I was in a Rec Center hanging out and some people were arguing about if LGBTQ and Furrys are good or bad and these people starting saying that all of these normal people should start hurting themselves and committing die even though when I asked them what they have done to them and they said that they were weird but that’s all they have done nothing but get so much hate I had to report all of them for Threats and Encouraging Suicide. What do y’all think please do come up with bull crap reasons and be honest do you hate these people and if you do thy

People just find problems with anything tbh even things that aren't a problem unfortunately.

Cause we live in a world where people have to hate someone. If they can't hate based on skin color, religion or gender without getting some sort of ban, then they can hate on something else they don't understand. Some groups of people get a bad rep due to stereotypes that are propagated throughout the world based off a few incidents. This can be seen in the news and social media alike. A rare case of something that is bad can happen to 0.001% of the population and the news will make it look like 70% of all people face this situation. I don't want to bring specific subjects into the conversation, but you can see it everywhere, and I mean literally everywhere. You read something that X is doing ABC in one place, they are doing BCA in another and all along, when you look into it, they were actually doing DEF and everyone made their own story out of it. There is always going to be issues when it comes to small groups not conforming to the social norms. The best you can do is ignore it, report the situation when you have removed yourself from the situation and live your life the way you want to live it. Just don't expect everyone else to conform to your lifestyles and just control what you can control, yourself.

Omg I finally found a place to vent a bit so I like rr militaries (Cringe I know) but I am terrified to join any military events because its either I get banned when I join or there's atleast one person absolutely destroying the CoC just because I like Cute Animal guys. Sorry i just had to get it out

#

I mean the whole point of a military is to hate others

#

Like the US and the middle east but it's all 6 year olds

#

Well here in ireland our military isn't even called the military there called the Óglaigh na hÉireann or peace keepers of Ireland. Just what I'm trying to say it makes me feel wrong for just being a furry but I know it's not wrong

#

Like I had a anti furry friend me just it say that he was good a kill furrys I just responded with sure bud and then blocked him

paper wasp
#

Furries will always be hated

#

However there are a ton of furry communities in recroom

#

And there are some basic military games that don't look at furries and perm ban them straight away

#

However of course most of them perm ban

torn heron
#

Yeah furries were completely villianised and the people usually only look at the bad stuff and the when the furries do something good nobody looks. as a furry from what I've see is yes the Community is definitely over ||Sexualised|| and it is a problem but every Community has that problem but nobody cares or listen, its just furry bad and that's it. As the quote in my RR bio says I try and show that not all furrys are bad just nobody listens

The only problem I have with furries is that they shove it in your face same with the lgbtq community I don't hate them I just don't like it when its the only thing they talk about like I be having A normal conversation and then "Yea because I'm gay" like I did not ask nor do I care. I would say I'm about 11% furry and no more no less. Its just everywhere and I would like to go one day without hearing the word gay or furry because no just do not care. Be what you want and do what you want with your life but all I ask of you is that I do not know about it.

How are you 11% furry

Ok, but dont act like them hettys dont go "Well but im straight" when someone says anything remotely gay

# outer spade How is it not normal though, Its.. cosplayers

Because it is a new-er thing. Its like the LGBTQ+ community. We have all been following “rules” for years, and now that people want to be different and love who they want to love, people like to be stubborn and argue and make fun of what they think is “wrong”

outer spade
#

True

#

Furries aren't bad people. Nor do they present themselves that way.

It is society that has printed them a bad image

Everyone has a good person inside of their soul even death row criminals most of those people have been corrupted by society

and pressured to do this kinda stuff

to hate others

its a phenomenon I like to call Child Scars

Its just a bunch of wounds and negative emotions from their parents being abusive maybe even nosy and yell alot. Their inner child is scarred leaving a wounded child for the rest of their life

The main problem here is alot of the people who "despise" furries have never actually seen, met or interacted with one. They mostly just see all the posts on Reddit or whatever saying that they are bad and follow along to be "based"

I myself am not a furry but I don't see why people act like they are the bane of existence

If it’s a furry who barks or crawls on the ground or if they actually think they are an animal then they are stupid but if they just want do dress up as an animal it’s fine

