There seem to be some people on Lemmy who genuinely believe that they are an animal. They say they are an “unperson” or discuss conversing with “animals” who “happen to be born in human bodies”. They see their struggle as on par with the struggle for trans people, and their right to be recognized as animals as a part of a broader societal struggle for queer acceptance.

Well, this is fucking stupid.

First of all, comparing “I’m a puppy uWu” to gender dysphoria trivializes what trans people go through. Furries are not struggling like trans people. They are simply mocking trans people (whether that mockery is intentional or not is besides the point).

Second of all, you’re not a fucking animal bro ffs. Being an animal isn’t a state of mind. It isn’t a vibe. It isn’t a social construct. It isn’t something you’re assigned at birth. It’s about DNA. You have 50% of DNA from a human mom, and 50% of your DNA from a human dad, so you have 100% human DNA (granted maybe you have like 0.1% Neanderthal DNA but whatever). So you’re a human. This shouldn’t be a hard concept to grasp.

If you can speak a human language, and have the mental wherewithal required to use the internet, then you have a HUMAN MIND. And if you “just so happen to be born in a human body” then you have a HUMAN BODY. HUMAN MIND + HUMAN BODY = HUMAN. IT’S ALL HUMAN. YOU ARE HUMAN. Just because you have a bestiality fetish does not make you a fucking bobcat ffs

    People like you make a mockery of the LGTBQ+ movement and give ideological ammunition to the right and discredit the transgender movement. You should be embarrassed for choosing such an utterly stupid hill to die on

    Nice projection there. Transphobic, ableist, willfully ignorant and hateful. Seeing you go around the same few incoherently jumbled points has ceased to be fun, so I think I’m going to move on from this thread. I can only hope that one day you will also be able to move on. Or isolate from society to minimize the harm you’ve done.

      Transphobic, ableist, willfully ignorant and hateful.

      So this is your final resort. When you realize you can longer defend your position you resort to name calling
