He literally doesn’t have a personality other than being a dick-loving animal-fucking niggo. None.

The first 5 words on his twitter bio is “I’m a Black Queer Furry”.

First two words of his pinned tweet are “im gay”.

At the VGAs, he gets on a world stage with the biggest audience he’ll ever have, and what does he say? “I’m a gay black furry.”

Not only is it how he presents himself, it’s the only way he presents himself. ALL of his tweets are either about one of those three things, or about fighting games. He doesn’t talk about anything else because he literally has nothing to say. Furfaggotry and fighting games are literally his only two interests, so he tries to fill in the rest of his personality and identity with “im gay and black” so he has something to fall back on when people realize he’s actually an incredibly shallow person whose not particularly smart or interesting.

Furries gotta be gassed for the good of society.

Pretty much this. I wonder sometimes if he even knows what he's saying or what he actually believes. All of the catchphrases and tags that have become synonymous with him seem like nothing more than blurbs dropped for a community reaction. And since it's SonicFox, everyone will go with it.

I honestly doubt that, because after the Game Awards, he's now been exposed to more than just the FGC and the smaller subsection of the LGBT community and they are taking up word with him about it only to be considered homophobic for doing so.

It is not his niche popularity box anymore when he made that speech due to how viral it got, say if I'm a-logging if you want, but he's clearly got the eyes and ears of far more people than just beyond his original audience and just the FGC now.

You are a-logging, yeah. The amount of people you perceive as "taking up word with him" is grossly overstated due to some level of perception bias—just because your peers on KF, Twitter, /pol/ or whatever are angry about SonicFox's existence doesn't mean his "trigger phrase" reached as many people as you think.

I challenge you to ask random people in your life, like people at the grocer, your work, people in transit, etc. if they know who SonicFox is. With 151k followers, assuming all of them are from the US (for the sake of this estimate, which is very generous), 1 in every 2500 you'll meet is an active follower. Considering his engagement per tweet is roughly 1~10k per post (save for his pinned tweet), 3 in every 100000 people (being extremely generous) will be up to date on the controversy. If you live in a high metro area you might have more luck, but less if you don't selectively talk to people who look like they're in the know.

SonicFox is pretty well-known among furries and the FGC. Both of those niche groups are considerably tiny compared to actual people who have lives outside of these communities. Comparatively, he's a nobody, and the negative attention is only helping him to combat that.

> Assuming opinions outside of cyberspace matter to anybody on this planet anymore.

If only that were the case.

If you think I'm talking about people IRL, you have the wrong idea. I mean people in the sphere of LGBT, you might think it's small, but we are in a current generation of that group that is more in tune to use social media. Sonicfox is not just a representative of only furry and an obnoxious FGC player that actually has skill, those of LGBT social media regard him on that pedestal, you can't even deny that because LBGT people that actually don't like him, are telling him that he's a bad influence for the community and they are being called homophobic for it.

Sure he may be having his fun and that is fine, but it's not fine when people that decided to put you on top when the others in the group didn't agree to this, see that your causing more of a mess than some actual progression.

^ This

You can't say shit about him publicly or even remotely suggest he's doing this purely for the attention without being called out as a 'het', homophobe, or - if you're also homosexual as is my case ( apologies for the minor powerleveling I think ) - you're suddenly accused of everything under the sun involving internalized homophobia, racism, being privileged if you're a known white, or just "mad at him" for his success. If you try to elaborate and narrow your complaint down, they refuse to abandon the notion that some kind of prejudice or stigma is attached to your complaint. That anybody could have a problem with the Golden Child is something his true believers really can't comprehend.

Even though there's far more in both communities - furry especially - who really think he's giving them and gays a bad representation, but won't speak publicly for the obvious reasons. It's like how much more pathetic can this get? I've seen friendships torn apart arguing over this guy; hell, a friend of several years blocked me over calling him an e-whore just the other day.

Do you have a cite for that? That LGBT individuals are more likely to use social media? Because I've never heard that before, and can't really wrap my head around where that claim would come from.

Also, people on the internet are also people IRL. That's just reality.

There's no central "group", here. There's no Council of the Faggots deciding who and what is their elected representation—believe it or not, the "LGBT Community" expands beyond Twitter and bleeds into the IRL you want to avoid talking about.

If I've learned anything from the internet, it's that claims of losing friends over very minor grievances should be taken with the smallest grain of salt. The instigator almost always downplays it so that they look like the victim.

Sorry if I'm being skeptical, but "a known white"? You're telling me that, in a group with a disproportionate amount of white people (furries), you're being chastised for being white? Really?

This isn't the place to discuss race politics, but anti-white sentiment is huge among progressive types (most of which are white or white presenting). I'm surprised if you haven't noticed, since it fueled a good chunk of the 2016 US election.

That's what I meant, yes. White guilt is a prevalent factor and its empowered by the rise of any figure who can tick enough check boxes on his character sheet. Such as in this case. You especially can't criticize SF if you're white because then they just call you out on your privilege and shut the discussion down.

Given, of course, that I agree that race politics aren't for this discussion, I mentioned it as a minor addition - or should have specified as such - in the face of far more outrageous claims. Such as - again - "internalized homophobia" or apparently being a self hating gay for not being as loud about it as you possibly can.

Sorry again for the rant.

Actually on that part, I was at a con where a smash tournament did happen and he did try to fight in it. It was Sm4sh and he lost the first round against a guy that was pretty decent at the game, so yeah I could see that happen since Smash is a scene of players who have had years of experience behind their backs.

Smash Bros has quite the names and is NOT like any other fighter (it's a fighting game whether you hate it or not, just imagine it's like sumo wrestling) and it will take more than a few months to even play someone like Mario. Someone like me has K. Rool down pat since I've played since 64 when I was in kindergarten, and K. Rool is someone I desperately wanted (Thanks, Sakurai.) But SonicFox has constantly switched who he plays as, from Fox, to Wolf, to now Daisy, and he really doesn't know what he's talking about when he says Snake sucks (extremely on the contrary as he's a very scary character mid-far range, and has some powerful normal attacks)

Like I said before, if it's new and shiny, he'll be the best. Now that Mortal Kombat 11 has cooldowns and seems to be more of a patience game, I bet you he'll either suck super hard (and not in the way he'd want to) or he's going to attempt to learn it. If the latter, it'll be success or failure.

Please, tell us more about how you are the best at Super Smash Brothers.
 
So is he like the IRL manifestation of DSP's thoughts on gaming? Constantly thinking he's above everyone else because 'BUGGED HOMOPHOBIA MECHANICS"?

Homophobia has become a word that has lost its meaning like most words do on the internet. These labels have become stickers, since anyone can put them on anything and anyone, and they most likely will. It's like how 4chan made the words faggot, autism, cuck, boomer, and normie lose all power and reason behind it, except these words lose their meaning and power from sites like twitter.