And I respect lgbtq

But I don’t really support it

Good, not good. Either way, they're still human. Only thing is, they pretend to be something they're not for God-knows-what reasons. Furries have existed for decades due to anthropomorphic animals on media (from Winnie the Pooh to Lola Bunny), and within that time span, about 70% of the LGBTQ+ became furries, and about 30% remained straight so we associate the gays to be furries more. It's not about who a person is, it's about what they do that defines them. Their morals, motives, etc. Specifically, their willpower to go on a level of extremism that no human should ever go is what makes society hate them so much. There are some members out there that are a part of one or both communities that also wish they, them included, didn't exist because they make their communities look like mentally-ill scum from their "personas" alone. It's an identity crisis of both worlds, and not even their supporters can escape the madness, so they just get used to that, AND the hate they don't deserve. If I'm gonna be real here, those people are probably more homophobic and anthropophobic than the straights are because of that cursed equality they have towards them. That's my answer to your question, take it as you will. I'm going to bed.

basically it's just other case of people being upset at others for who they are and what they enjoy.

I couldn't agree more, that could be for any honestly from race, genders, gangs, and even religious cults, speaking on the bigger societal groups, even in Rec Room. It always depends on the individuals, and not the communities as a whole. I choose to love people individually because they are not like the stereotypical person they are assumed to be in the community itself. In other words, I may not like the community, but I may like you. I could dislike all my family members, and love one or two people because they're real ones. Just depends.

vital quest
#

this is a problem with pretty much anything: race, genders, communities, and even hobbies but unfortunately that's just people for you. They hate on things even if they don't understand it.

I didn’t start having problems with the furry community until I got to see them up close and learn about them

#

or literally ANY fandom

#

forget fandoms tho there's just so many bad people in general

#

i dealt with many people and many fandoms so I've seen a lot. But bullying someone over what they enjoy is just petty and does nothing

#

if they're a bad person hate them for that. It makes less sense to hate them if they're one of the chill ones too

drawing isn't necessarily a problem but yet there's SO many people that's toxic even in the art community, same for anime and music too. pretty much anything

stable moat
vital quest
#

so people thing every single one in the fandom is bad when it isn't the case

#

you can find people that are chill in pretty much any fandom but the louder side which is usually the toxic ones makes people think they're all like that and even afraid to interact

#

i can't fully blame them half the time but i do if they decide to harass someone that they don't know that did nothing

stable moat

#

I only have a problem with people posting nsfw if kids can easily get to it

if they can/are involved then that's disgusting.

same thing for wearing henta anyone can see it including children that's disgusting asf.

it's obviously a problem if kids can see it and are involved

Some people want to wear big fancy fur suits, or look at antro pictures, but it should be kept to themselves, enjoyed in the privacy of there own home, instead of openly displayed and used to define themselves online

if they wanna draw animals with humanoid features that's definitely not an issue hell i and many others do the same thing and it's common in pop culture too. But if it's inappropriate then it should be more hidden, as it kids shouldn't be able to see it.

or be involved.

stable moat

#

i myself is a furry at least by definition, hell people assume things because im an anime fan as well. I don't associate with those people or even interact much in the fandom sometimes and there's plenty of others like that too. Not every member is necessarily bad but there's plenty that are and they're usually the loudest too

stable moat

that's usually a reason why people say what interests them in the first place to find others with common interests too

It's a simple answer and that being "yeah, this is fine to me some bits of it may be weird to me but it won't bother my day to day life".
Arguing about LGBT and furries nowadays to me is like arguing with a wall (kinda like the guy speaking to the wall meme), it's been argued about so many times to point where no one wants to hear it and you're just talking to a brick wall.
Now ofc there's many flaws to fandoms like anime fandoms and furry fandoms but who actually cares?
It can be bothering that these fandoms can be brainwashing to the next generation but what's it gonna do to YOU?

