Love the side-effect of joining a new queer-centric website like Cohost and unfortunately stumbling across people who were very eager to paint a furry subcommunity I'm in as a cult, because we... vet discord invites to keep out right-wing trolls and dox attempts, among other reasons.

honestly they seem like perfectly nice people aside from that so it's just a Weird Feeling seeing them independent of the bird hellsite

EDIT: It should be stated that I have not seen them dredge this up since then, I just recognize names and faces and Damn That's some baggage to go along with those names and faces!
