 years and is basically regressing.
People are more accepting (or at least less willing to be a bigot in public) of a bunch of stuff today than even 20 years ago, though, at least in places that didn't go full MAGA. The leader of my country's biggest far right party is literally a lesbian woman!
