Furries were invented in 1976.
And were originally associated with smutty comics/ advertisements! Basically animal pinups that were supposed to be edgy.
I'm not even a furry, but I really loved this video about it. (It's long form)
I had to explain this to a coworker 10-years ago and she thought I was fucking with her.
"Go Google 'furry', but do it on your own PC. Can't swear what you might see."
"OH MY GOD! YOU WEREN'T JOKING!!!"
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

Well if you are not a furry then you might want to change the "we're" to "were"

Fitz the Cat happened in '72.
