Can we stop harassing educators with frivolous crap?

Furry Panic Is the Latest Dumb GOP Attack on Public Schools

Right-wing parents are attacking school boards over “furries” in the classroom—a proxy for the larger culture wars over race and gender.

www.thedailybeast.com

Trumpists once again proving they have no shame at all will attack public school officials with frivolous bullshit and not so subtle transphobia. Yeah the attack helicopter shit got old many years ago.

Lets clear this shit up. Stop using lies about furries to attack already stressed and underpaid educators. Ive been to many furry conventions and there has not been one litter box there and furries dont believe they are non human animals.

There have not been any requests for litter boxes to be placed in unisex bathrooms in any schools. Also stop lying about trans people.. enough.

Only if they stop harassing our children lunatic, LW nonsense.

Maybe what we need is more diversity in the types of freaks the kids are exposed to.

One week could be furries and the next week is diapered man-babies.

Trumpers voting for the literal embodiment of the 7 deadly sins but whining about the supposedly sexual immorality being taught in schools is absolutely hilarious to me.

"Hey child, we're gonna vote for the grab em by the ***** guy, but don't ever let those SJW teachers of your at school tell you what trans people and furries are about!!"

Whats all this then?

Your sexual deviancy should have no place around children.

Shouldn't it be easy to point out to the kids how stupid those adults are being?

Teachers have always been attacked, unjustly as a group. You will find the more enlightened a community is, the more it respects it's teachers. Small-minded people attack teachers.

Who are the "they" being referred to, Bullseye? Are furries (as in adult furries) harassing children? If so, they should be arrested and escorted from the school.

But as for kids who identify as furries wearing cat ears and foxtails? Unless it is against general school dress codes such as those against headwear and belt accessories, I could not care less. It is as offensive to me as some young gay middle or high schooler wearing a rainbow shirt, and it is totally harmless.

One of the stupidest posts I've seen. What's your point?
Sometimes it's wiser to remain silent, Leo.

 

[BirdinHand]

Wait…hold on.

Kids go to school dressed like animals?

Kids walk around in public dressed like animals in general? Not little kids, not Halloween…but older kids on a regular day?


Wow. I live under a much larger rock than I thought.

My point was asking who exactly are you claiming is "harassing children"?

Sometimes it's wiser to remain silent, Leo.

Oh, I agree.

I'm a furry. I'm not a "freak" and being a furry has nothing to do with anyone's sexual proclivities, not that it is any of your business anyway.

Based on the article, it sounds like it is the schoolchildren who are furries that are being harassed.

Do you want to call me a freak or sexual deviant again but to my "face"? Or is it not as fun when you're attacking a specific individual?

Nah, I'll just set out a saucer of milk for you.

From what I have seen, it is children going to school wearing hoodies with cat ears, or having tails clipped to their belts and the like. I used to think it was weird. But I have come to realize it is one of the most harmless forms of self-expression I have seen and accept it as being no different than being someone who is enthusiastically into, say, Japanese animated films.

Yep. I think it is best understood as being somewhat analogous to the anime community. People often dress up or carry around some fashion item of a character, watch "furry" shows, or go to conventions.

From the furry reddit page.

Vox even wrote an article about furries a while back.

9 questions about furries you were too embarrassed to ask

No, it's not about having sex in animal costumes.

That is generally how the interest manifests itself.

I used to think it was weird.

I think parts of it definitely can be "weird", I just don't think that is necessarily bad. Some people definitely get freaked out by the costumes.

But I have come to realize it is one of the most harmless forms of self-expression I have seen and accept it as being no different than being someone who is enthusiastically into, say, Japanese animated films.

Yep, furries are very similar to "weebs". There is probably a decent overlap between the two groups too. Being "goth" would probably also be a decent comparison.

This is Pizzagate meets the trans panic syndrome. Jeez these people are nuts.

The better comparison as @Nomad4Ever made would be kids dying their hair black, wearing dark clothes and calling themselves Goths. There is no need for adults to pile on to making fun of kids. They will undoubtedly face enough bullying from their peers without adults getting involved and giving their children the imprimatur to bully furries even more.

There's no need to cater to fantasies and fetishes either. I don't care if a group of kids wants to wear cat ears or lick their paws, the teachers need to teach and the students need to be held accountable to education or get out of the way.

We're rolling over for every kid who wants to be weirder than the other weird kids for shits and giggles, because they're 15 and everyone is stupid. Join in society or be excluded. Participate in education and you can dress up like you want at home.

Why should we cater to the drama and antics of a few at the expense of educating our youth for tomorrow?

 

[Nomad4Ever]

If you really feel the need to call furries fetishists then direct that energy towards me. Kinda weird to call kids “fetishists”.

the teachers need to teach and the students need to be held accountable to education or get out of the way.

Do you have any evidence whatsoever that the teacher are neglecting the students or their duties in any way?

Join in society or be excluded.

Do you think those children should be excluded from society?

Why should we cater to the drama and antics of a few at the expense of educating our youth for tomorrow?

Again, your “feelings” won’t cut it here. I’m going to need to see some kind of proof that allowing people to be furries at school is at the expense of their education.

 

[AmNat]

I'm a furry.

Is this supposed to make people respect your viewpoint more? I doubt it'll have the intended effect.

I see no problem with people facing social consequences ("bullying") for abnormal behavior that is neither useful nor involuntary.

Just Trumpers? There are a lot of liberals and minorities voicing their opinions as well.
