Furry Fandom and Drama General

[koko999]

to be fair, how actually powerful are these twitter furries? outside of their tightly knit circle, no one cares, and if anyone actually did, they'd probably immediately retreat into a privated followers only circle jerk when people discovered how shit and unreasonable most of them are.

Klace as well isn't thrilled at the situation.

A troon then responds to prove the point of everybody:

I was able to find out they were in fact a troon.

Furries destroy everything. Its getting every time harder for them to get accepted from outsiders and other fandoms around. When some "popufur" is ready to settle contacts for public disscussions with someone very well known by "normies", they go out of their way and think it must be an attack against the good will of the fandom or bringing things to mainstream. And now poor guy Ethan gets pulled into the being a "outrightous alt-right"/gender policy shitstorm. The dumbest type of furry drama is always on fucking Twitter.

Furries tend to be weird around the media and they have for a long time. People like Uncle Kage decided the best response to the problem of the media going to furry cons and laughing at them (or well not presenting 100% pro-furry coverage) was to implement overly strict media policies which would only allow media coverage it if it was their brand of surgarcoating and the right to eject anyone who didn't comply from the con. Some other cons such as FWA also decided to implement "all footage filmed here belongs to us" policies and include overly strict policies for filming as well, yet none of this actually is enough to stop incidents at cons from spreading (more on this later). To make matters worse the fandom had their own punishment for daring to go on TV shows: bans from cons and sometimes even FurAffinity. Chew Fox (who appeared in the Fursonas documentary) is a classic example, after appearing on Tyra Banks he was banned from Anthrocon and banned from FurAffinity twice, once for the show appearance and the second time for wearing a shirt mocking Dragoneer.

Uncle Kage's media policies made him the target of the crew producing the fursonas documentary, who were talked about in this Daily Beast article comparing him to Scientology's infamous leader David Miscavige.

Rodriguez invited Uncle Kage to take part in his documentary, but in the film says that fizzled out when the furry celeb insisted on having an editorial say on the final cut. Instead, Rodriguez weaves in controversial footage of Uncle Kage’s public appearances at furry events, and chances upon a golden opportunity when Kage takes to the Internet to answer Web questions during one of his famous booze-fueled “wine streams.”

More shocking, however, is footage of Kage teaching furries at convention panels not to trust the media, giving lessons on how to deflect and even “play dumb” if queried about just about anything by journalists. With a relentlessly menacing magnetism, he comes off as both father figure and punisher to his congregation: the David Miscavige of the furry fandom.

In another scene culled from publicly available footage, Kage openly ridicules a well-known furry named Boomer the Dog, a gentle-voiced free spirit who made headlines for his attempts to legally change his name to match his fursona. Kage’s message is clear: If you embarrass the furry community, you’ll pay.

“We’ll take you out back and skull-fuck you,” he half-jokingly declares in one shot. In another video, he refers to another well-known furry figure, a woman named Chew Fox who found herself ostracized by the community after playing up an extreme furry caricature on Tyra Banks’ show, as “that fucking bitch.”

These are intimidating expressions to hear from a vaunted leader of a community built on self-expression and acceptance—even moreso, Rodriguez found, when he brought Uncle Kage’s more hostile protectionist tactics up to his subjects.

“I knew even when I started it that furries were pretty protective of their image, and kind of defensive—I guess why wouldn’t they be?” admitted Rodriguez. Perhaps unsurprisingly he and his colleagues were kicked out of Anthrocon, which imposes extremely limiting rules for attending media, just for having a camera rolling, he says.

The problem is that the aftermath of that (sugarcoating the fandom to outsiders) led to an even worse version of the infamous missing stair situation in the furry fandom. There are plenty of predators, scammers, and animal abusers that a good portion of the people inside the fandom know are that way, but whom outsiders or newfags know nothing about or assume "yeah it's just slander from trolls". It's even worse when you factor behavior from furries into the mix because they will screech as if you were not supposed to see that like a North Korean tour minder catching a tourist taking pictures of the starving citizens. When outsiders are watching they will either deny those people exist or play them down as if they're some super tiny fraction of the fandom.

Case in point, FWA 2018. Two furries in pup gear were caught moshing in pup gear in a sexual manner in the lobby, leading bystanders to record it. The initial reaction was quite negative as this page of the thread showed, but once the media picked up on it the reaction of furry Twitter quickly changed to YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO SEE THAT REEEEE!

They are that worried about their fandom looking bad that they don't even care if their problem people are called out because if it makes their fandom look bad it's not worth it. At the same time as the media coverage has changed from neutral/mocking coverage to fluffing up the fandom furries are mad that they're not depicting the wokest, most diverse furries on TV. Instead of being happy that they're getting fluffed up by TV shows, they're angry and being choosy. They screeched at CNN because there weren't enough trans POC furries in their documentary and they were mad at H3H3 because he had guests they hated in the past and he had a reputation of mocking crazy because of his reaction/commentary video career.

