I think furries are cringe and fail, but it's equally stupid to obsess in your hatred of them, or actually to obsess about anything you hate

Basically, like any other phobia.

I still think they're fuckin weird, but who cares. We all do and enjoy weird poo poo, theirs is just super public.

Yeah, we (myself included) were pretty gross to them

The response to the PHIZ KHALIFA article made me think that it's more "we've agreed not to directly talk about our hate" type situation for a lot of posters

At the end of the day, furrydom is a fetish and should be treated as such. I don’t think it’s hatred so much as annoyance (again, a la Bust Rodd). I could be wrong though.

also furries arent just a sex thing right? my vague understanding is that for a lot (some? many? most?) of them its just like they enjoy drawing and/or dressing up as anthropomorphic animals but no more sexually than, like, someone doing fanart of and cosplaying as captain america or whatever.

From what I've been told after working in jobs with outspoken furries (which honestly shocked me at first that they could just be out about a fetish like that), it's a little closer to being a juggalo than directly fetish stuff -- though there is certainly a fetishistic contingent that is incredibly vocal, not all are that way. The same way that there is, and I'm loathe to tell you about this, juggalo porn.

No one really bats an eye if someone on twitter or w/e has their fursona as their av so I don't really think furries are a persecuted class in the modern internet landscape tbh.

One of the ICP guys has a furry daughter and is extremely outspoken about having good vibes towards any and all well-meaning subcultures; IIRC he got a juggalo fursuit for himself, there's definitely one involved in the story somewhere.

That is such a good story, cause the first fursuit he bought her was poo poo so he made a video calling them out.

I went back and looked at the threads about the furry article and while there was absolutely some GBS rear end posts there primarily it seemed to be criticism from LGBT and even some self admitted furry posters that found it uncomfortable for 'furry' as an identifier to be treated as a protected class. Or some eyerolling posts about how being a furry inherently means you're woke and anti fascist which is just goofy. You can be woke and a furry but being furry does not mean you are woke lol.

The funniest part about the furry article was I looked at PHIZ's twitter during it all going down and they really managed to not make ANYONE happy. They were being attacked on site for the article being hella cringe and then on twitter there were furries yelling at him that he didn't apologize ENOUGH.

a ton of this crew were like, under the impression that SA was a nazi website on the level of like the 4chan political board or something. this attitude really seemed to pop up around 2020 for "some reason". i forgot if there was some sort of publicity around the forums at that time

Being a furry may not itself be a fetish, but it seems to be comorbid with having an array of very specific sex weirdnesses, it may even rival Being British in terms of determining if you're a pervert

Obviously I would argue most furries would look at poo poo like this and call it extremely cringe and fail. I do not think this crap represents the majority of how furries view themselves or w/e. It's just funny lol.
