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.

His racism and abhorrent views have leaked into his content, there is no separating the art from the artist here.
Didn't leak into this particular comic strip though
This is not a coincidence, though. I would not post or allow racist comics in this community.
I know about his racist rants, do you have some examples of affected comics? Too many unrelated results on Google

I don't get it though. The introduction and context outside the comic are insanely biased, but the comic itself, without context, seems fine? Granted I'm not American, so I might be missing something
