There are four groups of people needed for any tech environment to strive, furries, femboys, Transfems, and Linux users (especially Arch btw users).

okay so the furries are all in on frontend while the Linux graybeards do the low level C shit. the femboys can't get enough Rust and are somewhere in the middle doing web backends and services, the transfems like Rust too, but also weirder things like Nix or functional programming and lean more towards OS and systems type of stuff right?

i like this because it explains why the furries seem to have more visibility than the other groups, it lets each group have a little bit of space while still all being part of the same team, and honestly it matches the people i've worked with like 80-90%.

...you somehow described me perfectly with the transfem part

Same. I feel utterly exposed

I think those are present in all previously stated categories.

All the furries are on mastodon. Not that bootlickers social media

It’s either furries or Nazis.

Nazis are an invasive plant in the ecosystem. They must be eradicated for the system to thrive.

Bad analogy because invasive plants all come from an ecosystem where they're not problematic. Like, kudzu is fine in its native habitat.

Nazis are more like toxic waste - not good anywhere, except buried deep below the surface of the earth, along with signage about how this is not a place of honor

I learned about furries' existence on 4chan many years ago, and I definitely don't think that site was healthy at any point in time.

Every functioning city has a sewer. Shits got to go somewhere.

Just because the ecosystem function is not productive in anthropogenic terms, does not mean it doesn't serve a purpose.

In this case it's to keep all the btards together. It's the shrubby marsh of the internet. Smells. Shitty to be in. Get scraped up if you try walking through itm
