RR Ep 4 - No to Political Correctness!
Friday Apr 13, 2018
Friday Apr 13, 2018
Originally aired on February 10, 2018
In this episode, we debut our intro song and our group website. Our topics this time are centered around the theme of political correctness going too far both inside and outside of furry.
Topics for this episode include:
Furnal Equinox 2018 cancels FirestormSix's DJ set, prompting him to not attend this year. The con scraps the fursuit parade. Is this a case of cultural appropriation too far? And is the justification of the parade being scrapped fair because it's a logistics nightmare?
We make fun of Leafland... err, Canada, where they changed the national anthem to something gender neutral. The Furry Raiders can throw in a few improvements, much better than the Canadian Government ever could. Plus more ribbing due to Canada's messed up prisons
We discuss whether redesigning childhood favourite furry cartoons such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is such a good idea.
Some drama happening because of the sexuality of certain Harry Potter characters and Rowling having a few hiccups about it.
