    Why are people acting like any animal based character is a furry? Did everyone forget about Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry, Cats Don’t Dance, Aristocats, Mickey Mouse, American Tale, The Secret of NIMH, Adventures from the Book of Virtues, All Dogs Go To Heaven, Oliver and Company, Lion King, Bambi, Chester Cheetah, The Great Mouse Detective, the Trix Rabbit, basically anything made for kids, old fables and folktales, etc feel free to add to the list

    None of this is new and it reminds me when people were losing their minds over actors playing different characters like it was a new thing

    Anthropomorphic animals have been a staple since Disney and freaking Aesop! 600BCE. People labeling it all the same as people who have a fursona are really weird.

    It seems like this is what the bigots and outrage enthusiasts have latched into since they’ve been thoroughly shunned for hating other demographics (trans people most recently). It seems like it’s getting more posts recently.

    Anthro does not have to mean furry. You can still like them without being a furry
