I am a furry

User blog

Before you all yell "AAH FEK HES A FURRY" and start making lame and disgraceful holocaust jokes about it, i just want to clear things up. I am a furry, but I am NOT a fursuiter, and most definately not those drunken idiots camping around walmart. I should make this easier to understand. Imagine furries as Germanic people, fursuiters as Germans themselves, and those people in fursuits doing dumb things as...Hmmm...Nazis. Just like how many people hated all germans because of Nazis, a small minority (Although reperations and being a reliable ally did help germans regain the world's trust), It's only a small minority thats doing...stuff. 

I am posting this here because later on, I'm expecting plenty of hate from here. PB is a very large community, so its probably inevitable (lolz it already happened). I am proud being a furry, and I don't give a shit about what people thought about it, and because of that I already recieved some hate. While this may not prevent all hate aimed towards me, I do hope it will minimize it.

Another thing is terrorism.

When you think of terrorists, you generally think of 9/11, the War on Terror, ISIS and Al-qaeda etc., not about someone releasing a canister of chlorine gas in a furry convention. While, luckily, most hate doesn't spread beyond pixels on the screen, sometimes people take things too seriously. People can be total arseholes, and just because furry fandom is generally a western thing protected by human rights, we aren't invincable. In fact, although very rarely, some people have been murdered over this, which is not only extremely cruel but also... stupid. I can see why someone would kill another person over topics like immigration or racism, but over being a furry? And another disturbing thing is that after the MFF chlorine gas attack, which sent 19 people to the hospital, rather than sympathising with the victims, some people instead made Holocaust jokes over it. The Holocaust, in which up to 15 million people were killed by Hitler's regime, is something you should ever use as a joke.

I do hope this gives you some awareness into what furries actually are, and how fucked up some people can be.

Also, I do apologize if the analogy offended you.
