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.

Personally, I was turned off by you saying that the other commenter was being "A bit disingenuous." just because you disagreed with them, despite the fact that I otherwise agree with your point.
I stand by that. It is a bit disingenuous (purposefully or ignorantly) to call 11% “en masse”.
So you genuinely think that the commenter was being insincere by making that remark?
I don’t attribute it to malice. A misleading claim is just that, misleading, whatever their intentions.
It’s alright if we disagree.
The problem is that the word "disingenuous" does not mean "misleading", it means "insincere". So when you say that someone is being "a bit disingenuous", you are necessarily commenting on their character, not just their claim.
