        Usually that or rispettare le donne. Often after hitting or disrespecting them.

    Basically the same with China.

    Schools in America fly the American flag and kids have to pledge allegiance to it? Normal.

    The BBC (a state sanctioned organisation from the Crown) being a major source of information in the UK? Normal.

    Social media platforms being broadly influenced and manipulated by their American owners? Nothing wrong happening here.

    Chinese schools raise the flag and kids sing the national anthem? Indoctrination!

    Chinese media being heavily controlled by the state? Propoganda!

    Tiktok being manipulated and controlled by their chinese owners? Espionage! The fact that China bans foreign social media platforms? Censorship and control!

    I might watch more American movies if we took more cues from Bollywood. Those boys know how to get down!

      i agree. as a side note, I searched this song on the youtubes and this is the first time i’ve heard this song in english. I like it better in spanish but that might be because I’m more used to it that way

      Too bad that Bollywood knows jackshit about telling great stories. I am not sure about the current Hollywood too.

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.
  • AI-generated comics aren’t allowed.
  • Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
