Why do some people have a extreme hate for Furries? (kbin.social)

I noticed that some people just have an extreme hatred for furries.
I have a friend and I would not call him a generally intolerant person at all, he knows I am homosexual and never cared unlike all other people I have ever told about that(around 6 people), but he has an extreme hatred for anything furry. Like on the level of "All furries should be killed" not the usual shit we can read on the internet.

I do not understand it, but there is really no way to get him to any not as extreme standpoint.

It’s more of a fetish

I would not say its a fetish, but a fetish can be attached to it. First and foremost its simply a liking for antro characters in e general sense.
And about sexuality, which is certainly the point where people show the most hate. Furries are into human based fanatsy characters with a wild mix of features, from nature inspired to completely made up and that with a great emphasis on the human base of the character.

Finally people involved generally seem to be social outcasts.

A great amount of us are aspergers, me as well. We are by nature social outcasts and the target of everyone that can somehow have power over us. So its neither getting worse nor better.
