Apparently, having enough enthusiasm for anthropomorphized animals tends to make one more susceptible to adopting... questionable or problematic ideas into one's worldview.
That is, apparently being a furry makes one more vulnerable to Crank Magnetism:

I mean, it's not as bad as, say, Anonymous and 4chan, where you have pretty much a solid mass of Dunning-Kruger effect resulting in pretty much everyone involved having a worldview composed entirely of delusions (see the previously linked wiki's articles on the Dunning-Kruger effect and Anonymous, then print out and frame the latter's remark about "pretty much a waste of everyone's time" because it's the truest words ever spoken about 4chan), but damn are furries willing to believe some probably-not-for-the-best shit.
Sorry for yet another vent, morale really has not improved much for me recently.
(Also I'd rather not get specific here; this was prompted by a whole bunch of different things anyway.)
