I’ve met way too many people who think schools have litter boxes for furries, so nobody would question a dog playing basketball.
I mean, it doesn’t say a dog can’t play basketball in the rulebook, so why would anyone question it?
They seriously haven’t updated the rulebook? It’s been a quarter century!
It was shared on here that that story stemmed from the fact that classrooms are keeping kitty litter handy so kids can shit in a bucket during school shooter lock down incidents.
Tiny bit of truth ÷ deflection x thing I hate = popular lie
People insist it happens in the UK, too, and we don’t have school shootings, so wouldn’t have that source for the claim.
Misinformation isn’t constrained by geography. At least, not enough to keep stupid from spreading.
Same where I am in Canada. I’ve heard it from several different sources.
As a bonus it also deflects what would otherwise be a damning story about the gun violence problem.
Hol up, that’s a thing? Fuck, I almost wish it was just to appease the furries, the reality is so much more depressing.
I think that’s why the hate story works so well.
The way you create a narrative is by saying something that’s ninety percent true, omitting a bit of context, and sprinkling in one or two lies. That way, when it gets debunked, the firm believers will just say that it’s close enough to the truth.
I’m going to start spreading this.
