"::::I have nothing against criticism of furry fandom, I just believe it should be valid criticism. I don't think valid criticism comes from so-called ""humor"" sites like Something Awful, Encyclopedia Dramatica, Crush Yiff Destroy, or people who learned everything they know about furries from a fictionalized TV show like CSI. That's like claiming the Weekly World News is a reputable source.  

 ::::If someone has criticism against the fandom, then their argument should be able to stand on its own merits rather than relying on the LOLZ factor. All citing SA, ED, CYD, et al. does is prove they have been unquestioningly repeating these tired old jokes for so long that they're started to actually believe them. —
