I'm not part of the furry community but I think a lot of groups that had traditionally been out of the mainstream will start being accepting. People who are socially inept or overall bad actors will join not necessarily out of interest all the time but because it's accepting. Those people are also at risk for the alt right pipeline because it again gives them community
Being a Nazi furry doesn't seem to make sense but makes more sense if they where a lonely person and turned to two communities that let them in and got them hooked.
That's a very good explanation for this situation. I would not discount that some folks don't also know history I mean ww2 was 79 years ago. Not only is the history of it in some places not taught thoroughly but also there's an amount of distance that time creates probably making some think it wasn't so bad or that bad actors exploit.
Some people may use it just to be edge lords. The Hells Angels first adopted Nazi symbols as a way to freak out normies. They also would make out with each other and spit into each other's mouths to freak people out
That's true, you can never discount edge lord involvement. In this case I don't know enough about the furry community to really say if it's someone being attention-thirsty or not.

This is an extra weird self aware.
