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.

You mean the sex trafficker who went to prison for exactly that?

No, I mean the president who has been found liable for SA, and countless other accusations and blatantly obvious corruptions around this trafficking ring.

I wish the guy who assaulted me went to prison for it... or anything, really. Instead, when I reported it, they just took photos of my extensive bruising and lacerations on my neck from strangulation, "lost" the clothes with DNA I gave them, and did nothing to the man. They asked me multiple times if I was gay, as if they didn't believe I wasn't (as if that'd even matter).

I agree. It's horrible that this happened to you. This is a huge problem, and it's not exclusive to male victims like you seem to think.

"But women have that problem too!" is literally an "All lives matter" take, is it not?

You're truly a lost cause here. Won't be engaging any further with this disengenous argument.

I'm sure there's way better examples than the president. He's in an entirely unique position and can do things that would land anyone else in prison.

No, the "all lives matter" comparison seems spot on. No problem is unique to men or women or people of color. Yet some problems are clearly worse for those groups.

You're acting like I'm saying women are universally believed and supported. In reality, it's just much better for them, even if not perfect.
