The homo- sexual furry niche internet 00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:39.920 microcelebrity. 00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.210 Usually around this time of year I treat all 3,000 of my subscribers to a video of 00:00:44.210 --> 00:00:48.070 all the fun stuff I did at the Midwest Furfest furry convention. 00:00:48.070 --> 00:00:52.267 But I've been lacking motivation and feeling a slight desire to give a smooch 00:00:52.267 --> 00:00:53.267 to a speeding car. 00:00:53.267 --> 00:00:55.493 [Meme audio, child] Mommy, mama, a girl behind- 00:00:55.493 --> 00:00:58.250 [Crash earrape] 00:01:00.978 --> 00:01:04.840 So I've been away and I've been feeling like shit for a few different reasons. One 00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:07.506 is a bunch of bad shit that happened in my personal life. 00:01:07.506 --> 00:01:12.020 Two, is that thing that happened two months ago. That one. The "Republicans run 00:01:12.020 --> 00:01:15.900 the country now" one. And two segues me into three, which is that now that 00:01:15.900 --> 00:01:20.631 Republicans have claimed sweeping victory over "woke libtards" like myself, I 00:01:20.631 --> 00:01:24.201 thought about quitting the whole furry YouTube thing. I kind of fucking hate 00:01:24.201 --> 00:01:24.920 being here now. 00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:25.892 [Man] I HATE BEING A 00:01:25.892 --> 00:01:27.621 [Dubstep music] 00:01:27.621 --> 00:01:31.429 Let me explain. I spent the past two and a half years on this website documenting 00:01:31.429 --> 00:01:33.639 my experiences in the furry community 00:01:33.639 --> 00:01:37.300 and also making fun of Republicans for feeling way too threatened by the furry 00:01:37.300 --> 00:01:40.850 community and the LGBT people who largely occupy it. 00:01:40.850 --> 00:01:44.412 Because I think they're pretty harmless, even if like me they're strange. 00:01:44.412 --> 00:01:48.643 But now that Republicans won not just the Congress, the Senate, and the presidency, 00:01:48.643 --> 00:01:52.700 but also for the first time since 2004, the popular vote, lots of Republicans are NOTE Paragraph 00:01:52.700 --> 00:01:53.736 saying 00:01:53.736 --> 00:01:57.016 [Piers Morgan] So you want to admit you were completely and hopelessly 00:01:57.016 --> 00:01:57.855 wrong about this? 00:01:57.855 --> 00:02:01.908 I spent every weekend of my summer and fall knocking on doors for Kamala Harris 00:02:01.908 --> 00:02:05.740 not because I'm president of her fan club but because I felt like the other 00:02:05.740 --> 00:02:09.448 candidate and his friendly gaggle of congressmen, senators, pundits and 00:02:09.448 --> 00:02:12.651 influencers wanted to restrict the rights of people like myself. 00:02:12.651 --> 00:02:16.601 [Charlie Kirk] It's in Leviticus 18, is that "thou shalt lay with another man, 00:02:16.601 --> 00:02:17.851 shall be stoned to death." 00:02:17.851 --> 00:02:21.423 [Nikki Haley] I actually said his "Don't say gay" bill didn't go far enough. 00:02:21.423 --> 00:02:24.930 [Mark Robinson] Transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth, and yes, 00:02:24.930 --> 00:02:26.260 I called it filth! 00:02:26.260 --> 00:02:29.165 [Dana Loesch] You know, sometimes bullying is not a bad thing. 00:02:29.165 --> 00:02:32.595 [Pete Buttigieg] There's also more personal rights. My right to have this 00:02:32.595 --> 00:02:36.315 ring on my finger, that I feel are much more secure if she's in charge, than if 00:02:36.315 --> 00:02:37.035 he's in charge. 00:02:37.035 --> 00:02:40.174 [Woman] And the evidence you have of Donald Trump being against gay 00:02:40.174 --> 00:02:43.704 marriage or wanting to roll back protections for gay folks to be married is 00:02:43.704 --> 00:02:44.424 what, exactly? 00:02:44.424 --> 00:02:47.906 [Buttigieg] The evidence is that he ran for president with a platform that 00:02:47.906 --> 00:02:51.569 specifically said in black and white that they were against marriage equality. 