If you're wondering why there are so many FURRIES responding to this, along with current and former WMF insiders....well, yeah. Fediverse sites are just like Wikipedia; havens for painfully-online cranks of various kinds. That's a major reason why it was set up in the first place. Outsiders who have been rejected by "society" (mainly Twitter, before and after Lord Elon took over), setting up an "inclusionary" private internet sub-world....where they can abuse and exclude anyone they don't like. Of course the Wikimedians would like to join that. (Will this be a busy, high-traffic fede-site? No way to tell. WP nuts already have pleny of IRC and Discord channels to piss around on. And stab each other in the back.)

You should see the darker places in the fediverse. Back corners of it cater openly to pedophiles. Google it.

One of the early posts on WMF social is from "Yiff Life"
Yiff meaning people pretending to be animals fucking.

Don't leave youtube out of the "adult" sexual cartoon business complete with "horse fuckery" want to "fox with the big bitchen boy" with "the honey flowing tonight and this bitch is hot" the main character {a fuck-toy bee bitch or fox ripe for yiffing" has a "rainbow on her vagina." This content is run as a TV show on youtube which censors content that does not benefit Google's bottom line.

Well done and kudos to the Wikimedia Foundation and Google- for contributing to the fuck-up-id-ness of the greater society; Helping the Greater good and spreading the news not so much. WMF spread those fox vaginas.

Meh. This is a loose connection. Some furry saw a big organisation make its introduction to the platform (or is it a protocol?) and took the opportunity to shill their favourite cartoon. You might do better to point out the proportion of furries in the actual editorship, or better yet the related stuff you can find on commons. Interestingly enough, wikifur is included on Special:Interwiki, but this is a poor line of attack either way.

edit: this popular furry musician knows what's up!

Sex sells - thus youtube/Google is into the "adult-sexual-content cartoon business." Wikipedia was funded from porn and contains all sorts of nonsense including child porn.

In the 1970's "fritz the cat" was an X-rated adult-cartoon (Crumb and Bakshi) that was in part social commentary. The 1970's opened a door for sex in films (the green door) which was closed in the 1930's..


All the current nonsense is just juvenile-adults that won't grow up playing "peter pan" by watching childish "adult swim," writing about cartoons and manga on Wikipedia, and posting on 4chan and now WMF/fediverse. Yiffing is big business.

WMF building an "encyclopedia" is total nonsense.

Wexter, I'm guessing you've never seen Drawn Together, have you? It makes things like Helluva Boss or South Park seem bland by comparison.

After you watch that, try seeing Panty & Stocking. It was directly influenced by Drawn Together. We are in the "Golden Age" of offensive animation, I guess.

EB.. I did not even look in that direction - I just know that my aging man-child nephew in-law spends most of his time fixated on this nonsense where, mostly thanks to him, his daddy ages into a retirement he now cannot afford.

The only offense I take is that this kind of content is juvenile in aspect with the intended audience getting their jollies while at the same time being backward, narrow, addled, dependent, entitled, and immobile.

If you want sex , of any variety, it is readily available most anywhere especially outside very puritan minded U.S. Ill conceived, puritan mindedness is also why we have cartoons instead of the real thing.

I spent my life in the real world of visceral experience. A blade runner quote comes to mind;

“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate."

Stunted immature people that lack the guts to do and see things which others could only imagine. So instead of watch nonsensical cartoons or editing nonsensical Wikipedia go outside and do something, anything!

You're quite correct. Every generation has had its malcontents who decided that "real life" in the meatworld was so awful, they decided to live in a fantasy universe. But the late 20th century was unparalleled.

It's my opinion that baby boomers must take some blame/credit, as they really got it started by developing lifelong obsessions with things like Tolkien, Dungeons & Dragons and other RPGs, science fiction, and edgy underground comics. Before the 1960s it was a very minor thing. The first "Renaissance Fairs" were held in the mid-60s. Then we got major science fiction conventions in the 70s. The first ever Star Trek con was held in 1972, and supposedly 20 times more people than expected showed up.

The juvenility peaked in the 1980s and 90s with people wearing "fur suits", playing videogames obsessively, and fanatically consuming Japanese manga/anime. Today it's "mainstream culture" partly because millennials fell for this guff HARD. They didn't invent it but they practically live it today.

This week is the San Diego Comic-Con. Where thousands of people (mostly millennials) showed up dressed as anime, videogame, and fantasy characters....

4chan has a fairly active >>>/out/ board, so you can't quite accuse them of neglecting the "visceral" aspect of life. Their main ingroup thing is a hatred of cairns, as far as I can tell.

Way back - in my memory there was an entomologist making armor in the dorm basement for the SCA - the shops are still there evidently - it was all centered around creativity and doing. ;

Part of what makes "the dorm hall" so special is that residents have access to 11 Fine Arts Shops and Studios in the dungeon of our castle. There’s plenty of space down here to let your creativity fly or to try out something new.

... provides community members with 11 artist workshops that range from letterpress to woodshop to jewelry making. Every week, volunteer student managers spend two hours a week holding "Office Hours" and educating any Risley Resident or Out-of-House Member. No appointment or experience needed! Simply check our "Squidserv" or check out our upcoming events on Campus Groups!

"Hard" Science fiction can be quite predictive.

EB, You hit the nail on the head - A key word now is consumption!
