Hatred in a community that was meant for love
5 years ago
IF all of you are going to do for the next couple of years is hate people for anything and everything. Even political Differences. How can you call yourselves an accepting community? Have to be better. Block me if you disagree. Because I will block you if you're going to go around and continue to spread hate... I don't give a damn who you voted for. I want to see people get along but how can we? When all we do is hate, how can we learn to love or spread the love? I have watched many people I've looked up to, many people I've respected, many friends fall to hatred and discrimination. I've seen people continue to divide us. Ironically it's not who you think it is. The Furry Fandom, I came here because I wanted to be accepted, I wanted to be loved, to know that being me would be ok... I am not going to leave the fandom, I'm just going to find people who still hold these principles. I am distancing myself not from people who voted for this person or that person, I am however going to distance myself from those who continue to divide and shame us for who we are. It sucks having to type out several posts trying to get my point across.. It sucks having to explain yourself to people who refuse to listen... SO I'm done trying to explain, Discussion time is over. I will leave you to your demons, whatever it was that turned your life upside down, whatever it was that made you hate, whatever ails you, You're not my problem to solve. I have my own shit to deal with and I don't need your help or anyone's help. And If you should fix whatever it is in your life that is broken, if you should find that hole in your heart, if you should manage to rid yourself from that dark place you either put yourself in or you were put in there by peer pressure or outside forces, if you should climb out of that darkness, you will find me in the light.

Sorry to hear that you have been having these experiences. I swear it always does get so much worse during an election year doesn't it. I do hope that you will not lose hope and will find those friends and peers who will not shame or harm you, but raise you up and encourage and be kind, everything that friends should do. :) I certainly will offer myself as someone you can chat with in the community if you ever need it.
