From Wikipedia: There were at least three times as many women of marriageable age as men now in the town and he made polygamy compulsory[3] and he himself took sixteen wives.

See, this is why I say furries have a utility (being that this is an early work of what we call the 'furry fandom'). They are the counter-culture to normality itself, and it actually gives them the ability to critique shit that could otherwise be untouchable by anyone with reputation (or dignity). They are, effectively, impervious to social attacks because they have socially self-immolated. You can't do more damage to them than they have already done themselves.
They are also a good measuring stick for authoritarian over-reach. If the government seeks to wipe them out, the government is wasting it's time focusing on irrelevant people at the expense of it's real responsibilities and should be destroyed & replaced for it's maleficence. If the government seeks to endorse and uplift them, it's detached itself from reality and should be destroyed & replaced for it's rejection of the social contract..
Humans have been telling "animal fables" since they began telling stories. Ever read the Native American (mostly Navajo and Inuit) stories of the "Before Times"? Totally "furry". Basically, their stories and myths of the "beginning" is this: The other species were basically "anthros", who did things the way humans do now, but still had their fur and tails and shit. The point of them was to figure out how do things the hard way, so that they could teach Humans how to do things once they show up. Then, once humans are around, and taught how to do things, the Others just sort of "step aside" and let humans dominate them.
Then you have Aesop's fables, and the entire Reynard the Fox cycle of the European middle ages.
In times of heavy censorship, one might use animal fables as a stand-in for humans. In times of low literacy, the use of animal imagery (such as in Catholic churches) help as a short-hand to story-telling. You can get away with a lot more if you don't use humans. Look at the current bullshit, if you want to say anything unpopular, do not use human characters, because people will be nitpicking the fucking casting otherwise. Also, you can flay Bugs Bunny all you like, but by gods don't bop a nigger in the head, or show them in any realistic light (with big-ass lips or anything.)
Oh, also teaching stories. The Big Bad Wolf of Red Riding Hood would have been understood by medieval children to mean the Bad Men who lived in the woods, who were bandits, rapists and murderers (and sometimes cannibals, probably thanks to vit B12 deficiency). And one of the longer Navajo stories I vaguely remember, was a flat-out comedy starring Coyote and an insulting piece of shit (literally, I'm serious) that is meant to teach you how to make nets and fish in a river.
Oh, also, see "Bestiaries". Books about animals that weren't about animals at all, by monks who'd never seen the animals in question, and included mythological beasts and beings. They were more about religious education than anything else, but like the Reynard stories, both codified, preserved, and passed on various stereotypes about other species that have been useful for "code" since then.
Watch people's minds bend when they find out that the griffin is just a visual shorthand for Jesus .... and this is why it appears as the beast that pulls the chariot that brings Dante to Heaven at the end of Purgatorio ...
I know all this stuff, I'm just saying that the Furry Fandom is a particularly new and mostly American cultural phenomenon. The concept of Anthropomorphism is obviously much older than that.
rofl at the way they all run as if he's radioactive...
"He's disagreeing with us, using the power of blackness!!! WHAT THE HELL, is he malfunctioning?! I thought these things were always on our side! FLEE"
With idpol having infected the zeitgeist this much, any black people who are not on board with progressive ideology needs to realise what a nuclear weapon their skin colour can be, just like this man. Telling them to bow and kneel, haha.... I mean he's right, why wouldn't they if it's all just about giving black people the respect they've been denied??? Right...?
It's still quite dangerous, since if they outnumbered him sufficiently enough (say, 40:1) I suspect they'd still happily rabbit punch him and steal his phone. That's the only recourse this pussified ideology has.
Every dumb fuck condescending white bitch that thinks she's woke
That aged amazingly well.
Truth doesn't age, it's immortal.
It's been the same retards for 50 god damned years.
I think the retards started with the French Revolution .. well, they didn't start there, but that's as far as I've traced 'em back at this point.
Look up the Munster Commune. The Anabaptists did to Munster in 1534 what the Dems are doing to NYC now.

It's always about the perverted stuff, isn't it?
I hope De Blasio gets to experience the enforced polygamy in Chelsea.
That's absolutely true. They're Jacobins.
"Who do you think I am, Geraldine?"
ROFL!
See: Flip Wilson
Sigh. Everyone I thought was funny is dead. Or in jail.

A fucking classic.
"Geraldine" refers to a Flip Wilson character, btw.
