    Holy shit that armor and poleaxe are shockingly historically accurate.

    Talk about going the extra mile!

          There was indeed that one time.

          What was the second time?

            There was Caterina Sforza, who personally took Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome and held up a Vatican conclave.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caterina_Sforza

            To be fair she might not have been wearing armor at the time on account of being seven months pregnant when taking the fortress.

                Here’s an index of European noble houses, which includes knights alongside other members of the nobility.

                  Neat! How many of those are women in medieval armor?

                  Just, you know, women were not eligible for knighthood throughout medieval times.

                  Is this you arguing that female knights were as common as male knights? I’m just checking what we’re arguing here exactly.

                  If so, how many female warriors at all took part in:

                  A) The Napoleonic wars

                  B) Alexander the Great’s conquest

                  C) The Battle of Kadesh

                  Are we arguing that women were always as violent as men and were never excluded or subsumed in society since the dawn of literally “man”? Is that what we’re doing?

                    … The fuck?

                    You seem really offended that women were underrepresented in historical conflicts. You’re going to have a hard time finding anyone who says otherwise.

                    What I am saying is that women have worn armor (even for non-ceremonial purposes) at a few points in history.

                    At the end of the day, you’re the one getting butthurt about a comic on the internet.

                Are you really doing the “oh, so you like Beyblade? Name every character from the animated series” kind of knowledge quiz? Come on, bud. I know you can be better than that.

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.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

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!)
