A recent question from one of our members about the suitability of a comic which addresses political matters, which they were considering making a post about has reminded the Mods about what Scans_Daily is for, and it seems salient to mention it aloud.
"All art is political" is a given, and graphic storytelling is no exception. "Political" cartoons in newspapers etc have been a part of media for literally centuries.
Art also reflects the real world, metaphorically or directly, and that can make certain topics extra sensitive one way or the other.
Provided such comics do not promote hate or spread falsehoods without challenge or context, we have no issue with them being posted on S_D and encourage civilised dialogue.
Allowing them to be posted is making a political stance. NOT allowing them to be posted would still be a political stance, just a different one.
Our rules of behaviour apply to
all posts. We trust all our members will be able to follow them, and we're here if anyone has any concerns.
