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 wish horseshoe theory was real. We can go even farther right than this, to literal kingdoms. Countries we often describe as going "too far left" became more hierarchical.
The horseshoe is absolutely real. Social democracy (like the stuff that candidate proposes) is on the middle, and both sides go out into a corrupt authoritarian government where the elites own everything.
I'd say it's more of a fact that there is no single axis political spectrum, and communists are not "further to the left" from democratic socialists, but just more towards authoritarianism.
