You can attribute to yourself 100% of the responsibility of me checking out the furry groups you frequently talk against. Your website reads like a political pamphlet version of The Sun. Hadn't it been for your repeated bashing of furries you dislike, I wouldn't have known anything about them.
I like to quote APA Vootie's (1976-1983) mission statement (the precursor to Fred's Rowrbrazzle & the Furry Fandom):
"You see, the whole point of Funny Animals Fandom (incorporating Funny Vegetables, Funny Minerals, and Funny Machines Fandoms) is that humans in general are too serious. They get puffed up and self-important, and full of this insatiable desire for Impact and Significance."
"Human characters are self-righteous, know all the answers, and are ready to enforce them on everyone else. We don't want all that seriousness here. There's already enough everywhere else."
Your activism is making furry fandom turn into a farce of itself, if farces were the opposite of funny.
Since you favor left-wing ideology (I'm a centrist myself), I would like to quote Stephen Fry too. He believes, like I do, that in this current climate, the worst enemy of the left, is the left itself. The brilliant left-leaning homosexual comedian I suppose is not left-leaning anymore now that he's against this type of 'us vs. them' propaganda:
"I'm standing next to someone with whom I have differences in terms of politics and all kinds of things precisely because I think all this has got to stop. This rage, resentment, hostility, intolerance. This 'with us or against us' certainty. [...] Neither on each side can hear a word that the other shrieks, and nor do they want to. While these armies and propagandists in the culture wars clash, down below in the enormous space between the two sides, the people of the world try to get on with their lives, alternately baffled, bored, and betrayed by the horrible noises and explosions that occur all around. I think it's time for this toxic, binary, zero-sum madness to stop, before we destroy ourselves."
I do not condone a felon being in charge of a convention. I do not condone Foxler's disrespect towards convention rules. I'm very much against cronyism too, that is something that has negatively affected the local furry convention as well.
In any case, your practices are first and foremost those of a political pundit, and much lower down the line those of a useful member of the fandom, as it stands right now. I have to balance out all your hatred for specific demographic groups somehow. You don't get to choose who is or isn't furry, if you read Nuka's extensive research you'll be reminded that a furry is anyone who enjoys animal anthropomorphics and identifies as such. I continue to read dogpatch.press because of Fred's regular contributions to furry culture.
