Yeah, all the court has to do is say it happened and say how it happened and guess who's going to be believed?
it's certainly isn't the accused going "but no, she consented to it, she likes it"
So yeah, you'll lose that one every time

If you assume the justice system won't follow it's own rules of course the only outcome is injustice, but that was not the context of the original point. You asked "how can you prove she wasn't forced" and that is legally never a problem that would arise in a common law system (or other western systems).

The corruption would take the form of pretending it was proven beyond a reasonable doubt that she did not consent.

You're correct, in most non-western Justice systems you would simply be put to death or jailed for life
 
What you fail to realize is they will use the same logic that they use for children they cannot consent because they are not fully aware of what's going on
And I can guarantee you, the more you push for this to become "normalized", The more you will see laws popping up with the term "unnatural acts" in it

what logic even is there

I believe that's part of his point... There is none. But "they" will scream bloody murder, and keep pushing the idea anyway, and it'd be political suicide to speak up against anti-human/animal-sex laws. Can't you just see the result when "Senator Blowhard objects to law designed to prevent people raping puppies!" starts getting splashed across the headlines? I may be crazy, but I'm thinkin' that Senator Blowhard is gonna become "Ex-senator Blowhard" in short order. They learn fast with something like that, and the stuff just slides on through...

Way too many with this idea think like a zoo. Not the general public. Y’all need to learn how to live 2 lives.

The irony is, they want to assert "human characteristics" like consent to justify their actions to the normies, but can't seem to realize that same mindset is what normies will use when prosecuting them, comparing animals to children mentally.

That’s what I mean. A lot of people don’t seem capable of separating our mind set and think like a normal person.

That assumes as best case that it doesn't blow up into a witch hunt and end up making things even worse - the way this sort of idiocy has done multiple times already...

pretty much this.
gotta mention donation money likely going into this on the "why care" list as well.
 
Regarding page 8: I expect both visible participants as well as all living beings in the park to be leashed after reading that inscription. ?‍♂️

WTF is a "non-persona civil union"?

It was a twist on the legal term of persona non grata. Since there would be some form of limited legal recognition of non-persona, or non person to person relationships in existence. Hence a new legal term would be required to explain it.

Doesn't work.

"Persona non grata", from your own cite, means a person who is/has become unwelcome - mechanism irrelevant. Note that the person is still a person - he's just not wanted around.

Put another way, the PERSON'S welcome becomes nonexistent. he/she/it doesn't become a "non-person", he becomes an UNWELCOME person. There isn't even an indication that the person ceases to be a person - Only that he's become someone you don't want around.

Words mean things, despite your wishes otherwise. Sorry, but in the context you're trying to use it, "non-persona" is as meaningless as if you'd used "glasprindilax" or "sarglimalorp" instead.
 
It is interesting because the protagonists and most characters out there in the comic are no humans and most humans deem the term "person" only in relation of humans (or representatives of humans, as example with specific traits - nowadays not that regularly anymore, which is a good thing). It doesn't revolve about being welcome, the simple definition of "person" is enough to leave a funny twist in it.

Either those characters see them self as "persons" but resemble animals - then it's hard to argue why their animal partners are "less persons" and have to wear a leash.. Or they see them self as animals / fursonas / whatever, then it layers their own existence distanced to the usual "person" and it's interesting why they don't have to wear a leash them self.

At the end it's all coming to a simple conclusion: Those who can declare the rules will exclude or include as they wish, independently of a given biological aspect or specific resembling.

Hmm, I don't get what a persona non grata would have to do with it, tho.

Except if it is linked to ignoring and breaking the given rule / law in a metaphorical sense: No matter what the protagonists or their animal partners would choose, if they don't leash one participant (aside the new non-person category, just plainly related to the rules given there and their animal-like occurrence), they would exclude this one from being welcome at the park and as such a persona or non-persona non grata, whatever it is at the end (animal, human, furry fursona..).

So as to fulfill it in the common sense of "leash your pets" it is necessary to declare a new form of "person" which basically includes fursonas and so on while excluding the "pets".

Or to define the "pet" aspect: one way would be - if it can't understand simple scientific or argumentative arguing based on abstract logic not linked to the thinking animal itself (direct classical conditioning shouldn't play a role here) - then it wouldn't resemble a person.

The "non-person" is one of multiple possibilities to declare it, but somewhat contrary to what many zoophiles would want: granting their animals a set of basic person (in this case human) rights which surpass animal rights. Be it for protection or for a certified relationship status like marriages.

Anyway, off to bed, four days of harshly timed events follow.

Exactly, and i think it was a brilliant point that mark wrote that little bit of world building into it.
 
After reading the first page of comments, yall can be harsh as hell. It's just a comic. They could have just taken the money and ran. The bar is pretty fucking low guys. Sure have some good expectations from the community but don't expect some kind of magical piece of art that's going to encompass every single person's experience on here. Especially for the future.

I haven't been here nearly as long as the obvi- super posters, but it seems like things get way too deep out of nowhere. OP just wanted to share a piece of art and I'm seeing people debating the existance of god like chill the fuck out boyos. hehe 0w0
