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.

The American imperialists do a splendid job at denying their history, and on top of that, they cynically profess values like democracy and freedom that they don't even practice. (lemmy.ml)

Another funny myth that a lot of Americans that I've seen cling too is that they are incredibly skilled at war, that they have the best military in the world since it's inception and that they can defeat any opponent. A quick review of history doesn't bear this out as most of the wars that America has "won" have had them be part of a coalition which they may or may not have joined rather late in the game. Even their vaunted revolution required help from a military superpower i.e. the French.
