Furries, please listen.

STOP using ‘coon’ instead of ‘raccoon’

I feel like this has been a back and forth for years now and furries don’t listen because ‘uwu cute’

It’s a slur, it’s really not dropping that many syllables, and it makes PoC furs uncomfortable. Stop it.

I would censor it but I wanna drive the point home. It’s the little things to make the fandom more inclusive.

CORRECTION: This issue SPECIFICALLY makes BLACK furries uncomfortable.

I typed this tweet very angrily + clumsily, just correcting my error there.

Doesn& #39;t delegitimise my point in any way, but just adding clarity.

I& #39;ve had this word used against me many times growing up, so my experience with it is very different and difficult to talk about than some of yours.

This is getting attention so give these following links attention too and educate yourselves.

& #39;dont let it bother you& #39;

No, I got other things to deal with, why don& #39;t you put in the work for once.

Y& #39;all can educate yourselves and actually do something with your day, like learning to avoid saying something that harms people of colour.

Sort yourself out.
