The idea sounds interesting on paper, but kinda scary in practice.. I'm not sure..
Things would get really messed up, I'd say.

As in anthro animals? I don't know if it'd be better, but it'd be more interesting probably.

Also probably wouldn't change much though, since they'd just become accepted like any other race. After awhile they'd stop being that unique, and no one would really care. The thing that makes furries being real "interesting" is entirely on the basis of them not already existing. Not existing is why it's fun to think about.
Them existing would negate the one thing making them special.

But at the end of the day, the world wouldn't be any worse off than it currently is so there's no harm in this hypothetical timeline.

Good heavens, no!

I’m sure religious and racially motivated genocide would lead them to extinction in no time here on Earth.

I have an idea. Mass reproduction?

Unless the furries win the war

That would be something…

It is at this point I ask:

Alright fellas how we feeling about cross-species reproduction with this hypothetical furry-timeline. Yay or Nay? Illegal or fair game?

Not only no, but hell no. I would consider it an uncanny form of bestiality. Furry to furry reproduction is totally acceptable though.

So long as everyone is in agreement and can make a conscious choice have at it I guess.

Alright, now lets get into some REAL shady territory.

Trans-species. If a man claims he is a fox does he now get dibs? Are animal and human restrooms separate?

So people would have another target to call subhuman and gather in camps? No, better not.

No, the man is a human, he will stay identified as a human unless we have a Changed situation where turning into a furry is possible. As for restrooms, separate between species.

Nah, could as well co-exist. There are enough toilet "types" already, but maybe the existing ones would prove to be a bit too small.

As for living spaces, if Chinatowns are a thing, why not make Flooftowns? Maybe let the tables turn and we see Hoomantowns in the future?
