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.

Narrow your argument says the dude who’s made 0 actual claims and instead chooses to do the old “you’re just wrong” approach straight out of the gate.
Thanks for the empty conversation
Not sure to what actually he's refering to but he's not wrong though. The foundation of ours "western liberal democraties" wasn't really the ideal we have today about what democracy is or even worst it wasn't either the preffered regime of a large part of the rulling classes at that time.
In order to not have an empty conversation :
The Political Power of Words: The Birth of Pro-democratic Discourse in the Nineteenth Century in the United States and France
“I don’t know what he’s talking about but he’s right”
Nah fam.
I'am pretty sure you get what I mean. I can't speak in the name of the guy and since he didn't developed his point or give references I can only assume what he mean't and I can be wrong, yet the statement in itslef is not wrong.
I developed a bit more my point and gave you a reference that leads to more references if you find the subject interessting...
It's kind of ironic from you to complain about and empty conversation and do the exact same thing right after.
Can you blame me? I can’t read your mind but your opening fucking statement to me was that you don’t understand what the guy was talking about but you agree with him.
Would that make you feel confident when talking to someone who’s trying to convince you of their viewpoint.
Don’t turn your nose up at me when you’re the one who shit on the sidewalk.
