Well, for a start, there's nothing normal about furries. ;-)
I think there was insufficient delineation of opinion and accepted fact. Maybe few disagree that furry art usually involves drawings of anthropomorphic animals; but saying that "being furry" is a trait that you're born with, and that it's not something you can "recruit" people to – these are opinions that were presented as fact.
Perhaps the caller felt they were speaking just for themselves, or for those who are therians; though they came on with the stated intent of describing "furries." More likely, they simply believe their views to be accepted facts.
Overall, you're right; they said nothing untrue, at least as far as their own definition of furry goes. Those facepalming might want to look in the mirror and ask themselves exactly how far they are from that definition.
