> A Rolling Stone writer said Furry Con is a safe place for children.
This is a total and absolute lie if you know what "safe space" is supposed to mean. Not even comic book conventions are a "safe space" for children. They all have adult content and the segregation is very poor.
- cool_boy_mew, Ardainian Hebrew Israelite and luithe like this.

@condret safe space usually means zero tolerance for offending content. "we have porn but it's hidden" isn't even really a "safe space"
-
@Moon largely depends on what you define as safespace
-
the last time I was at a convention they let porn stars and cam sites have booths.
-
@apropos @condret I have been to conventions, I am speaking about my own experience seeing gross shit that kids shouldn't be exposed to.

@Moon @condret that's a very charitable, overt reading, but "furry con is a safe space for children" actually means "furry con is a good place for LGBT children (which is 100% of them, properly motivated) to see and experience LGBT lifestyles so that they can immediately grow towards one of those lifestyles without having an awkward 'questioning' phase where someone might ask awkward questions like 'would you not prefer to have grandchildren?'", and it means that much more than it means your zero tolerance thing when it's spoken by people who use the term at all. Normal people, without the sinister covert meaning, would just say "child-friendly space" or "adult space".

@Moon that's right up there with saying epstein's island is a safe place for children
-
@sun_eater it's about a furry con in florida banning kids because of a state law about showing porn to minors
-

@Moon Future generations are going to look back and just wonder what the fuck was going with this age.
