The Forbidding Unlawful Representation of Roleplaying in Education, or FURRIES, Act, filed by Austin-area Republican State Rep. Stan Gerdes, would “prohibit any non-human behavior by a student, including presenting himself or herself, on days other than exempt days, as anything other than a human being.”
The law would allow for exempt days, such as Halloween and other school dress-up days.
The law defines “non-human” behavior as “any type of behavior or accessory displayed by a student in a school district other than behaviors or accessories typically displayed by a member of the homo sapiens species,” with provided examples being:
Using a litter box for the passing of stool, urine or other human byproducts
A personal or outward display, except during a school play or by a school mascot, through surgical or superficial means of features that are non-human such as using tails, leashes, collars or other accessories designed for pets
Using fur, other than naturally occurring human hair or a wig made to look like human hair
Artificial, animal-like ears
Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development
Students who bark, meow, hiss or make other animal noises that are not human speech
Licking oneself or others for the purpose of grooming or maintenance.
Rent free.
Oppress furries Get cyberhacked
Fuck how the heck they find double entendre.acronyms for any shit they pull. Coincidentally eat shit assholes what the fuck did those poor people do to you? I don’t consider myself a furry but have friends that does.
Furries are the ultimate dorks. I know I am very furry affiliated and most of my friends are furries… but this makes being a furry badass nyao.
Surgical means‽
Also why are they legislating about this. Texas schools have real problems like gun violence and illiteracy. Furries and animal role play are just things some people have always done that don’t really harm anyone and given how they persist across so many cultures and times could actually be considered a natural behavior of homo sapiens like parrots’ mimicry
So can’t dress as a Republican?
Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development
Does that forbid earrings as well? They’re non-biological extensions/modifications of the human body.
Better yet. Simply wearing glasses?
technically all clothing is illegal now?
No because earrings are not physiological.
What world do these people live in? I just can’t imagine this is a issue and i imagine that passing a law like this will just lead to kids definitely shitting in litter boxes because breaking the law is fun, imagine the court case of a kid dressed like a cat and pissed in a box… straight to jail
Man they keep coming back to the litterbox thing, it really freaks them tf out. Even though its been debunked dozens of time, my conservative friends all swear they know a guy that knows a guy that swears he saw one for real!
This is no more outlandish or unscientific than the WHOLE anti-trans thing:
Men pretending to be trans to access woman spaces does not happen any more frequently than furry students shitting in litterboxes.
The right is consistently and historically mobilized by fantastic beasts their cult leaders brainwash them about.
Oh, the litter boxes are real…
It’s just that their purpose is to be used during a school shooting lockdown.
I would not be able to stop myself from laughing if i saw that happening for real but these people think of it as a threat to their existence, as a crime.
What a witless world we live in.
This started out as a far-far-fetched construction to attack trans rights. In fact, whoever designed this hoax is Goebbels-level diabolical. If you break it down, it subconsciously re-arranges the notions of self-identification and toilet use, in a way that presents “reckless liberalism” as an immediate threat to normalcy.
The people who eat this shit up may be stupid, but the people who design it are not. This goes beyond straw-man attack and slippery slope fallacy. It rather combines both into a powerful manipulation technique that bears resemblance to mass hypnosis. They have someone really malevolent on the propaganda payroll, folks.
Sooooo much freeedommmm… By limiting self expression.
Republicans are fucking weirdos.
So a furry suit made from human hair is ok? Asking for a friend
Besides them being stupid as hell to conduct this ridiculous culture war, I take issue with another thing, the name:
Forbidding Unlawful Representation of Roleplaying in Education
It’s not unlawful until you forbid it. So the title makes no sense. You’re not forbidding the unlawful. You’re forbidding the previously lawful, making it unlawful.
Stupid assholes.
Plus the acronym rules are inconsistent. It should be FURRE or FURRORIE
Repugniklan Anger Withering our Rights
Forbidding Unlawful Representation of Roleplaying in Education
In Texas parties only lawful alignment is allowed. We don’t care if your Good or Evil, as long as your not chaotic or neutral.
Oh boy, the fascists have really done it now: they’re going after the beastpeople! Beware its poisonous spittle!
Kinda like this one I know the litter shit is bullshit. Though we all knew those annoying ass kids in school.
Alternatively, why not just… let people be themselves and weird? Because they were annoying to you? So many people are annoying for one reason or another, do we need to discipline them for it? Moreover, should we? Or would that just be limiting our expression and enforcing uniformity?
Yeah they were annoying. So were the pseudointillectual douchebags (I would know I was one). So were the jocks. So was basically everyone. Kids are annoying. Banning child behavior for being annoying is part of the creation of a less free society for no good reason.
Yeah some kids are annoying, but they’re young and learning how to behave in a society. They shouldn’t be handcuffed in school and sent to jail. Nor should other kids live in fear of having what they witnessed happen to them (although that’s probably the whole point of this).
These idiot boomers fell for the facebook propaganda.
