Let’s not tolerate narrowing the spectrum of ways people can enjoy their lives. That’s what totalitarian regimes do. They prohibit this and prohibit that, and in the end, you are only allowed to watch the approved movies, listen to the approved music and wear the approved clothes. You can stop expressing yourself, you can stop engaging in your hobbies, you can stop living the way you want to live, you can survive. But it sucks all happiness from your life.
I’m not saying you shouldn’t be able to do anything.
I’m just saying that equating a hobby to things people literally cannot change about these is absolutely horrible.
Going “well the transes have support but who is supporting furries” is stupid.
Yes, tons of furries are queer, this does not mean that to be a furry is to be queer, it’s a square and rectangle kinda thing.
Get your rocks off any fucking way you want but equating liking cartoon animals to being trans, while there is an active push for trans genocide world-wide is fucking disgusting.
There will never be wide persecution or institutional oppression against the tony the tiger fan club.
I’m all over this comment chain. It rather bothers me seeing this kind of bigotry get deployed against a queer subculture, and a rather long standing one, because it’s the same oppression that gets put on us from the outside, and it is especially galling when I see queer people do it to other queer people. I presume that TERF lesbians calling trans people “predatory men invading women’s spaces and misguided sisters” is something you can’t stand at least as much as I do? Please recognize that painting furries as sexual degenerates is the same thing. Maybe I’m at a nexus of the gay furry community, but so many of the queer people in my locale are also part of the furry subculture, and, no, their existence is not purely sexual, and, yes, furry is a pretty core aspect of their identity and culture.
Because being a furry is a hobby, engaging in a hobby doesn’t make you a minority.
No matter what happens, you can always stop looking at cartoon animals on the internet, can’t really stop being gay or trans.

This reads to me a lot like “I don’t care what they do in their bedroom, but why do they have to be that way in public?”
I bet you have blue hair and pronouns
And now the pivot from furries to trans people. I am utterly shocked that this would be the case.
Chaonaut understand an obvious joke challenge
Oh, indeed. I’m sure you have a tight five about identifying as a helicopter you’re just dying to share with us.
From the context in this thread you could have clearly found out I’m not transphobic, especially since you seem to be stalking my replies.
Or maybe transphobes are now into pointing out that there’s a trans genocide going on.

Being queer is when you’re really into college sports mascots
Are we gatekeeping being rejected now?
