So I can tell that this whole list is incorrect based off of the very FIRST point being a lie.
โCharlie Kirk said gay people should be stoned to death.โ
Fact Checked: This is a widely circulated out-of-context quote, misrepresented for ill-intentions.
Context: In June 2024, Charlie was responding to a clip of Ms Rachel citing the bibles command to โlove thy neighbourโ to justify support for pride month. He argued that she was cherry-picking scripture, as the second half of that same biblical section is Leviticus 18. The following is the direct quote from Charlie:
โBy the way, Ms Rachel, you might want to crack open that bible of yoursโ part of that same scripture is that thou shall lay with another man shall be stoned to death.โ
Charlie was demonstrating how people cherry-pick biblical passages. He did NOT say โgay people should be stoned to death today,โ he did NOT call for violence, and he did NOT advocate for enforcing this ancient law in modern America.
For this reason, you have lost all credibility and itโs assured every other point will be backed by a falsehood as well.
Do your research folksโ donโt be like this guy. โค๏ธ
These people claim Charlieโs murder was justified because he โspread hate.โ If you ask them to be specific, theyโll say the same 5 things that were debunked back in September. Itโs an endless cycle of laziness and a refusal to fact check the nonsense they hear
Itโs so deeply tiring
I find it r*tarded how many in the comment section don't look into Charlie Kirk's views on LGBT cons.
He's been very open to letting them support the cause because we do share views on guns & immigration. Gen Z proves we're changing as a party for the better. Kirk was the main one they (including myself) listen to & allowed to lead the new age of conservatism. The best part about him is that through him, Trump was pushing for our goals that previous Rep. Presidents & Congress don't want or refuse to address. He was the voice of the new right.
Despite Kirk's more open views on social policies, they still label him a bigot & a fascist. They spew repeated talking points because they can't bring themselves to agree with a cons. (furry or not) whether it's because of trauma or ego. Then, they ostracize any Furry that even slightly agree with him. Even the more lib. ones.
@moonlitmustelid post 1 thing commemorating Kirk & they immediately call it trashy art (despite many of them liking artwork that isn't as detailed as her's).
When they say they're caring & compassionate, expect the opposite. They will degrade your artwork, threaten you, call you things you aren't, & (probably) dox you if you even say something remotely different from their echo chambers.
The point of communities is to help us belong & find someone who shares your interests. Furries is disproportionately lib., but most of the time, they don't talk politics (or try not to). Don't let the internet fool you. These people bullying this woman are a fringe (& probably violent) minority.
The reason why Furries in public don't talk politics is because they don't go to Fur Cons for the politics. They came for the art & socialization.
Fur Cons allow social groups that help them connect with others better. 2 of these groups, the Rep. & Christian Furries, only get the most hate because the older cons. & Christians do have disgust with LGBTs & Furries for a long time. Not to mention many of them probably had a bad experience with them in their towns/homes.
Time, however, has shown that's not 100% the case. My parents are Protestants & yet when they found out I was a Bi Furry, they didn't much care as long as I find someone to take care of me. My father said as long as I ain't one of those that makes it their entire identity, then I will be treated with as much respect as any other neighbor.
I am the man today because I wasn't hated for my sexuality in my cons. town. They all respected me & appreciate my conversations with them & their families. I have been able to talk to both lib. & cons. throughout my life & decided I'm a Libertarian Rep., with a strong emphasis on protecting American interests (i.e., protectionist).
The only reason we don't see this more diverse political landscape in the community as much as it should be is because the younger Furries are repeatedly told online by the older Progressive Furries that rural America still hates them for who they are, despite generational changes proving otherwise.
When I hear one of these "compassionate" Furries tell me I'm a self-hating bigot, I told one of them this:
"What are your views on white people, public education, guns, health, & illegal immigration? If you're calling me these terms, then you're probably a lib. Well, do you favor giving specific groups special treatment? If so, shouldn't that logic go towards low-income rural white working class workers as well? If you don't believe whites don't need a leg up because of white privilege, then this runs perpendicular to the lib. ideology as they believe all should have a voice & should be financially uplifted. That's one of the reason's why I don't align with modern Liberalism.
Another reason why I'm not a lib. is because Dems haven't propped up any candidate that aligns with my values on preserving 2A rights, reforming immigration to make it harder to illegally come into the country, reforming birthright citizenship, or getting additives out of our foods. The closest I got to that was Bernie Sanders, who was outspoken about the labor exploitation of illegals/visas, supported curbing illegal immigration, & was pro-gun. However, ever since 2016 & beyond, he's became a generic Dem. that doesn't mirror the man I supported.
Since 2020 (when I was of age to vote), every candidate that has run in my community & state has been a partisan Dem. Why would I vote for someone that doesn't align with the majority of my priorities (let along 1 of them)? Sure, I could get special treatment, but that honestly does more harm to the community than good. Heck, I could say I didn't like one of these LGBT books being in an Elementary school (where the boy fantasized sucking another guy's d*ck) & I'd be called a homophobe (which is rather weird they're defending that). These policies Dems have pushed for & enacted have been very influential as to why LGBT support has been going down in support for the 1st time since Stonewall.
The Rep. Party do indeed have their flaws, especially on things pertaining to LGBTs, but the new right, MAGA (which consisted of ancestral Dems & everyday men/women), has expressed more openness to people like me. This made me more open to voting Rep. because I knew the party was changing to my liking. If I don't like the Rep. running, I just don't vote (or vote to primary him/her like I did with Cornyn).
The media & Dem. influencers will say MAGA is the new KKK/Nazi Party, but it's honestly more diverse in opinions, religion, & skin color than the Rep. Party before & during the age of Bush. The only people that genuinely insulted my interests were the "true cons." who believe MAGA & Trump are RINOs.
We're all Furries, but other than our interest in anthropomorphic creatures, we aren't a monolith. Like every community, we'll always have difference of interests. Just because I don't want a politician that wants to give me special treatment because I like c*cks, it doesn't mean I hate myself or hate LGBTs. I just don't like what they're offering that doesn't pertain to LGBT topics."
