No need for a debate on furries. It's all fairly simple: all furries are wonderful... except this one.

If you find dressing up as a non-human being sexy, then that shows the problem in the furry groups.

Eh, for most furries there's nothing sexual about their fursonas. It's just something fun and cute they do. Like being a Trekkie but without the cool sci-fi mythos and with really, really, really expensive costumes.

I find the idea of anthropomorphic animals to be pretty cool actually.

And now that I think about it, I kinda created my own fursona by complete accident by making this nation.

Whatever the verb form of furry that I'm allowed to say on here is a bourgeois degeneracy. It's excessive and wasteful.

For a game i play there are sometimes a lizard race you can play. It is usually named something akin to Does - the - Thing. So for examplw soothes the wounds or drinks the booze.

The most edgy name ive seen a while out of that was Betrays - Its - Kin. :?

But in the end i cant care what people like to do in such fashions in the end.

People like community, acceptance, and friendship. The fur community is one of the most of that out there, woosh.

In that they demonstrate how far anarchism has fallen.

Yes. :P

Then to be quite honest, you are probably not a good socialist. The freedom to be seuxally weird is being placed in a lot of SJ left discourse alongside issues that actually important in social life which is distressing.

Emanating from the base of a rotting economy and fetid institutions the stink of late capitalist bourgeois degeneracy emerges, like some deadly miasma, to poison our hearts and minds at this pivotal moment of struggle. But we are no longer defenceless! The Committee for Proletarian Morality now stands as a great bulwark of the toiling classes against the onrushing bourgeois decadence and degeneracy that emanates from the dastardly alt-right, the ostensibly centrist liberalism and quite sadly our own leftist comrades.

Members of the Committee pledge to:

1. Tut disapprovingly at individualist libertine hedonism, and where relevant dismantle it's philosophical premises.
2. Relentlessly disparage furries and their ilk.
3. Say "that's weird", or words to that effect, when people are talking about weird shit.
4. Uphold and promote a rigorous and vitalic proletarian morality, based in the common sense traditions of our class.

We call on all moral comrades of the left to join the committee, and advertise it as demonstrated above. Together we can overcome degeneracy! For the promotion of proletarian virtue and the prevention of bourgeois vice! Onwards to the final victory!

Now I ain't no leftie muh socialist friend, but I am against that degeneracy stuff — may I join this committee of yours? (Read in hillbilly accent).

The purpose of the church ceremony is very different. Dressing in expensive fursuits and doing whatever the hell they do in them is for their enjoyment. Church ceremonies are not for the audience's pleasure.
