The left is its own worst enemy. Whether or not this is a good thing remains open to interpretation.

That could be said of most ideologies though - they are their own worst enemies in some cases because they fail to attract people for their own interest.

It's the internet, everybody likes anime.

Catgirls and Catboys don't count. :^)

r/socialism banned some furry comics because they were sexist or something I'm not entirely sure and there was a big uproar over it

That's far from the best reason to ban furry comics.

Good, very good. Furries are a result of bourgeoise moral degradation.

Not even furry comics. The artist in question is the person who drew the subreddit's banner, and the comic was essentially a political soapbox for her (she is socialist) but since the characters had cat ears and tails that's a no-no. No sexualization or anything, just had cat ears and tails for whatever reason.

Very true. I blame the French.

There aren't many things you can't blame on the French, English, or both.

Everything above (and including) 1 is furry and therefore petit bourgeois decadence.
Where is the good Proletarian morality when you need it?

In that it can (barely) function but not compete with the productivity and efficiency of capitalism.

I am not knowledgeable on this discussion. All I know is that the artist didn't sexualize them and it was pretty much entirely a stylistic choice.
