Clarification*

Kage is vehemently in support of trans, gay, etc. groups. He's against and has made it very clear he's against nazis and pedophilia.

Given the current events, MMR might be good to refresh on.

And now, that division in the fandom stays.

I'll ask this question to EVERY fur who's had this beef with eachother for decades; is this about the fandom, or yourselves?

Thank you for reading through, if you have.

I attended Mark Merlino's funeral, virtually albeit, but I was still there. The last conversation me and him had was about this division in the fandom, and him considering a mutual apology with Kage, for the good of the fandom. He refused.

Kage has support Project Dogbomb since it's inception, getting it significant attention through his own following and AC.

Ignoring all of that because of decades-old beef is childish, an indication of someone utterly unable to let go of the past.

He's run the Anthrocon auction for 28 years, and Anthrocon itself for 20+ years. Through this he's established amazing ties with the city of Pittsburgh, helping Furried as a whole have a better reputation in the east coast.
October 6, 2025 at 3:30 PM
Here's a record of some amazing things Kage has done;

$500k USD to charities since 2006, just from Anthrocon.

Raised $21k to help a small business owner in the Pittsburgh area, (they sadly ended up closing down anyways, but the replacement has also been a friend to the Furs!
October 6, 2025 at 3:30 PM
This is lasting salt from Kage's reluctance to throw out an old friend, pre-2016.

Xydexx, if you're reading this; you are at least 50 years old. This is stupid and divisional at a time where furry is already under attack by mainstream conservatives. Do you really wish to aid them?
October 6, 2025 at 3:30 PM
This isn't surprising, Xydexx hasn't liked Kage for YEARS.

Uncle Kage is a good person, while having his faults, has dedicated his life in service to the community. This is a thread defending that position, while also addressing general factionalism in Furry Fandom.

"Mr. Beast (D)" i think you just made every neoliberal running the DNC cum

Something isn't "ableist" just because disabled folk can't do it. The NBA doesn't paraplegic folk either, you're not here whining about that.

All of these are issues that have been dealt with fine by suiters in the past. They also note down that people with disabilities are allowed handlers.
June 6, 2025 at 7:30 PM
What safety concerns have you brought up lmao? You called me a classist, and then said furries shouldn't care about external opinions
June 6, 2025 at 7:08 PM
We moved on to a completely different topic. Bringing back a desperate point and pretending that was my intentioj is disingenuous
June 6, 2025 at 6:50 PM
This is completely incorrect. There's a fairly famous incident in which a fella walked out in full fetish gear, fully erect.
June 6, 2025 at 6:35 PM
That's a great decision to make; for yourself. But when judging conrunners for their choices, saying they're somehow perpetuating elitism, you pressure them to make a decision that puts us all at risk.

And then the following panel; "Everything you just heard was fascist because they disagreed with me specifically"
