The single most infuriating part about furry fandom?
6 years ago
People rushing to defend, comfort and excuse pedophiles in our midst, even when clear and proven. To this day those convicted of child crimes still get warm wishes posted on their FA shouts and twitters long dormant from their imprisonment.
Worst still are the masses neutral to furry being made inclusive to these dangerous people as though it's a matter of course. "But furry is inclusive and HAS to be inclusive!" Fuck. That.
I've seen the fringes of the fandom's social sphere, and on that edge live people 17-20 or so who make rp accounts on f-list, twitter, telegram, discord. They commit the most heinous crime of reutilization of furry art to typefuck. They dare to besmerch the brand of big titty vixen by renaming her and making her an anal fiend.
You lot declare these young people, many testing your waters, needibg guidance, as "art thieves"*, you form little 'net posses to hunt down and report these most vile personas non grata... You socially exclude them likeva motherfucker.
And I can't help but wonder how much healthier and safer furry would be if you applied half that vitriol, exclusion and righteous effort into weeding out child abusers.
Angry screaming can be directed to the comments \/
*Yes I've had my art actually stolen. This ain't that.

I'm sure a lot of furries feel like you do but they keep it to themselves out of concern of fear of being accused of throwing rocks in a glass house scenario. There's definitely no shortage of folks who've left the community (and this site) out of anger at the seeming callousness and double-standards when in reality it's fear of having what they feel to be the only community where they feel *normal* and accepted in turn against them.
But pedos should totally be banned :)
And I certainly know that feeling, and that frustration over what a stumbling block it seems like for some people. After telling one fur off for being a pedo (a "contact advocate" for lack of a better term) he retorted with 'but don't you like macro, hypocrite' routine. Like somehow having Cougr art on my PC would get me thrown in a cell next to me, or that outting me for a known fetish of mine to furry would ruin me too... Like no, you're an idiot, a highly dangerous idiot. Stay away from kids, sick fuck.
Ugh...
Thanks for understanding though. We're not few in number, just lacking in courage I think.
