    It was an extension of sexpest adventurism across the planet which amounted to "local people have a slightly different skin color and colonial laws apply differently to them and don't protect them, therefore :awooga: :us-foreign-policy: :hypersus: "

      People still behave this way about cat girls, or any kind of anthro animal-person. The concept that they would be lesser minded and that laws would apply differently to them.

      Just reminded myself of the /r/socialism drama when they banned catgirls. Glad I wasn't a mod that made that decision.

        :my-hero: has had a long standing "haha just kidding... unless" thing going where he talks about his desire for "genetically engineered catgirls for domestic use." :JB-shining-aggro:

          I wonder if this ends up in the "violent rhetoric" statistics.

            I've said this before to reactionary weebs and other sexpest creeps: "so you want a fusion of cat and human traits. Have you ever seen what cats do when someone touches them when they don't want to be touched?" :knifecat:

            Sometimes they get the point at least a little.

              And do you want to clean human sized puke out of your shoes?

                I'm not actually sure what cat traits they think would transfer over, if any, outside of ears and tails that can easily be worn as external accessories, no genetic grafting required.

                I guess them saying they want people genetically designed to be ignorant and docile wouldn't be as socially acceptable for the time being. :kombucha-disgust:
