I feel like the strong hatred for furries is rooted in homophobia and ableism. Since most furries are gay and neurodivergent. If most furries were straight white neurotypical men, furries would be socially accepted.
I wouldn’t say rooted in, but they are all strongly related. So many biases are just “gasp, someone who is/does something out of the ordinary that I don’t understand? Must be wrong/horrible/gross”

People also treat furries as if they aren't contributing to society, do they not know how much money it is to get a fursuit 😭
Thousands of dollars, furries have good money (at least the ones with full suits)

Yeah, knew a guy who was ableist and got super transphobic at us when we lightly razzed him for not understanding “furries aren’t all trying to Do Things to animals” after like 15 different attempts at explaining it. Same thought process same circles stuff like that
