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.

This is a bit of a grey area because there are some asshole companies and asshole employees
I'd recently had an experience with a racist aldi employee only bag checking my mother because we where not one of the white people in line and that same aldi employee happened to lie about bag checking the white people ahead that we visibly saw her not check
This happened in Australia, but we live in one of the towns in Queensland not known for progresiveness
I'm planning to move to Brisbane or Melbourne once I am able too just to get away from all of the non progressive people here in my hometown
The comic isn't about boycotting locations as a whole, It's just done through a lens of someone working a minimum wage job who has to deal with people yelling at them. Especially about issues they're having and saying they're never going to shop there again. It doesn't impact them personally and getting angry at them personally won't help.
