During a nearly 20-minute speech filled with misinformation about transgender people and a fear-mongering call to bring back mental institutions as “a normal part of our society,” Tuberville claimed that furries “[tout] the fact that… many airline pilots, flight attendants, and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community.” He did not provide any evidence as to where this information came from.
Then the came for the Furries?
“Is he smart or is he… like me?”
Nah, Forrest was much smarter than that guy.
What even the fuck?
Are we gonna talk about all the bullshit the crazies were going on about when it came to “litter boxes in schools”?
These guys are just playing the hits now…the Sharia stuff, the red-baiting stuff, the transphobia, the furry stuff?
Been flying for over 30 years. This “furry” thing…isn’t a thing in flying. And even if it’s a thing in people’s off time, nobody is talking about it.
And who gives a damn what people do in their off time as long as they do their job right.
Furries are so much worse than $6.50/gal diesel. Glad he’s on top of this.
I had a job once that required considerable business travel. One time I had to show up somewhere on short notice, and hadn’t realized my staff had booked me at a large hotel holding a furry convention. It was all fine, they were gracious and funny, though I could have done without the couple in fursuits fucking in the corridor when I came in near midnight after a long workday. To their credit, they did give me a little wave and paused until I went past.
If it had been a convention of rightwingers, it would have been far, far worse. They tend to be mean drunks.
i’d rather have a furry in the cockpit than a republicant in public office.
What if it’s a Republican furry in office?
There already is. Why do you think Tommy is so vocal about it? Every accusation…
Naw, he’s just upset that his wife has a hairy back.
The fact these morons give any “brainpower” to thinking about furries is hilarious to me. I was probably in college when I first hear about furries, the extent of that thought was, “huh, what the fuck, oh well” because it ain’t my bag baby. Not worth ever thinking about again.
Fire them, too!

I am more scared of US Senators that are dumber than my cat.
He’s running for governor of alabama and needed something to get his name in the news so there’d be something to spin. He’s running against one of the prosecutors of the 16th Street Baptist Church Bombing, and that sound bite is what his media team thought would be sufficient for the people of alabama.
I’m a lot more worried about a geriatric who still goes by “Tommy”.
Let’s not address the actual issues with ATC funding, but go after a (probably) very small demographic that has nothing to do with the problems at hand. Dude went down a furry rabbit hole one night, got scared because he was excited, and invented something to convince himself he’s not interested.
Dude went down a furry rabbit hole one night,
Lana, are we still doing phrasing?
That rabbit hole’s name is Judy Hopps.
Zootopia 2 didn’t make $1.8 billion for no reason.
ACAB includes Judy Hopps.

What’d the baby do, beat up the placenta then arrest it on false charges?
lol, I do actually run across “AMAB”/“AFAB” rarely enough compared to “ACAB” that my brain read “All males are…wait, no no this is the other one” heh

It could honestly work either way. Dude is projecting HARD. (there’s another one)
Tommy boy in precisely two days time: Why are all these credit cards in my name and my own home internet is shut off? Woah, I dont even know what AWS is what’s this bill?
‘Meow, meow’: Pilots scolded after animal noises heard on air traffic control frequency April 15, 2026
The FAA said “non-essential conversations” are prohibited below 10,000 feet.
You can bark into the microphone at 10,000 feet. Good to know!
Pilots have been meowing and making annoying broadcasts for decades. Just to say that the chances it’s a part of furry culture are very slim. Truckers will also be annoying on the radio. It’s a matter of the call of the void and someone thinking they’re funny and thinking it doesn’t cause any real harm (and it largely doesn’t, but you never know who will turn the radio off or need to broadcast an emergency and can’t).
I got a raptor check one time and someone else replied with a very convincing dinosaur noise.
That or there really was a Velociraptor on the other end of the line.
Probably a Utahraptor in disguise.
“You shouldn’t care about money stealing pedophile incompetent republicans and the masked US-Gestapo, called ICE, kidnapping, raping and killing you poor people, be afraid about Furries and hate them for enjoying life.”
Always the same shit, just different scapegoats.
Fear mongering is effective, it’s why they quote mine to misrepresent people to make them look scary or put a bunch of actors dressed as pigs on an ad and say something like ‘John Politician licks murderers butt holes, would you vote for a person who agrees with all your policy positions and values but doesn’t praise fascists‽’
You can all-but-guarantee his browsing history is full of furry porn.
It’s weird to have something in common with a Republican Senator.
Okay, look, I was going to make some silly joke about that, but looking at your username YOU SHOULD NOT BE A FURRY WITH THAT USERNAME. ;-)
Personally, I’m more worried about the sheep fuckers being let in to the FBI now
It’s the ones who fuck dead seals, then get RFKJ to eat the rotting carcass, you need to watch out for those, they’re twisted bastards, every one of 'em.
And what is your problem with the Welsh exactly, sir?
Sir, the Scots would like a word with you - in private.
My impression is that generally in the UK, they give the Welsh that stereotype, whereas in the US, we attribute it to the Scots. So either works. :)
Welp… He threw down the gauntlet, furries - I think y’all should put him to the test. Show up at his next TV appearance in full garb, and see just how terrified he gets.
