LRT: i want to talk about misinformation, and how bad actors intentionally distort the truth and make up events to spark outrage against fringe and minority groups
lets take this recent example
to state the obvious, this is not true
according to the actual, y’know, adults running the school… this isn’t even happening
“A lot of the information that’s been put out there is completely incorrect or false”
students are not dressing up as cats and dogs. and the “videos shared online” are not from their schools
this post takes an entire news story out of context, intentionally. parading a partial quote from a fursuiter as an admission of guilt to charges of a school “letting furries bite, bark, & lick them.”
that’s not what happened
lets read the actual story
this is moral panic based on false stories, videos from schools that aren’t theirs, amplified into action.
but lets hear from a furry!
“yeah! what about one of these furry students? what’s their side of the story?”
lol nah, that would be good reporting
enter Strudel…
here’s the actual news story
students (and parents) participated in a walk-out at a local middle school to protest “furries.” this was born from an online petition to more strictly enforce the school’s dress code:
ok so this adult furry who wasn’t there but believes the rumors… agrees with the parents who are protesting!
so we all agree this thing—that didn’t happen—is bad
what a lovely thought exercise! “if furries were biting people that would be bad,” we all agree, great reporting
so a petition wants to clamp down on furries for violating dress code and sparks a walk-out. why the furry panic??
here’s what some students say.
bad stuff right?! and that’s exactly what endw*keness cited! so it must be true!
what does the school have to say?! WELL…
but what’s left in the dirt here is… so many people believe this is TRUE. including our random furry!
and buried in our story is “it’s not, by the way.”
this leaves the door wide open for bad actors, like endw*keness, to step in and do what they do best—spark outrage
Strudel is ID’d only as “a member of the furry community” for a decade
so… not a student. no affiliation with the school is implied
they make some rational points. “school is for learning,” dont be a distraction to yourself or your peers, etc.
but they buy into these rumors?!
this is not the first time they’ve used furries as a scapegoat
remember “litterboxes in schools?”
fake. no schools were supplying literboxes for students to use
only one school stocked litter for students… in case of a lockdown (aka: school shooting)
i need you to understand that these people frame their content in the worst possible light on purpose
they cherry pick quotes on purpose
they promote outright, proven lies on purpose
their goal is not to tell the truth, its to get you mad
thats why their post ends with THEY EVEN INTERVIEWED A FURRY
their framing implies that this furry was involved in this child-biting. your proof is standing right there!
the (they/them), BTW, is there to trigger outrage in the ongoing effort to frame trans people as freaks
- block these pages, do not engage, do not outrage rt, dont even write their names
- check your sources online before you comment or share anything
- call out lies IRL. with friends, family, etc. its so important to squash disinfo among our real neighbors
stay safe yall
my point is, be very wary of disinfo from pages like this
it’s intentional, its malicious, and it always targets fringe and minority groups with the purpose of stirring outrage and increasing the perceived validity of the bad actor
my recommendations are:
good, im sick of biting my tongue in mixed company
fuck Bill Murray
this old prick sexually assaulted a friend of mine. he’s a piece of shit
i hope his career ends and he gets buried in lawsuits
“Bill Murray has a very dark side; that’s hardly news.”
Geena Davis’s new memoir spotlights the actor’s pattern of misdeeds, the latest in a string of misconduct claims.
WOW HI THIS TOOK OFF HUH??
im glad this resonated with folks and they found it helpful
i have nothing to plug except my streams, which are casual and feature slightly less info-dumping
and if you wanna support me you can buy me a coffee?! thanks yall!

has that ever happened to you?
MUSHY FWA POST INCOMING

bro the only thing being threatened is your K/D
meanwhile 300 anti-LGBTQ+ bills were passed or introduced last year
my right to exist is being threatened at the state and federal level
shut the fuck up
i cant believe i need to say this
if someone tells you to leave them alone, leave them alone
repeated DMs and ban evading is never going to win the other person over
not taking “no” for an answer is the biggest red flag
highlight of my year might be this traditional art commish from
@brushykb
✨🖤 they nailed everything from pose to outfit to colors—really captures the energy im tryna bring to 2022
cool, my partner tried to give blood and couldn’t because he’s gay
even though he’s on prep, he’d had to have “abstained from sex for 3 months” to donate… because being gay = having HIV?
homophobia in the middle of a national blood shortage, awesome, i love it here
DO NOT TALK TO THE HATE SPEECH MEDIA NETWORK
NOT FOR THE MEMES
NOT WITH GOOD INTENTIONS
THEY ARE NOT A NEWS SOURCE
THEIR GOAL IS TO FRAME YOU AS A FREAK FOR RATINGS
FOR AN AUDIENCE THEY ACTIVELY STOKE TO VIOLENCE
THEY WILL ACTIVELY ENDANGER YOU AND YOUR COMMUNITY
this christmas i give you the gift of the first ever commissioned bnu 🎁
thanks
@PunkPega
for helping me create my sona way back in 2018, i still love this art and its wild to see how much the design has evolved since then!! ✨❤️🎄
The new Reese's "Werewolf Tracks" PB Cups taste pretty specifically like Reese's Pieces. It hits you immediately and it's very distinct from the regular kind. I dig them.
its actually encouraging to see a local news story that doesn't marginalize or gawk at the furry community. just vibes and info on how local businesses prepare
have anyone determined WHY this PR stunt was done yet??
like… why the nets? why Tyra Banks? is she promoting a new show? will there be furries on it? or is the NBA trying to court furries suspicious wealth?
I JUST NEED TO KNOW WHY
