      Yeah, but the compression artifacts make the other one more authentic.

      Your version looks nice but my phone didn’t recognize the format and thus I had to re-download the jpgd one and send that to my friends instead

        webp is better for file size, but it’s a newer file type.

        Here’s a jpeg with better quality.

    Remember how Muammar Gaddafi acted all shocked when the crowd of angry people started bashing his head in??? I’m looking forward to seeing that same look on elons fat mishapen face. Dude looks like he half walrus, he should wear a toga to hide it better.

        This reads more like he hates Muslims/immigrants and is using antisemitism as a weapon to try and get Jewish people to hate them too.

          I have no idea how you could interpret it that way. Absolutely no one else did.

          Even the White House decided to comment on it: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67446800

          And he basically admitted it because he then did some really stupid damage control: https://www.lemonde.fr/en/pixels/article/2024/01/23/elon-musk-says-he-was-naive-on-antisemitism-as-he-visits-auschwitz_6456954_13.html

            The second paragraph is just that. Contempt for (western) Jewish people because they are (apperently) pro immigration and are now supposedly reaping the consequences of that.

            I’m not trying to excuse the anti-semitism, just this more of a comment on immigration that Jews themselves. Just like how these people attack the LGBT community for supporting Palestine.

              The comment he claimed was “the actual truth” included the suggestion that there’s a difference between white people and Jews. Most Jews are white.

                I mean that’s a whole different kettle of fish isn’t it? Race is basically nonsense with concrete definitions and white especially is all over the place in terms of who “counts”. And people who are ethnically Jewish fsce discrimination because of it, so there is non antisemitic reasons to differentiate them (although I’m 100% not saying that’s what happening here.)

                  People who are ethnically Jewish (I am one of them) face discrimination for it in large part because many white people consider us an “other” who is not white. Despite the fact that we benefit from our whiteness almost as much as they do.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)

Web of Links
  • !linuxmemes@lemmy.world: “I use Arch btw”
  • !memes@lemmy.world: memes (you don’t say!)
