You must have been thinking a lot about this

@Ondsinet There's a lot of furries here.

Escapism expands your intellectual horizon tbh

<:what:382980756139409409>

It just means you don’t want to be around uncomfortable realities

Therefore it doesn’t

You trying to hide from realities you don’t agree with

how is being a furry escaping reality

You want to have sex with stuff that can't exist

Because you're playing a fictional character who is free from the issues you currently have to deal with

because you're a weird creature obsessed with retarded things

well by that logic playing any video game is escaping reality

Yep it's escapism by definition

if you ever see a hot girl in a club

and think about fucking her

you're a weak pussy escaping into your fantasy

<:GWseremePeepoThink:402867838580293643>

Yep pretty much

that's bullshit

There is nothing wrong with escapism imh

fantasising about something is not escaping reality

But that's the definition

no

Well ok not the definition

My bad

But they are related

At least gaming

But if you were to treat life like a game and go around in a costume, that would be a bit silly

yes but there is a difference between larping and just thinking "oh man this is so cool i wish i could do that"

"but i can't, oh well that sucks"

Yeah sure

I agree

@Deleted User🤠

escapism is basically "i don't care about reality i'm gonna do what i want and i don't give a shit"

being a furry is not that

While it's still just imagination I guess it's cool

playing video games is not that

otherwise "thinking about fucking furries" would be gucci

but "drawing furry art" would be bad

likewise "thinking about video games" would be fine