00:02:51.569 --> 00:02:55.048 [Georgio] So when I campaigned every weekend I urged people to vote for my 00:02:55.048 --> 00:02:58.758 freedoms as a gay man, and the freedoms of people like me, and we fucking lost. 00:02:58.758 --> 00:03:02.539 And the Democrats' sweeping defeat got me wondering: did the Republicans have a 00:03:02.539 --> 00:03:06.119 point this whole time? Was the past two and a half years of my life a waste? 00:03:06.119 --> 00:03:09.751 Is the furry community something that I should actually be a part of? Maybe I 00:03:09.751 --> 00:03:13.676 should be embarrassed of the fact that I'm here. Maybe we as a community are wrong. 00:03:13.676 --> 00:03:18.521 So I'm going to examine all of the points that the GOP successfully made about 00:03:18.521 --> 00:03:22.408 people like us over the past election cycle and I'm gonna tell you why I 00:03:22.408 --> 00:03:24.269 considered leaving the furry community. 00:03:24.269 --> 00:03:29.100 [Georgio] Ah, it is a beautiful, chilly day in Rosemont, Illinois. 00:03:29.100 --> 00:03:33.643 [Asmongold] I view this in like the same way, as like a person wearing like BSDM 00:03:33.643 --> 00:03:35.504 gear to like a public event. 00:03:35.504 --> 00:03:39.411 [Megyn Kelly] It has heavy sexual overtones, it has a heavy sexual bent. 00:03:39.411 --> 00:03:40.801 [Georgio] Hear me out. 00:03:40.801 --> 00:03:41.510 Come on. 00:03:41.600 --> 00:03:42.312 Come on. 00:03:42.312 --> 00:03:45.596 Now listen, when I go to furry conventions, I look at it as good clean 00:03:45.596 --> 00:03:46.300 fun. 00:03:46.300 --> 00:03:49.915 [Jesse Watters] They like to go to conventions, kind of like a Comicon except 00:03:49.915 --> 00:03:52.055 everyone's dressed up like the Philly Fanatic. 00:03:52.055 --> 00:03:55.962 [Georgio] I used to work for the Guinness book of world records, they'd fire me for 00:03:55.962 --> 00:03:57.929 trying to put you in for thiccest thighs. 00:03:57.929 --> 00:03:59.687 [Fursuiter] You right about that one. 00:03:59.687 --> 00:04:04.054 We're all walking around in costumes, playing video games, going to panels and 00:04:04.054 --> 00:04:06.937 saying hi to one another. Oh shit! We got spins! [laugh] 00:04:06.937 --> 00:04:11.880 But that is not what Republicans see. Republicans are very focused on furries' 00:04:11.880 --> 00:04:14.091 sex lives. And usually I find that weird. 00:04:14.091 --> 00:04:17.714 [Megyn Kelly] It has heavy sexual overtones, it has a heavy sexual bent in 00:04:17.714 --> 00:04:18.754 its history. 00:04:18.754 --> 00:04:22.366 [Georgio] If most everything that happens in the convention space is family- 00:04:22.366 --> 00:04:26.053 friendly, why do you give a shit what I and other adults do in the hotel rooms 00:04:26.053 --> 00:04:30.100 after the convention? But you see to many Republicans, there is no casual family- 00:04:30.100 --> 00:04:32.072 line:1 friendly aspect to this. 00:04:32.072 --> 00:04:35.811 [Asmongold] This is my opinion, I think being a furry is a sexual fetish. 00:04:35.811 --> 00:04:40.046 [Georgio] Many Republicans see this as a fetish and nothing more and sometimes I 00:04:40.046 --> 00:04:41.680 feel like they might have a point. 00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:45.458 So here's the thing about my YouTube page, is that it's actually totally fucking 00:04:45.458 --> 00:04:49.757 boring and nobody watches it unless I show somebody, a big man with big muscles. 00:04:49.757 --> 00:04:52.680 May I give the people some fan service and touch your boobies? 00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:54.070 line:1 [Caine Nines] Yeah, go ahead. 