Autism. Autism explains everything in this thread. Sometimes there's a paraphilia involved, sometimes not. But it's always some sort of seriously debilitating lack of a theory of mind in these people that'd make them say "Wow, what I am doing is creepy and weird" but somehow, even if it does happen, we get "...NOPE MORE CRYSTAL FINGERS"

If anyone is interested, here's the artist. Seems fairly talented and not really furry at all despite being on furaffinity.

I'd say magnitude is a factor. The sheer scale of an event like the Holocaust makes it hard to grasp. Adding a pony is utterly tasteless, but it creates a mental link to something that these weirdos can grasp. Doesn't make it worthwhile or good, though. (Then again I've been properly diagnosed as  so maybe I'm totally off base)

The problem isn't needing some connection, even an unusual one, in order to better sympathize with some horrific event. Putting oneself in the shoes of a victim of a historical (and therefore likely abstract) tragedy isn't the easiest thing to do, so anything that can help somebody make that leap is good for them. When the connection comes in the form of a half-assed insertion of a cartoon character into a photo that was already specifically chosen because of its effectiveness for that exact purpose, however, it suggests an additional problem. The decision to publicly admit this fact without any trace of shame helps to narrow down the precise nature of the problem. Content:

Strike Witches weirds me out. Anthropomorphized fighter jets and fighter aces as young girls with animal tails. Something you wouldn't expect to write out.

See? This I can believe is a joke. I can actually laugh at this - unlike these two... "ITS DIMOND ITS DIMOND ITS DIMOND ITS DIMOND!!!!!!! this is Dimond tryin to be that wolf, Ammy." In response to people saying its Ammy.  This one's from a guy named Hectorthewolf, if a dog exists in fiction, Hector has most likely rendered it diabetic.  Here's a palette cleanser to get some of that extra-weight off your mind.  Plutonis posted:This gave me an idea of looking for japanese Ace Combat fanart yet the search yielded me... Strike Witches?

For some reason, browsing through this thread reminded me of the book Tailchaser's Song, which is basically like Redwall or Watership Down or what have you but with cats. As a fantasy-loving cat person, I really enjoyed this book as a child, and I assumed that it would make for some pretty horrific fanart, so I had a look around DA. This one's actually decent, but I love the grub-cat-thing in the bottom left.  Fat cat silhouette makes this one.  Have you even seen a cat?    Yep.  Reminds me of Dig Dug.  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!  Is that cat driving the dog like a tank?  That's fine, I wasn't planning on sleeping tonight anyway.  This is one (hair) metal cat!  Holy poo poo I love the fish.  Only found one de-furried version.  And mercifully, this was the closest I came to Rule 34.

But if somebody did some original artwork for them I'm sure they'd sell like hotcakes!

These aren't weird. They're amazing. If you know for a fact it's a joke, it stops being creepy and goes to funny. If you know for a fact.

I can't help but think that guy doing all of the horses in history photoshops was just doing it as a joke, if only because of this piece: With this description: quote:1936 – Twilight Sparkle being patted on the head by Luz Long after winning long jump at the 1936 Summer Olympics. Here are some things that aren't horses:  terrible pun  slightly less terrible pun  walter mug's gonna be in my dreams  There's a part two  hereOn the subject of terrible airplane anime:

The series has been around for several years, so there's really no way he DOESN'T know at this point. I've heard anecdotal evidence that he's cool with it, but even the fact that he HASN'T raised a stink by now is proof that he probably at least doesn't mind/care.
