Here is a Polandball comic I made, hopefully others can make some aswell and post it here or link to others they find online! :)

Text is not very clear, don't be surprised if this gets deleted

Yeah, 150 kb limit. Had to reduce filsize to post, hopefully your able to zoom to read it? :S

The text basically is that polandball has a chill morning in the woods, meets migrants going through the woods telling him they only want to go to Germany cause it's better. Then flashbacks are repeated about traumatic Events coinciding with Germany/Prussis «being better and Word better» triggering anger from being reminded about it. And tells vietball «they want jungle, we give them jungle» basically: «They don't give a ****, I won't give a ****»

Then building of wall commences with helmet on and words of EU ball falling on deaf ears

Love it! :)

I don`t! Their sense of humor seems strange to me. Simply speaking, it is not funny to me. I don`t know why. That is why I can`t take part in the discussion. Sorry. :):):)

Well...often you need the historical background for better understanding....for that are the threads to the comics, they help!

(And who doesn't love Reichtangle...really!:)

It zooms a bit, but I can't read the smaller text :/ I don't know what was the original size of the file and what programme you used for saving, but instead of resizing you could try to save it in lower quality (or try the combination of both) - this is how I prepare photos for the photo riddles thread, for example.

I don`t coz I don`t even know what it is. :):)

Me neither, I had to google it lol:

villains.fandom.com/wiki/Reichtangle_(Polandball)

@BB, who's that ninja "mother"? lol

Prussia of course.... :)

Prussia, Poland and Lithuania formed a union, republic - Rzeczpospolitą.

@pawian
It originates from a comic about a guy making fun of a Pole that cleaned toilets in Germany.

Said German ignoring the fact why said Pole had to clean toilets there and not work in Poland, and also dismissing Polands past achievements. Trying to mock somebody having a lousy situation basically.

Then spiralled and started to include other countries as balls, it's a cultural satire belonging to the internet community basically. Many Poles tend to dislike the upside down of the flag with Polandball, but it's a symbol of satirical freedom expressed through the comic.

The humour of doing it and it's origin was meant to **** off Poles, out of ignorance of the white and read symbolism. Another subtle attempt at dowgrading and eliminating Polish group belonging which has it's origins from pre-Poland times in assimilating Western Slavs to German speaking community.