00:04:54.070 --> 00:04:57.127 Ah, sweet. There you go folks. This is what you came for. 00:04:57.127 --> 00:05:00.102 Thank you so much, Canine Nines [sic]. Take care, man. 00:05:00.102 --> 00:05:04.053 When I talk about politics or something that I care about, nobody fucking watches 00:05:04.053 --> 00:05:08.027 but when I talk about sex or put soft-core pornography in my thumbnail, you people 00:05:08.027 --> 00:05:11.795 click on it. Two of the best performing videos on my YouTube page are the ones 00:05:11.795 --> 00:05:15.481 with Fluke's ass and Kyle the Tiger's tits in my thumbnails. And that got me 00:05:15.481 --> 00:05:20.552 wondering, maybe we all do really only care about sex. Maybe this is just a giant 00:05:20.552 --> 00:05:24.369 fetish disguised as a hobby like Republicans claim it is. So I looked up 00:05:24.369 --> 00:05:28.365 the content that my analogues have posted. Kyle gets thousands of likes on his tweets 00:05:28.365 --> 00:05:32.591 until he stops posting nudes and starts wishing his boyfriend a happy birthday. 00:05:32.591 --> 00:05:34.425 line:1 Then y'all tune the fuck out. 00:05:34.425 --> 00:05:38.373 line:1 Don't even get me started on Manny's ASMR channel and the number of foot licking, 00:05:38.373 --> 00:05:42.227 line:1 ball sniffing, boyfriend kissing videos that he's made to keep you fucking weirdos 00:05:42.227 --> 00:05:46.078 line:1 satiated, and all of the normal videos that by comparison you people didn't give 00:05:46.078 --> 00:05:46.870 line:1 a shit about. 00:05:46.870 --> 00:05:50.488 line:1 And what about Soren? Well, nobody's fucking watching him. Sorry to throw you 00:05:50.488 --> 00:05:54.386 line:1 under the bus there buddy but hey, maybe if you follow my lead and put some porn in 00:05:54.386 --> 00:05:58.024 line:1 your thumbnail, you'll get some more views. And take it from me and everybody 00:05:58.024 --> 00:06:00.167 line:1 else in the community, it works unfortunately. 00:06:00.167 --> 00:06:04.124 Maybe we should feel bad, not for the fact that all of us including me can't seem to 00:06:04.124 --> 00:06:08.189 muster up content that isn't pornographic clickbait, but for blatantly objectifying 00:06:08.189 --> 00:06:09.107 one another. 00:06:09.107 --> 00:06:13.377 I'm even responsible for it. I spent 4 whole days at Midwest Furfest and half of 00:06:13.377 --> 00:06:17.578 the footage I have on my dumbass fucking cellphone is me going up to fursuiters and 00:06:17.578 --> 00:06:19.771 asking to touch their tits, muscles or bellies. 00:06:19.771 --> 00:06:24.360 Ayo, look who the fuck we found! It's Hugs and Snugs. Yo, sir, sir. 00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:25.180 [Snugs] Yes. 00:06:25.180 --> 00:06:27.003 [Georgio] Can I have a hug and a snug? 00:06:27.003 --> 00:06:27.859 [Snugs] Of course! 00:06:27.859 --> 00:06:29.870 line:1 Alright, audience, into the titties we go. 00:06:29.870 --> 00:06:32.786 [Piano music] 00:06:33.985 --> 00:06:37.675 line:1 [Lagovirt] There are countless minors using this site to watch whatever videos 00:06:37.675 --> 00:06:38.379 line:1 they please. 00:06:38.379 --> 00:06:42.512 [Asmongold] I view this in the same way as like a person wearing like BDSM gear to 00:06:42.512 --> 00:06:43.992 like a public event. 00:06:43.992 --> 00:06:47.998 [Lagovirt] One thing age restriction can't keep under wraps is the video's thumbnail. 00:06:47.998 --> 00:06:51.895 [Asmongold] You know, you have kids that look into this and they think it's cute or 00:06:51.895 --> 00:06:56.700 funny and there's a word for that, it rhymes with "rooming". Oh man, what could 00:06:56.700 --> 00:06:57.644 it possibly be? 00:06:57.644 --> 00:07:01.311 [Georgio] Now it's one thing for our community to just be a cesspool of porno- 00:07:01.311 --> 00:07:05.197 line:1 graphic clickbait videos and images, but it's another for that kind of content to 00:07:05.197 --> 00:07:07.809 be made publicly available to anybody on the internet. 00:07:07.809 --> 00:07:11.714 line:1 Recently I received a number of comments like these and immediately I was reminded 00:07:11.714 --> 00:07:15.680 line:1 of all the weird kinky shit that I saw on YouTube when my parents would let me 00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:17.358 line:1 borrow their work laptops. 00:07:17.358 --> 00:07:21.070 When I was 6 years old, I would go on YouTube looking for videos about the next 00:07:21.070 --> 00:07:25.440 Mario Kart game and then somehow I would stumble upon foot fetish videos, fat guys 00:07:25.440 --> 00:07:27.953 playing with their bellies, and Birdo eating Yoshi. 