Hey CNN are you okay??

What’s happening now??

They’re not wrong you guys are just mean/the loudest minority of Furry culture is the worst and is not representative of furries as a whole

I’m adding, yall remember when people tried to GAS a hotel of furries.

Yall remember how most of them are harmless doofs that just wanna have fun and raise money for charity.

Yall remember how at Genericon IN MY STATE a bunch of furries at the rave stopped COLLEGE STUDENTS FROM THE CAMPUS FROM KIDNAPPING MINORS FROM SAID CONVENTION

Look there’s a lot of bad parts, that’s unavoidable with a Fandom that massive, but there’s a lot of good too and we need to stop judging fandoms by their worst.

Preach

They also pay fairly for commission work, support art and artists, and have taken concrete measures, far more than many other subcultures, to aggressively eject neo-nazis from their community.

I mean, I don’t have to like or understand the sexual component, but it’s also none of my business.  So I’m cool with them on the basis of that other stuff.

Dude, my experiences with the furry community have been pretty awesome. I had no idea what a furry was until I launched a comic (Blue Crash Kit) about a trio of polyfidelitous talking animal superheroes, but furries became our core fan base, and although of course there was the odd fash or pervert, most of them were incredibly nice, welcoming, and supportive people. I may not be a furry myself, but I felt very welcomed by the community.

(I am preparing to RE-launch the comic, in fact, because I still get the occasional email asking me to, and I feel I owe it to the fans. )

@jitterbugjive @jestre werent yall at the con that people tried to gas?

Yes, we were. Midwest FurFest, but now we can call it Chlorine Con endearingly because we stick together and keep moving forward.

The event was scary, but we held together while sitting in the con center nearby hosting a dog show coincidentally.

I survived Chlorine Con™️.
