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.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Most people have no choice but to engage.
That is such dogshit. You can buy so many things that are made by people getting fair wages and humane working conditions. Don’t act like you HAVE to buy stuff from sweatshops. You have a choice.
Its a tough choice. $40 ethical chirt vs $9 kmart shirt. I do feel bad when shopping at kmart, but either i need a better job, or live off 2 shirts and just do washing every day
I have serious doubts about anything labelled as "ethical".
It's like every year some investigative journalist reveals that the labels and prices on promised ethical products are bullshit.
Buy second hand at thrift stores and there’s a lot of facebook groups dedicated to giving away free stuff
Where do you live where K-Mart is still a thing?
Australia still has kmart