00:07:27.953 --> 00:07:33.003 Republicans are correct when they observe the stuff that happens in our community 00:07:33.003 --> 00:07:35.638 and our conventions and describe them as weird. 00:07:35.638 --> 00:07:39.054 Do you think I ever wanted to be into any of this weird fucking shit? 00:07:39.054 --> 00:07:43.387 [Bo Burnham] I don't know about you guys, but um, I've been thinking recently that 00:07:43.387 --> 00:07:53.881 you know, maybe allowing giant digital media corporations to exploit the 00:07:53.881 --> 00:07:59.103 neurochemical drama of our children for profit 00:07:59.103 --> 00:08:01.103 [Earrape bass] 00:08:01.103 --> 00:08:05.809 [Burnham] You know, maybe that was, uh, a bad call. 00:08:05.809 --> 00:08:09.526 [Georgio] Hey Wiggleon, can I touch your belly? Yaaay! Yay! 00:08:09.526 --> 00:08:10.273 [Tires screech] 00:08:10.273 --> 00:08:14.976 [DnB music plays] 00:08:16.755 --> 00:08:20.185 [Georgio] There is not a doubt in my mind that things would've turned out 00:08:20.185 --> 00:08:23.938 differently for me if I never saw this. And if me seeing softcore pornography at 00:08:23.938 --> 00:08:28.074 a young age was enough to fuck up my brain chemistry and land me here, then why on 00:08:28.074 --> 00:08:32.632 line:1 earth do I and people like me think it's okay to upload stuff like this to the 00:08:32.632 --> 00:08:36.977 internet when we know that there are kids on iPads on the other side of the screen? 00:08:36.977 --> 00:08:41.227 I never wanted to end up like this. Maybe those people who put their fetish content 00:08:41.227 --> 00:08:45.034 on the internet should've thought before they clicked upload all the way back in 00:08:45.034 --> 00:08:45.744 2007. 00:08:45.744 --> 00:08:51.115 Won't we feel weird or guilty when we're in our 40s and the next generation of 20 00:08:51.115 --> 00:08:54.518 year old furry YouTubers say that they used to watch our content? 00:08:54.518 --> 00:08:56.613 line:1 I already feel fucking weird about it 00:08:56.613 --> 00:09:02.221 Come on man, this is the issue that the right is like crusading on? 00:09:02.221 --> 00:09:05.893 "Gotta crack down on these evil furries, bro!" 00:09:05.893 --> 00:09:07.563 Go give people healthcare. 00:09:07.563 --> 00:09:11.329 Call it what it is, it's hatred. This is a movement based on hatred. 00:09:11.329 --> 00:09:15.536 There are days including the days that I spent at Midwest Furfest where I can't 00:09:15.536 --> 00:09:19.537 help but feel embarrassed to be here anymore because I know that even if I want 00:09:19.537 --> 00:09:24.319 to see the good in this community, plenty of people on the outside, perhaps a 00:09:24.319 --> 00:09:28.745 majority as evidenced by the last election, see us as sex-obsessed 00:09:28.745 --> 00:09:33.490 freakshows and fetishists with no regard for public decency and no capacity for 00:09:33.490 --> 00:09:34.650 self-censorship. 00:09:34.650 --> 00:09:40.148 [Georgio] And so just as a head's up to my viewers, we're going to go into the adult 00:09:40.148 --> 00:09:45.850 annex and there is a sex game where you put on a virtual reality headset and then 00:09:45.850 --> 00:09:50.290 you have e-sex with digital characters. So that's what I'm going for. 00:09:50.290 --> 00:09:54.604 ["Whenever you want it" plays] 00:10:00.035 --> 00:10:04.035 And yet none of that is the reason I considered quitting. 00:10:04.035 --> 00:10:08.285 Because here's the thing, every bit of fearmongering and criticism that the 00:10:08.285 --> 00:10:13.424 Republicans have for LGBT people and furries over the past couple of years is 00:10:13.424 --> 00:10:18.248 something that has an obvious solution and something that they have been equally 00:10:18.248 --> 00:10:19.053 guilty of. 00:10:19.053 --> 00:10:23.520 "You people are too sexual!" cries Megyn Kelly on SiriusXM radio. 00:10:23.520 --> 00:10:26.568 Well, sure we are. I'll be the first to admit it. 00:10:26.568 --> 00:10:29.339 [Georgio] Alright, get a load of this.

