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.

How is it different in any way? Do you think that Netanyahu dying somehow ends the war in Gaza? Saves the Palestinian people?
Wishing someone dead comes from hatred. Hatred for their actions, for who they are. Netanyahu and Israel can be stopped. He can be put in jail. And I am saying this as a person who is sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, who supports them.
Hatred is hatred and it breeds more hatred.
We are talking about wishing death to someone, not you caring when someone dies.
You are doing the exact same thing that I talked about. Trying to justify to yourself that you are still "good" but still wishing death, hating.
See, this is a problem we commonly see as "tone policing". You can't really tell victims of actually cruel people to not dislike their oppressors. You're showing more of a concern with decorum and being respectable than the fact the people are being oppressed.
You are strawmanning. I never said anything about tone policing, or telling victims to like their oppressors. We are talking about wishing death on someone and about hatred.
