stumbled across it while looking for our flag:
Since the website is out there in the wild, I'm bringing it to your attention, so that we can have a discussion. I really encourage you to read the whole thing. My opinions had to be scrapped because I started writing before reading to the end.
Speaking of which, if anyone is interested in the aforementioned opinions, here we go:
Looks like we have some sort of secession going on. And not just another group being created, this one has a completely different view on the matter. They refuse to put the animals first and focus on themselves, arguing this is going to let them "walk in the light", read, be open about zoophilia under their own names. The website doesn't explicitly state to be at odds with us, trying to argue for coexistence. However, it appears the reason they abandon bestiality altogether is because of external pressure that would otherwise force them into hiding. That pressure will not stop being applied to us. I'm afraid it's gonna end like with the furries. Not only that, there is already this kind of sentiment:

Even though the standard for accountability is our ZETA principles (bottom of the site). There is also apparent ignorance, since the consent issue, which is clearly going to end in major frictions between us is deemed "not worth fighting over". I guess it wouldn't if they truly don't care about animals, so whatever we do to our partners wouldn't matter to them, while we would have no problem either, since they don't interact with animals to begin with. But what zoo would ever reject the animals as irrelevant? I can't see anything good for us resulting from this. Maybe some people would be helped, it's too early for me to say what objective impact this new movement will have. But for us? Trouble at best.Kindness and Transparency
Show mercy, but be wary of people who have practiced bestiality in the past. People should be able to get away from the pro-c zoo community. People change. People make mistakes. Hold people accountable for their actions but be fair in judgement. Be reserved and supportive.
