In 2008, most of these people had Mad Men gangtags, were libertarian, and wanted to be Don Draper. Through the natural dwindling userbase, subsequent reclusion of these forums, and the changing tide of social norms, the fetitization of 1960s capitalism evolved into what we see here today.

Instead of badass Don Draper laughing at his stupid secretary because she wants to suck his dick, we have purple webcomic people trading questionable fanart in various discords between correcting each others microaggressions. Instead of Ron Paul we have wet diaper furs spreading the good word of communist dictators and how much it actually kicks rear end to starve to death.

This is all an act and they don't seem to realize it yet. It's extremely weird. But I do look forward to their next act in 5-10 years. I hope goons go all-in with Alex Jones style psychosis. If you don't think there's a pyramid in Antarctica you're a chud, etc. lol, it's gonna kick rear end.


This synthy post still cracks me up every time I'm reminded of it.

Lol.

Also, I think the furries are a combo of two different types:

A slightly different version of those sad, mostly middle aged people who think "being into BDSM" is a replacement for "having an interesting personality". And,

People desperately looking for a way to have a unique social niche in an online environment so heavily populated that being unique is impossible. Like, among my IRL friends, I'm the chubby, self-deprecating, (debatably) funny guy with an encyclopedic knowledge of the first ten years of The Simpsons.

Thats a unique identity in real life, but theres probably 5 of me reading this thread, and definitely 50,000 of me on twitter.

Hedrigal needs to never post about loving again. If someone tries to bait him into talking about who he wants to gently caress, he needs to not take the bait.

He's reached the point of being "infamously horny" and he looks for any opportunity to shoehorn in that he wants to gently caress something or someone and it makes people uncomfortable and it needs to stop.

Furries overall get poo poo on really bad but that's mostly because the only people who Talk About Being Furries Online are the people who are real weird about it. I don't give a poo poo what you're into, sexual or not, just don't be weird in public

Like, dude who is really into motorcycles: fine
Due who only talks about being really into motorcycles: exhausting

It's not even that it's gross or weird or whatever just like we're trying to have a conversation here

Furries have the same problem as other kink spaces. The most visible ones are always the ones talking in the most obnoxious level of detail because they have no sense of boundaries or propriety around people who are not involved in the scene.

People screaming furry hate are just following his conclusions.

Given the drat "we think its funny to give all the furries a star of david and lock them in the posting gas chamber" saga is part of our history

Hedrigal is a bad example, because his rep as horny means everyone runs it through a horny filter, but when people start screaming about furries it gets gross *fast* around here
