Degeneracy is the lifeblood of a healthy online space, and furries are the canaries of enshittification. If the furries are gone or too well behaved, it's a sign of a dying platform.

Honestly not even bad life advice...

You might not get somebody's POV, you might think it's weird or bizarre, hell you might have no fucking clue how they got there, but the end of the day, as long as they're not harming other people in the process, does it matter how they view the world?

Being exposed to all different walks of life is a good thing, no matter whether it's Tumblr fetishes or real-world diversity. There's a reason that higher education leads people to be less bigoted, and this is a big part of it.

Edit: Just adding on. I know myself I used to be a lot more close-minded than I am now, and I credit going to university with that - as said above, it opened my mind to different POVs and walks of life. Albeit I'm still not quite ready for whatever fetish pooltoys involves haha

This. I keep following many kinks in the fediverse, but I'm just a quite normie gay cis man myself. It's important to understand how different people are, and be ok with that.

You don't even need to understand, just respect.
