To be fair, there was at least one section that did cover furry fandom and censorship directly, and a second section about public versus private sphere does indicate that private and public is becoming a bit muddied as private organizations fight over public spaces of engagement on the internet: particularly true in the furry fandom.
Now is it fair to expect furry communities to somehow 'exercise' the demons out of people instead of simply not dealing with them or just removing them from the space? Probably not. We are not experts on extremists and how to defuse them. Our government is supposed to be helping us with these things, but unfortunately recently in the US our leaders are inflaming them more than helping to defuse them. So it forces the feeling of needing vigilantism, even if the Nazis aren't as much of a threat in a republic of 50 governments after a recession than in a war torn country that is half the size of Texas after a depression.
The fact that the two parties are equal in scope and both seem to be ready to enact their second amendment rights should the other go to far shows that while Nazism may not take over, they may instead just try and push the US into a second civil war, because that's the most damage they can hope to cause. And it is possible that Russia (and their Manchurian Candidate) has that goal in mind as well. Or us fighting North Korea. They just want us fighting for some reason. Probably so they can start doing whatever military acts they have in mind with smoke screened impunity.
These things don't have to do much with the fandom for sure. Unfortunately if they do get bad enough, they certainly would distract from hobbies and enjoyment one once had in life.
