Pepper Coyote isn’t a good person and that photo sucks but it bothers me more that a HBO production put random photos of people in their documentary without researching them first

The idea that "it puts us all in a bad light" is an unfortunately common refrain anytime it's pointed out that an awful person doing awful things happens to be a furry, like that guy who tried to eat another guy's dong off, and it always strikes me as a facile argument.
"It makes us a punchline for the media" is also the common follow-up statement I've seen for the past 20 years. In 20 years, the furry community's collective sense of perpetual victimhood has never changed, and that's unfortunate.

The furry community is and always has been a vertical slice of life. In my opinion, it's more dangerous to shove our heads in the sand and pretend the furry community is just the cast of R.E.M.'s "Shiny Happy People" than to acknowledge the presence of bad actors.

It's that lack of acknowledgement that shitty people can be and are part of the community that enables them to even be part of it. PepperCoyote is just a younger CigarSkunk, there's nothing new under the sun. What's new is for a change, he's getting publicly excoriated.
