Bingo. The furry/otherkin hate doesn't necessarily stem from a direct hatred of their beliefs, but rather the constant need for validation you see so often from those circles. It's never enough that they believe they're a fox or demon or whatnot (which is fine; everyone can believe what they want).

They have to reiterate to everyone that their belief is totally objective and as valid as that of members of the transgender community. Which is of course BS.

You are not some mystical being in human form; you are a human that liked the thought of said thing so much that you began to internalize it, and feed it, and over time, you bought the lie. The claims of phantom limbs certainly have the potential to be valid as a kind of manifestation of that belief. The human mind is a really powerful thing.
