This is the worst thing Fortnite has ever made.

@KiekoTheOrca @Blaidd13579 @G5dime Yo are you fucking slow the supreme court just legalized trans and gay forced conversion therapy open your fucking eyes.

@Blaidd13579 @G5dime Trump and most normal conservative people have no problem with gay people. And even if some people don’t support it that doesn’t mean they wanna take away anybody’s rights? Shit there is also plenty of gay republican figures just on X.

I assumed this would spark conversation, it’s a 50/50 comment thread below it. Only thing I’ll say on it, calling someone a racist , fascist, trump supporter , for being in the middle. Probably isn’t the best way to get your argument across. Furry is escapism to some.

@G5dime Being in the middle is not being apolitical, being apolitical is having no political opinions. Being in the middle means you agree on some things on each side. With furries usually the right part is transphobia and usually the left is anti war. That's just what I've seen.

@GoatedHater @NolanPrinter @Timbitties @Daniboivpn @andredotuasset That's what you think.

@AntiTheSheep @NolanPrinter @Timbitties @Daniboivpn @andredotuasset you’re actually really a sheep aren’t you

cutting a REAL friendship over a fortnite skin is just crazy. either get some real friends or touch some grass and live your life pls. stop being chronically online

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime Yeah as long as people aren't openly assholes, we're good.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime It doesn't sound like there's an issue then

Do politics BELONG in the furry community?

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime Yeah politics can absolutely be avoided in the fandom I'm not saying it's a critical part of the interaction or something it's just if it somehow gets brought up and conservative views come out things will change pretty quickly.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime Seems like it's just easier for everyone to avoid politics then, since the point is just to have fun. Doesn't it?

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime No that's stupid I don't want a mini interview for every person I talk to at a con, it's just if I find out you're a conservative I'm done with you.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime How would you know their views? Do you want people coming up to you at cons saying they're a transphobe who supports Trump? Is that a better experience? Do you want to interrogate everyone you interact with before you "vibe"?

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime No keeping politics out of furry would be not caring about that persons crazy views and just acting like he's not a terrible person and vibing anyway.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime This sounds like you're making an argument in favor of keeping politics out of furry.

@RadLuigi @LilSmurfYT Yes the models of the skins were crafted by humans but the design of the character itself was not made by humans and is an entirely AI generated concept constructed by AI

@AntiTheSheep @LilSmurfYT I mean this design was made by humans... I see nothing wrong here.

Mfs will cut off their day ones because they bought tung tung tung sahur 😭✌️

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime The people they were talking to. If you say you're a transphobe or that you support the orange most furries will immediately ditch your ass.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime Abandoned by whom?

The furry fandom has always had roots in queer & kink culture since the very beginning, this isn’t an opinion this is facts. As a community by and for queer people, we have a duty to fight for the safety and the rights of all LGBTQ+ people. Anyone who knowingly *chooses* not…

@ki35005 @andredotuasset No my other friends don't play Fortnite

@AntiTheSheep @andredotuasset Have you actually stopped talking to people you know IRL over this?

@ki35005 @andredotuasset Well yes you could try that and that could work but it could also not, I don't know it would depend on the friend. I think if they genuinely didn't care that it was AI slop and were fully supportive of more of it, yeah I can't have that person as a friend.

@AntiTheSheep @andredotuasset Wouldn’t it be better to try and convince your friends not to buy the skins and not support Epic’s decisions on this? I don’t think ruining a friendship over this is worth it, especially if you know the person for years

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina It depends. If they say they don't care if what they use is made by humans or not, cut off. If they say anything else, we're probably chill. I might be overreacting on this AI thing a slight bit, but I just like human creativity, yk? And I'm tired. It's worth arguing for me. 😂

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Let’s say you’re right, which you are You think fighting with your friend about it and cutting them off is needed in any compacity No. You don’t cut your friends off for differing opinions. Such a brain dead mindset

I don't care to block people over those skins, their choice to buy that trash. I'll just think you're a dumbass for buying them honestly.

@ShepBesky @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime It's not the norm conservative furries are recluses, they live online and if they go to cons they never speak about their beliefs because they'd get abandoned instantly.

@AntiTheSheep @Nerdy_Hawaiian @G5dime How can people say not to bring politics into the fandom? Who wouldn't want screeching like this to become the norm?

@ki35005 @andredotuasset That's right 👍 Because if you don't you're just letting them feel like it's completely normal to praise a multi million dollar company for adding a skin that is entirely AI generated. It took Fortnite ZERO work to add that skin, so whats to say they're not gonna do it more?

@AntiTheSheep @andredotuasset So for you, not blocking a friend or ending a friendship over this means you’re supporting brainrot and AI?

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Yes buying the skin supports Epic Games but the entire point is that its LAZY! Epic Game shouldn't be getting any support for taking something that was entirely generated by AI and putting it into the game.

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina You’re right Imagine being sat down by your friend, and he goes “we need to talk. You supported epic games by buying an AI skin. This harms the gaming industry and I’m no longer supporting you as a friend” Still dead as fuck 😭

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Well know you know 😭 Too bad you're still gonna be an arrogant asshole that always thinks hes right and doesnt give a shit if people are subject to hate in a safe progressive space or if people lose their jobs because of AI slop

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Lol Had no clue man

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina again, it's not about it being tung tung sahur. What if it was something else? You're really just gonna let your friend support soulless AI slop that 0 humans put any effort into?

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Imagine getting sat down by your friend and he goes “We need to talk. You bought Tung Tung Sahur, this is unacceptable” I’m dead man😭

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina It is reality you're just willfully ignorant because you're not tapped in like I am, probably because you're scared to see the real terrors of the world. You want the world to be a peaceful place where everyone gets along all the time THAT is not reality.

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Buddy I’m not debating politics with you in a Fortnite thread Obviously your mentally impaired if you think even 10% of all that is reality, but yeah

@XziledTV @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina Yeah I know people arent perfect, people are fucking STUPID. I don't value AI greed over friendships, it's just that if my friend started openly supporting AI greed, I can no longer support them as a person.

@AntiTheSheep @Sol_Hohojiro @ZephyrGiratina What. Lmao Brother you don’t have to take a stand on EVERYTHING People aren’t perfect. Shit look at yourself. And for the record, you’re disgusting valuing corporate “AI greed” over friendships. That’s just a nasty mindset Seems like u “not needing validation” doesn’t work
