>>180679That is a rabbit hole as deep as it is wide.
On the very tip of the iceberg you have cartoon characters and those that like them. Below the surface it is nasty and ugly with no redemption what so ever.
"Furries" try to lump everything into its own world view no matter what. So what, you watched Bugs Bunny growing up, to a "furry" that would be enough to classify you as a furry. To a furry the same is true for bronies, just because they like a show with talking cartoon horses, "It must be furry!", They exclaim. Sad truth is that it isn't.
Much like a church which has its own doctrine, core beliefs and practices so does furries. It is a cult in its own right as it has its own rules, beliefs, attitudes and values which it must spread and encapsulate everything into its very twisted world view and if it doesn't fit into that view, it will forcefully try to indoctrinated it to fit its view or try to destroy it.
It isn't just about liking certain themes or characters, it is an entire dedicated culture, with many levels which are just as more twisted the deeper you go. There are some that legitimately believe that they are "hybrids" either with having the "spirit" of that of an animal or their parents fucked the dog and they are the literal sons of a bitch. They call themselves "Otherkin" but I call them "Insane" especially when they so whole heartily go into public wearing collars and pretending they are dogs. It is a metal condition.
Sex is the theme of everything be it sexual or not, sex sells after all and they know it. Any one that used to draw SFW art would quickly realize that they can't profit off of it and would either quickly get out of it, others fall deeper into the trap and become obsessed with pornography to the absolute of degeneracy. What ever fetish you have, it is all there, nothing is sacred, even in public space. Sex is always the highlight in any conversation, from sports to politics, the conversation will always be about sex. It is no surprise given that 90% conciser themselves as either Gay or Bi-sexual. It has become a sexual revolution and they see themselves as being at the forefront of it.
Their costumes they ware seem innocent enough, just a themed convention one might presume. But what they call "FurSuits" are not just a theme like you would see others cosplay at a Starwars or anime convention, it is there very mirror of their personality, their "fursona" as they call it. It isn't some other character they are trying to play but one they created to how they see themselves. They don't identify as human, they identify as an animal. They aren't playing, they are living. When they go to a convention to them, it is as if they can let their "true" selves out and they act and play as animals, barking, howling, and dry humping in public. Oh laws still exist, can't say they don't know that and are completely "animal". I am just waiting for that day when the Merkle excuse comes out "They didn't know better, it isn't in their culture" as she claims for migrant rapes. When a bunch of guys start fucking on the streets in animal costumes, that is when you know we all living in hell.
To the public they always try to act like the innocent victim of accusation. "Oh we dont' fuck in fursuits" they say. "It so hot in them, you can't go 2 seconds, much less have the energy to fuck in one." Yet we all know why they wear shorts, to hide the "Strategically placed holes" which they expose themselves so they can fuck." It doesn't take a genius to figure what they do. They even tell on themselves and brag as sex is always on their mind. We all know about the wild room parties that take place at their conventions.
But that isn't even the worst of it. Sex used to be just one of the major things about them, very LGBT and liberal, it was a sexual revelation for them. Now it has turned into something more which it has become a way to indoctrinate others into communism. Half the entire fandom has turned into Anti-Fa, actively recruiting. It is a front for terrorism. "Oh come on, half, sure, right" so many are in disbelief but it is really something else that they too don't hide it. They had a spasm when Trump won, all their art reflected this if not their blogs and journals. Now there isn't a single one that isn't advocating violence against Republicans like Maxine Watters. It is even more hysterical when you see so many furries that used to try to lump bronies in with them, now activle attacking bronies on the ground that bronies lean more right than they do.
The saddest thing about cultures and subcultures is sometimes you don't see how deep something is until it starts to stare back at you. Furries are poison.
