No real opinion on them, I've known a few in the past online and I have no issue with it... I still remember when early in the NS RP community whenever a Furry nation tried to RP people would always declare war and try to genocide them... strange times.

I find furries to be rather strange. I suppose they aren't harming anyone directly, therefore I see no reason to stop them from engaging in their activities.

My opinion on furries is going to be incredibly biased (Spoiler alert: I am one) but we're really mostly a super harmless bunch. There are some.... significantly weirder parts of the fandom but that's just a reflection of human sexuality in general. And it's not all about sex, not even mostly really. Really if people didn't want furries they shouldn't of filled cartoons with anthropomorphic animals and had their kids watch them. And we're already well on our way to breeding the next generation of them, looking at you Zootopia.

But, then trans are also idiots, they are the gender they were born with, not another one.
Players who play NS are idiots, you are the average joe, not a leader of a nation.

Listen here, mr "I-think-furries-are-idiots".

Humans are different from each other. Some like for example to dress up like anthropomorphic animals. Some like to draw those. Some even do both. They do what they like.
Now, I am not a furry, but a supporter of furries. I think they can do whatever the fuck they like to do and I have no problem with that. Calling furries idiots because of the animal hybrids are like calling all Germans for nazis.

If you don't like them, leave them the fuck alone!

Depends what you mean with furries. If you mean half-human, half-animal creatures, then they are ok. In fact, I like realistic furries (or anthros), because in furry society there is also homeless folk, war veterans, injured soldiers, sociopaths, persons with high weight, killers, thieves, etc. I can't stand too beautiful furries. When I try to construe a realistic furry society, it turns out into a society, in which life is harsh and usually short.
However, if you talk about human furry fandom, then I simply don't understand some of those peeps. BUT, they can do what they want, unless they harm someone.

Given that the social media account behind cereal brand character Tony the Tiger has started blocking people because they keep sending the account sexually explicit messages on Twitter, I can see why this may be the case.

My views on furries are quite negetive, because of amount of furries that are perverted zoophiles with social issues that are obsesesed with ""yiffing"

I used to be a furry, because I found the concept of anthropomorphic animals awesome, but there were too many creepy zoophiles that made being a furry undesirable, so I stopped being one.

By that logic we should hate white people (The KKK), black people(Aggresive BLM), Anime Lovers(Weaboos), Americans and British(Imperialists), Russians(Communists), Germans(Nazis), and many more.
But we don't, do we?
We don't hate a group of people for a loud minority, because it doesn't represent the whole group.