#

All and all I really don't care what others do

vital quest
#

i mean true. many fandoms try to brainwash others obviously not for the greater good usually but that's honestly job how people are. Just try to be as decent a person as you can

#

and protect the ones from getting especially the kids from getting caught up into that 😭

stable moat
#

“It can be brainwashing to the next generation but what’s it gonna do to YOU?” Like just because something doesn’t negatively effect me personally we shouldn’t care?

vital quest
#

me personally don't want my kid to grow up to be a toxic kpop/anime stan, or a toxic person in general

#

so if they got it somewhere along the way that being a "bad person" is ok from anyone, including fandoms, friends etc, I'd do whatever I can to teach them pretty much the opposite

you dont change someones opinion by insulting them for their opinion

you cant make a person change from a furry hater to a furry non-hater by saying they hate themselves

#

thats not how persuading people works

#

and the logic itself is kind of strange

you cant say someone wants to kill themselves just because they want someone dead

tbh we can also take the same logic and say you hate furry haters to overcome the hate of yourself

it doesnt make any sense

# cosmic hill "One bad apple can ruin a bunch"

Yes, and the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. Look at it this way tho: when you have over millions and millions of apples to spare that are immediately picked before they go bad, it just goes back to what I mean about the individual, and not the community as a whole. There are actually some individual, ripe apples here, picked or fallen off the tree, who cares how? Then, there are the spoiled ones that stay in the tree and are disdained. Hated, and never wanted to be tasted or under the influence. It just depends on the person, not the community.

Because people like that are out of touch with reality and most of the time highly obnoxious. I would never tell someone to end there life for something so stupid as being a furry nor should anybody for any reason. Thing is you’re asking why people dislike human beings that wear tails, animal ears, and promote using bathrooms in litter boxes. Of course encouraging self harm is never the answer to anything but let’s be real here.

thin fable
#

The reason exactly why people hate furries, I will never understand. It's the most stupidest thing to hate someone for, and I think it's absurd. Furries are nothing but humen in a outfit, it's just a small dressup "game" i guess you can say. I know MANY furries who are genuinely the coolest people ever. I think one of the reason why people hate furries is because they confuse them with therians and people who blieve they ARE the animal, not just acting out for fun or for their own harmed mental life.
Therians are people who use bathrooms in a litter box or stuff, crawl around, and do things a animal would do.
Furries are people who simply dress up as an animal in a humanoid shape. Yes, they bark and growl or whatever, but not always. Those are known as "Hard-Core Furries".
It genuinely makes me mad to watch people hate on furries for no genuine reason at all. They don't even hate or bully or harrass them for their personality or something. It's just because of people stereotyping them, and making them look like awful people. It's an awful reason.
Yes, I understand that some of the people in the community have made and done sexual or just awful things, but it's only- not even a quarter of the community. Again, I've met hundreds of furries and all of them are amazing people. So, it's just that some people follow stereotypes and try to fit into a society that "cancels" or "flames" people for the smallest reason. We came into a society that has lost their minds, and think that everything they do is right and never wrong, no matter who it is. We have this image in our heads of how things should be and what is "correct" or "proper" or "normal" which is completely insanity. Sending death threats to a furry is a whole other level of mental insanity. People dont even flame furries because of something they did, simply because they are.. "Different". And those same people say things like "Being different is being unique, not everyone is the same."

The shortened reason: People do not understand the difference between therians and furries, so they flame furries for thinking they're therians. Plus, this society has just lost their minds..

No it wasn’t the English. That was fine. It was just saying that society has lost there minds. While defending a community that barks like animals and has been known to be sexually innapropriate. You seem like a very nice person, I just don’t think I could get behind the whole defending furries thing.

Not to mention the entire websites dedicated to hosting nsfw for furries

#

And while this might be anecdotal evidence, but every furry discord server I’ve been on always has 2 things in common: nsfw channels, and underaged children

thin fable
#

Okay, so let's agree that yes, there are many people in the furry communities who are sexual and do NSFW stuff. But if you really think, aren't we non-furry people also people who do almost the same? There are also most definitely websites for NSFW and servers for NSFW that isn't furry related. There's a non-furry NSFW magazine aswell. Furries are genuinely not much different when it comes to sexual things. You can name so many things about furries that dont include appearance, and genuinely, it could be almost exactly like us non-furries.

(Please tell me this makes sense what I trying to say.
