    We are in the process of identifying and outting members of your group

    Reputations and lives will be destroyed

    Closeted Furries will be presented to the world for the degenerate perverts they are

    You cannot hide Your means are miniscule compared to mine. You now can either turn yourself in or you can cooperate

    This guy talks like a moronic middle school bully. And the fucked up grammar (especially casing) is definitely on brand.

    Just going from the headline, I assumed the "Heritage Foundation" was a non profit that worked to preserve our civilisation's historic buildings, locations, works of art and culture.

    Turns out they're just bigoted fascists, I guess? Huh.

    A lot of those over in the USA at the moment. I mean, we have our fair share in Europe too, but ya know, it feels like it's reaching a tipping point in the USA where fascists have by now infiltrated everything at all levels... :-/

    Heritage Foundation is the main Republican “think tank.” When Republicans are out of power they hire people who they expect will return to power. When a politician writes a book no one gives a shit about, they buy copies in bulk to try to manipulate The NY Times best-seller list and make it seem popular. It’s just an arm of the Republican Party.

    The equivalent for Democrats is the Center for American Progress. It’s not as evil but it’s also not a real think tank. (Real think tanks hire Ph D’s and produce academic-level work. Heritage and CAP are more like marketing companies masquerading as non-profits.)

    I support gay furry hackers, especially if they target the heritage foundation and other trash like that. If they come to light ill donate funds towards further hacking endeavors.

    I don't 'get' furries at all, but I have met a whole whopping 2 of them in my life (that I know of) and they were both super chill and friendly people, so I am all for supporting them! You friendly weirdos. 👍

    Dunno, this seems like he's having fun too, just not clearly enough.

    Or maybe it's really that bad.

    Sometimes they do.

    But usually yes, people who become Nazis (or similar) are not very inventive, not very creative, don't have sense of humor and consider themselves (and some majority they imagine) incapable of those, and those capable - weirdos\geniuses\miracles and such.

    Which is why their instruments of choice are violence and scams - they think they can't do anything else. This also excludes really brave people who consider themselves incapable - because a brave person doesn't have to believe in having some talent to try again and again.

    It's sad really. But at the same time inspiring, since it means that the better we can educate people (or at least teach them bravery, and bravery can be taught) and the more opportunities for development we give them, the fewer Nazis (or similar) there will be.

    You cannot hide Your means are miniscule compared to mine.

    Took me about two minutes on a cellphone to find his home address using public records. And another minute to find his fax number.

    Maybe I should introduce him to the wonderful world of gay furry images.
