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.

Ukrainians disagree. And they are the ones that matter. If you want to live in slavery or without political rights, it is your choice, of course.
Well yeah, it's up to them, but I don't think they're monolithic. They'll eventually negotiate once they run out of men or weapons. I don't think they'd be slaves if Russia captured Kyiv either. Perhaps without political rights, but that wasn't much different than before.
I think that's exactly the point - they know how it was before, and they know how it can be by looking in neighboring EU.
Not worth dying for imo

Liberty is practically a myth
That depends where you live, what your cultural upbringing is. If you are from Russia, sure. There, it is a myth, and democracy is something to scare people by.