Now that they've gotten what they wanted, furries seem pissed off at the whole situation and the borderline harassing tweets Majira was receiving while troons are still going on and on about H3H3 literally killing trannies.

to be fair, how actually powerful are these twitter furries? outside of their tightly knit circle, no one cares, and if anyone actually did, they'd probably immediately retreat into a privated followers only circle jerk when people discovered how shit and unreasonable most of them are.

Xydexx is the only one out of them who has legacy power in the fandom being a member of the Anthrocon board and he could have possibly gotten Majira banned from Anthrocon. Chipfox was the founder of the altfurry blocklist before passing it off to someone else (or hiding behind an alias most likely, or both) and also happens to be on con staff at denfur. That Pandoras Foxo troon mentioned above who went in lockdown mode is another SRE at Google and we all know how loony those people can be. The rest from a surface glance just have classic social media "clout" which is lots of followers and connections but if the interview went well chances are any impact would be minimal so if anything this drama was more bark than bite.

a lot of furry stuff seems more bark than bite to be honest. when's the last time furries have ever done something impactful?

Troons are such absolute pricks.

And furry troons are the worst of them, to where every little thing begins to look transphobic to them. "DON'T YOU DARE SAY ANYTHING OFFENSIVE ABOUT MY CHOSEN LIFESTYLE OR I'LL KICK YOUR ASS!" seems to the unofficial rule.

To be honest the drama in the Furry Fandom is what made me interested in it in the first place.

Furry drama used to be fun to watch. It still is, but it used to not have the levels of salt that could rival the Dead Sea. Look at how they used to get called 'fur fags' and at least roll with it enough to not screech homophobia because they don't like being called out for drama right now.

To be honest I think Kiwi Farms is better then the furry fandom, I mean look at us we are strong, United, and share a common goal. The furry fandom is divided, full of drama (which is great for this thread), and has an unknown future.

One would think furries would wise up and not eat each other with in-fighting, but one would be wrong.

Remember the first Austin Powers where he incorrectly assumed his boss's mother was a man? Well...'you have to admit she does look rather manish' and 'that's a man, baby' come to mind. Because of course.

Thing is that apprently she was a man to woman trans and she only tranisinited when she was in her 30's and she is currently 35.

I'm going to guess that "maybe" is going to be a clever way to weasel out of giving a prize once he monetizes the videos and people expect a prize

Everything about this channel like other Youtubers feels staged and planned ten steps ahead. The allegation video recordings, suddenly releasing crossdressing videos when called out for transphobia, etc

How long before they make the "We aren't white girls so we don't fuck dogs" video?

I've noticed quite a bit of trans people who've transitioned (MTF more often than FTM) look weird.

It was probably the only funny part of his interactions with others where he spewed SJW bullshit. Those goddamn Harvest Snaps, man! They're the all-vegetable healthy alternative to chips/crisps made exclusively for the Alt-Right and TERFs!

when they commit murder or rape, usually

Thanks to the H3H3 saga furries are in "REEE NORMIES" mode again. Case in point: A furry best known for throwing con parties is mad at "normie colonizers" in the fandom.

I don't know if these people have thought out the very obvious ramifications of the fandom becoming more insular.

If furries won't provide context for what it is they are, or like to do, it will revert to the fandom's most notorious examples. For example, Kero The Wolf and Jafex, or outside actors like Jim who (deservedly) won't be anywhere near as nice or sympathetic than someone like in the fandom will be. Basically, it's a bad PR self fulfilling prophecy. Might be hard to book con venues and such if everyone thinks you rape dogs.

Or look at Rainfurrest which got blacklisted from every venue in the area. Rainfurrest 2015 was seen as a dumpster fire all across the internet, ranking up there with Dashcon in con disasters. It was a con where furries openly wore fetish gear and trashed up the hotel like a bunch of drunk fratboys.

Speaking of that...him and his group were at RF2015.

Oh yeah. RF 2015 is a notorious shitshow, I know people who went and i've heard tons of stories. Many of them involve fucktons of soiled diapers laying about. It's a very basic PR Tenet. If you don't define yourself as a person or group, other people will do it for you, and it's likely they'll do it in ways which probably won't be beneficial for you and yours.

It looks like PartyPrat isn't fit to judge who should or shouldn't be allowed to be in fandom. I'm personally praying for Gen Z Autists who don't give two damns about sexual shit to come along.

Normies are curious about the furry fandom in the same way people find it entertaining to watch "My 600 pound life". They don't want to join it, they want to laugh and be fascinated about why someone would willingly do this to themselves.

Having actually witnessed the event, I feel like his video doesn't really do it the full justice.
It was... an experience.
A freakish nightmare one.
One that cannot even be quantified into words.
