Furries: what do you think of them?

[Ifreann]

The internet gave the furries far too much shit for far too long when, from what I understand, they are one of the less toxic fandoms around.

Wasn't there that furrycon event where attendees hotboxed their rooms with vapes and defecated in the pool?

I wouldn't know, but "less toxic" doesn't mean "immaculate angels".

[Andronya]

I'm a furry lol. They're pretty cool. It's not inherently sexual, but sexual content exists. A lot of people in the community are incredible artists with an insane amount of talent.

By the way, have more respect for fursuiters. Those things run an average of several thousand dollars. Some suiters spend $10,000+, and of that most are not sexual either; some people just want to live as their fursonas.

Say... WHAT?!

[Floofybit]

Type 1: The Cosplayer - Basically just the equivalent of someone who does it occasionally, like a Comicon fan.
Type 2: The insane - Otherwise known as The UwU OwO Animals. These types of Furries are unhinged and downright insane.
Type 3: The Casual - 90% of furries I have seen fall into this category and are just somewhere in between type 1 and 2.

I must be type 2. I have my fair shair of UwU and OwO. However, I am not a furry. I'm a floof

[Ankuran]

They still have those? Hoo boy, that takes me back; way back to simpler times.

They're mesh cages covered in upholstered fabrics with various added appendages (depending on the anthro's species). Look up protogen fursonas, and tell me those wouldn't cost a pretty penny.

[Gepanzerberg]

Eh, on an individual level they're fine. When they get into packs, well, that's when they can get a bit...dangerous

[Juansonia]

Poll?

As for my opinion on furries, it is the same as my opinion as self-identifying catfolk - I may find it anywhere from cringe to based, but I support individual autonomy in these matters. If actual catfolk and/or sapient nonhuman animals were proven to exist, my opinions would probably change, however.

all furries must be rounded up and sent to maximum security prisons, and all furry-related propaganda messages, shows, etc must be censored for the interests of morality in this country, furries have been completely shunned by god and should be considered hostile combatants in all countries and we must declare war on furries

YOwOUwU seem a bit UwUnhinged.

Exactly.

That didn't take long.

Surprised that it wasn't the first reply to OP.

When I got a telegram from something New Order something Equus reading:

Goo-d day human. Iwt wouwd appeaw thawt uwu found youwsewf in whawt iws going tuwu become a gooey wastewand. Wun away whiwe uwu cawn, wesistence iws futiwe, youw convewsion awnd assimiwation iws imminent. Join us wiwwingwy awnd uwu wiww nowt be hawmed. Fight bawck awnd uwu wiww be buthewed awnd eaten.
Uwu have 3 choices, become goo, wun away ow became food. Which wiww iwt be?

I feel like I'm quite justified in being slightly miffed.

It was welcome telegram from the region we occupied, it was suppose to scare off defenders. It looks like it worked, kind of.

Uwu have a lot OwOf dedication to waiding.

I don't mind Furries, overall they are fine. Then again though it's difficult to speak about Furries when they are such a loose group of people. The only problem i am seeing is that there some individuals who just don't seem to have a sence of public awareness. Or how else you would say it.

Remind me you were therian correct?

[Juristonia]

I don't get it, but to each their own.

They're kinda in the same corner as juggalos, as far as I'm concerned; bit odd, but undeserving of the amount of hatred they seem to attract.

Ten THOUSAND dollars...
I could buy a used car with that amount of money where I live...

Well, the absolute high-end, and only the elite of the elite and rich furs spend (and are able to) that much.

[Emotional Support Crocodile]

I'm just really not interested in Tyson Furry and his family.

People sometimes spend big money on their hobbies.

Tell me gamers wouldn't spend that much on a steam library if they had that kinda disposable income, really. Guess it just comes down to perspective.

But regardless, IMO, Furries are ultimately harmless. Although weird, from an outsider POV, they're inherently diverse and left leaning. Which (I guess depending on your standing) is great. The Internet as a whole has a thing about bastardizing them by dragging out the small, unhinged but loud minority as their r/cringe pariah, but that's really just normal for any hatedom. Of course there is going to be a few shite eggs when there is literally millions of them of varying levels of freshness.

[Teletubieland]

Teletubies were the original furries, accept no substitutes.

[Varezia]

I'm fine with them as long as they don't represent a threat against Glorious Varezia

It that any stranger than people buying a sports car or a dozen guns or a high-end gaming PC or a case full of anime figurines?

If they wish to act as animals, I should be able to exercise the use of a hunting license

You want to murder people for partaking in a hobby you don't like?

It's definitely less weird than the anime figures. If nothing else, a fursuit will keep you warm.

Covid protection. No, really. This worked for quite a while.

because there's a possible market for it. Once we unlock the ways to splice and change the human genome, you will live to see it be used to make people turn into their sonas.

if normies want to hunt us, then we should be allowed to mawl the hunters owo

they're inherently diverse and left leaning.

they are indeed very diverse people, but they aren't left-leaning by default. Due to their openess and diversity, you will find basically every political view under the sun being carried by furries. From BLM transgirl possums, libertarian snakes, neo-nazi labradors, pro-russian jackals, and so on and on and on.
