    When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, […] knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains.

    Unethical is a matter of prospective and degrees.

    This pig is obviously a capitalist libertarian private property owner stand-in. If you exploit other people’s labor by paying them a wage lower than the value of their labor, you are effectively stealing from them. Profits are theft via extortion.

    You may say “they both agree to this, that’s what makes it ethical”. I disagree. If you are held at gunpoint, you will do what the person says, it doesn’t mean it was willing. This is called being “under duress”. If not working for a property owner means that you face homelessness, starvation, and police violence; your life is similarly threatened.

    My understanding is that a lot of furries are on the autism spectrum and use the outfit as a way of more “safely” have social interactions. The fetish aspect of it is less pronounced than what you’d assume based on the internet.

    Either way, let people live and have fun. If some people fucking suck and don’t understand, that’s their problem.
