What was the moment the furry fandom really started going downhill?

Hey, guys. Sorry, I just tried to start a formal evidence thread over yonder >>714078780, but I didn't see this one and I'm happy to do it here. Keep in mind I only have about an hour to give you my undivided attention, but I want to assemble as much evidence of what we hashed out in the last few threads as I can just so it's easily accessible. Replies to this post are going to include what evidence I can find for the new connections.