Cunt for lunch. Cunt for dinner. 00:10:39.408 --> 00:10:42.829 [Georgio] And if you have a problem with that don't fucking go to a furry 00:10:42.829 --> 00:10:47.101 convention. Don't look at my content. Let me look at Kyle's man titties and Manny's 00:10:47.101 --> 00:10:48.521 paws in peace. Cunt. 00:10:48.521 --> 00:10:52.221 And while we're at it why don't we talk about some of the comments made by our 00:10:52.221 --> 00:10:54.001 very family-friendly president-elect? 00:10:54.001 --> 00:10:55.332 [Trump] You can do anything. 00:10:55.332 --> 00:10:56.529 [Bush] Whatever you want. 00:10:56.529 --> 00:10:58.050 [Trump] Grab 'em by the [bleep]. 00:10:58.050 --> 00:11:01.148 I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter perhaps I'd be dating her. 00:11:01.148 --> 00:11:01.958 [Ivanka] Stop it. 00:11:01.958 --> 00:11:04.961 [Georgio] Apparently there is nothing overly sexual about that. 00:11:04.961 --> 00:11:08.670 "What if kids see you on the internet?" says Asmongold. "Isn't that the same as 00:11:08.670 --> 00:11:12.452 grooming? Aren't you introducing them to a fetish? Shouldn't you stay out of the 00:11:12.452 --> 00:11:16.651 public sphere?" Well gee whiz, after the runner-ups for the Republican presidential 00:11:16.651 --> 00:11:21.026 nomination spent so much time about the negative effects of social media and 00:11:21.026 --> 00:11:26.029 banning TikTok, I would think you would know not to give kids unsupervised access 00:11:26.029 --> 00:11:28.980 to social media since it's so harmful, wouldn't you? 00:11:28.980 --> 00:11:32.798 And sorry to throw you under the bus, mom and dad, but maybe it was a bad idea to 00:11:32.798 --> 00:11:36.375 give me the password to your work computers. And while we're on the topic of 00:11:36.375 --> 00:11:39.948 grooming, do we want to talk about how Jeffrey Epstein, the guy charged with 00:11:39.948 --> 00:11:43.923 running a sex ring of teenage girls described himself as your president's 00:11:43.923 --> 00:11:48.055 closest friend? Or do we want to talk about how your guy nominated Matt Gaetz 00:11:48.055 --> 00:11:52.018 for attorney general - the same Matt Gaetz who has a house ethics report detailing 00:11:52.018 --> 00:11:54.163 how he paid a teenage girl for sex? 00:11:54.163 --> 00:11:58.540 Now I didn't think of quitting because of anything these dick riders say. The actual 00:11:58.540 --> 00:12:02.387 reason that I considered quitting is because this community is so valuable that 00:12:02.387 --> 00:12:04.413 I frankly don't think I deserve to be here. 00:12:04.413 --> 00:12:07.472 ["XXL Freshman Cypher" plays] 00:12:07.472 --> 00:12:11.559 [Young Georgio] Hi skinnies, how are you? Welcome back to this extreme channel 00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:15.409 surfing thing. I'm going to do something different because OBS doesn't really like 00:12:15.409 --> 00:12:16.368 my computer anymore. 00:12:16.368 --> 00:12:20.831 [Ambient music] 00:12:38.773 --> 00:12:42.303 [Georgio] When I was in high school it took one year of me hearing the word 00:12:42.303 --> 00:12:46.172 "faggot" for me to feel terrified of being of being openly gay, date a girl as a 00:12:46.172 --> 00:12:50.359 cover up, and pretend to be a typical homophobic straight guy teenager to avoid 00:12:50.359 --> 00:12:54.727 getting bullied. When my peers made fun of the one openly gay kid in my Spanish 00:12:54.727 --> 00:12:59.288 class, when they bullied kids with autism, when they made sexist and racist comments, 00:12:59.288 --> 00:13:03.388 when they shared pictures wearing a tail with their friends and referred to them as 00:13:03.388 --> 00:13:07.565 a "dog fucker", I either turned a blind eye to it or I joined in. 00:13:07.565 --> 00:13:11.725 And I can't help but see a lot of that behavior reflected in the GOP's political 00:13:11.725 --> 00:13:12.476 discourse. 00:13:12.476 --> 00:13:16.971 I chose to fit in with hateful people like the ones that now run our country, and 00:13:16.971 --> 00:13:21.056 even back then the people I was friends with came from households that supported 00:13:21.056 --> 00:13:23.964 Donald Trump for the 2016 Republican primary.
