Too many these days *will* pander, a number of Furry
"Ar-tists" among them. Another reason I'm here and not
wasting my time on AFF or that garbage.

Bravo. But the question is where they will be. Right
out in front (where they ougut to be) as both fine
artwork and expressions of artistic freedom, or are a
bucha SOB's gonna force us into mouse holes and dark
corners, where we've already been for too long?
All of us have lived thru post-it note censorship and
all that rubbish.
Point is you give these jokers an inch, and they'll
take it *all*. They're already doing it, and it can
only get worse.
And we're not only unprepared, we are somewhat
unwilling, thinking that some kind of magik or luck of
the draw is going to "protect" us here furever.
Your talent, artworks, and yes, those who enjoy them
deserve better. All I have ever advocated is that we
stop being helpless, and make ourselves something
better, that no one will take away from us, at least
not without a fight.
Lori, Onyx, and Natasha are in their own way rebels
against convention and a straight jacketed "Morality"
This same "Puritanical ethic" (The morbid fear that
someone, somewhere is having fun) is very much abroad
these days, and like the flu in winter, it will get
worse before we see another spring.
And if we give these yo-yo's an inch, our spring may
not come, ever. For it is the intent of some of these
people not only to stop time, but to make it flow as
much backwards as some of their own thinking.
We are waiting to become victims, living on a bed of
nails, afraid to move, lest we be puctured, and
knowing there is, just a step away, someone who wants
to come along and stand on our chests, wearing a full
suit of "morality armor."
I've never been a good victim. I don't wanna see
anyone here start being one now, or ever.
Stay well, keep up the good work and have fun,
Roci
