Health: 67% [Torpor]

This just in:
I'm just going to say it straight. I don't think I'm welcome here.
I don't know if I ever belonged on this site to begin with. I initially wanted a platform to share my music/writing on. I've watched the systematic breakdown of what I once called a "community" and I think it's finally time for me to tap out; after just over 14 long years.
First it was the overwhelming presence of "adult" art (I've never been into the "yiff" thing, let alone fursuits)
Then it was the diaper furs.
Then it was the bronies (hard cringe)
Now it's the commies using my own demons to do me in once and for all.
Long time followers will know that I used to be a pretty "far left" thinker. However as time went on, I... Changed.
I don't know if it's "maturity" or if I'm getting jaded with the "left", but either way, my thoughts reside "left of center" these days. That is to say; I've become a little more conservative. Part of me thinks that it's always really been that way (i,e, Pro-Gun) but part of me thinks that I'm not just imagining it when I see radical and ironically racist, prejudice, fascist, and segregationist behavior from the political school of thinking which I once thought held most of my beliefs.
As stated earlier, I still identify as "left of center" My core tenant of my social policies is environmentalism, and I've always believed that education and heathcare should be a basic human right, not a commodity.
So what does this have to do with my FA account?
The long and short of it is; I'm not interested in this community anymore. Not just due to the present tenuous situation in both the world and my own country, but in the "community" or "fandom" in general. If I post, then I will post sparsely as always. If I comment, then my comments will be scarce at best. I'm not jiving with this community anymore, so I think I'll just do what I can which is damn little...
Apologies to my long term followers, to my former cohorts, and to a certain someone... You may take solace in knowing that even though FA decided to let me live, they've placed me on a very, very short leash
