ALL pornography is used to groom kids. Not just porn of cartoon characters. Groomers use anything and everything to groom kids. The way to stop that is not to crack down on art, the way to stop that is to crack down on GROOMERS. It's exactly the same as cars. People get hit and killed by cars, but the answer is not to crack down on cars, the answer is to crack down on BAD DRIVERS who use cars incorrectly. The art is not the problem, the groomers are the problem. Punish the groomers, not the artists or viewers.

ALL furry porn can be considered "sexualising animals". By that logic, ALL furry porn is zoophilia. The average non-furry person can't tell the difference between anthro and feral. Mainstream society sees both anthro and feral as being "sexualised animals" and "adjacent to zoophilia". And they are wrong on both counts. People who have sex with actual, real animals are zoophiles. People who fantasize about cute cartoon animals with sparkly anime eyes are not zoophiles, regardless of whether the sparkly cartoon animals walk on two legs or four. Feral artists are no more zoophiles than diaper fetishists are pedophiles.

If we ban porn of cartoon characters because "it can be used to groom kids", then by the same logic we have to ban all porn.

If we ban porn of quadruped characters, because it is "zoophilia-adjacent", then by the same logic we have to ban all furry porn altogether.

I'm seeing this idea that "feral art is bad" or "art of marketable cartoon characters is bad" more and more frequently on social media, and it's a very dangerous, neo-conservative, puritanical movement which threatens anyone who likes anything that isn't completely vanilla heterosexual real life humans.

I don't know what happened to "your kink is not my kink and that's okay", I don't know what happened to "everything that happens between consenting adults is okay", but I think we need to bring those ideas back. As long as you're not drawing actual real individuals without their permission, you should be allowed to draw anything.

No one should be made to feel like they're dangerous and unloveable because of completely fictional fantasies which they didn't even choose to have.

Don't give in to the anti-feral crowd. Because if you give in to them, then they will come for anthro next. And then they will come for kink in general. And then they will come for LGBT, in general. We are the first line of defense for society's sexual freedoms and we must not give up any ground.

Real life abuse is wrong.

Fantasy and fiction is okay.

That's that, there's no bluriness here, there's a clear sharp line. Defend that line.
