On one hand, this has got to be public trolling. On the other, it’s still a bill calling for a classification of people to be removed from society. If it weren’t so scary it would be funny.
Fascism demands outlandish “enemies” in order to justify punishment as policy. Usually, no suitable ones exist, so they are created through outlandish fantasy.
This is a weird amount of preoccupation to have with a subculture of mostly queer people who just watched too much Disney and read too much Warrior Cats or Animorphs as kids.
In general furries embrace their cringe and are unashamed of the stuff they enjoy, can’t say I see anything near as wholesome from the company you keep when you’re hand wringing about sexual degenerates that should be banned from schools.
Bullshit. That’s the same shit used against drag queens and crossdressers. People who were instrumental to lgbtq history. I’d have thought someone “not straight” would’ve known better.
Why don’t you go lump ‘gamers’ in with us as well? Shit, let’s just put any random thing under the umbrella and call hating it homophobia. Let’s make homophobia such a meaningless word that we can never call it out when we experience it.
Conservatives must love you for doing their work for them.
And neither do most furries. It’s like saying gamers are fucked up because they wanna fuck Lara Croff and cosplay Let Me Solo Her. The weirdest parts of a community aren’t the only parts, or even the biggest parts. Plenty of furries just like watching Looney Tunes and Zootopia and making OCs.
The furries=sexual deviants line was what they once said about Trekkies, and it was as true then as it is now.
Put way better than I could say it, thank you. As somebody who’s been on the edge of that community for years as an artist, the hatred they get has always baffled me.
I can even agree that for a lot of cartoony media, depicting people as animals can give it a really cool/cute style. A lot of people have fond memories of reading the Redwall books, which took that to a logical and mature extension. But, having close association to all of the sexual stuff is where it gets bizarre and unlikable.
I’ll even go out on a limb; I really enjoyed Lauren Faust’s My Little Pony series. I thought there was some fun, inventive writing humor, good VA, and smooth animation; for a time. But there’s undeniably a ton of people that made obsession with that series really weird.
Edit: would like to clarify that I don’t have anything against furries. But saying there isn’t a sexual aspect about it, is not true.
I have a few furry friends as well, and they all are into the sexual aspect of it, one used to be a roommate, I always got a chuckle out of the animal noises they would make when having sex.
The sample they used is likely not representative of the whole fandom; they only interviewed 334 furries in the study, from a fandom made of millions of people. And the participants were all male, too.
…I can’t be the only one who actually reads these things, right?
I didn’t say there was no sexual aspect to it, but I stand corrected that there’s some sexual aspect involved for the vast majority (at least of the men they interviewed). I wish the rest of that study wasn’t locked behind a paywall, 'cause I’m curious about the details now. I wanna know what they mean by “some aspect.” However, it’s disingenuous/misleading to say that furries are attracted to animals, as that’s zoophilia and is on the same level as pedophilia. Grouping the two together like that is like “MAPs” claiming they’re part of the LGBT. My general experience with furries is that the animal fuckers are treated on the same level as the Nazi furs.
Whenever this kind of thing comes up, though, I can’t help but think about the internet outrage from when they made Lola Bunny’s boobs smaller in the new Space Jam movie and wonder how many of those people are the same people who call furries gross, lmao.
Hey, is there some reason you changed the phrase that the researchers very consistently used, which was anthropomorphic animals, which they defined in the very first sentence as being like Bugs Bunny? You get how that is not the same as looking at a living rabbit and feeling sexual arousal, right?
I guess “most furries want to fuck characters like Bugs Bunny!!” was just obvious shit everyone already knew.

it’s both fucking insane and scary. remember that furry hate has always been thinly veiled homophobia
Um no?
Im not straight, I think furries are fucked up. I just wouldn’t ban them for it.

You can not be homophobic and have similar thoughts on a subject with a group that is.
Very little has a strictly black and white separation in this world, it’s all shades of grey.
Go tell that to uranium
Gays. Black people. Non Christians. Your exact statement has been said about all of them.
Saying something is fucked up has been said about a lot of things. I’m sure there’s someone who’s said it’s fucked up to put pineapple on a pizza.
Also you do realise those are things people are born as? Whereas no furry was born a non-human.
The fact you would even compare them is a a revile as 4Chan trolls trying to link “maps” to LGBT.
Furries don’t think they’re non human hon.
Furrys don’t claim they’re actually animals.

You’d be surprised. I’ve encountered a lot of gay people who are against the ‘T’ or the ‘BT’ in LGBT.
Being gay certainly makes you more likely to be progressive, but I’ve learned it definitely doesn’t guarantee it.
Plenty of gay people are regressive, hateful fuckwits.
Sexuality and gender are not the same as an animal.
Don’t compare them.

… Hey, how bad are your delusions that you think chocolate is people?
Oh cool, you think youre the first gay homophobe.
Sorry bud, that medal got taken from you decades ago
Furry is not a orientation, it’s not homophobic to dislike them.
Oh, sorry, did I use the wrong hate term for you? Didnt mean to upset the bigot, my b
Oh did you upset yourself?
Maybe next time don’t insult LGBTQ+ people and the struggles we’ve been through.
Im bi, dumbass. Oh, wait, let me guess. Youre a cunt to us too, right?
Oh no, boo hoo, the bigot doesnt get to hide behind their identity to shit on others! Fuck off, and grow up, you shitty little hypocrite.
What do you think the B stands for?

You don’t like Bugs Bunny?
I don’t want to fuck Bugs Bunny or be him.
I like pizza, I’m not a Pizza-ie.

Incorrect, most furries are attracted to animals.

2000 is considered the perfect size for surveys. Anymore and you’re wasting resources on diminishing margins of error.
Well out of curiosity I checked the reddit furry sex groups, hundreds of thousands of members. But sure, the study is wrong.
As long as they aren’t into fucking animals or children, I don’t give a fuck.
I didn’t mean to offend you furries, but the sexual aspect is a huge part of it, not sure why you are in denial. https://furscience.com/research-findings/appendix-1-previous-research/summer-2020/
Bruh, take anything and you can probably find a sexual aspect about it.
There’s a sexual aspect about Sports Illustrated. I’m not going to turn around and say everyone who subscribes to Sports Illustrated is a pervert.
Facts. I mean, I know I don’t need to, but I’m going to quote Rule 34 in its entirety:
Take anything and I guarantee you, someone, somewhere, has sexualized it. And if not, there is Rule 35, which states
Some can interpret this as, “If you discover that something has no porn, you have a responsibility to make it.”

If you read my comment intead of just rage replying you would have saw the part I said I wasn’t talking about fucking animals.
Idk man that doesn’t quite sound like hate to me. More of a sting dislike. I think the point still stands.
