Can someone please tell me what's the difference to furries and mascots?

This is just sad.. WE AREN'T DOPPELGANGERS WE JUST WANNA COSPLAY GUYS! 😭 also I genuinely live your fursona c:

I agree with ya, People don't understand furries cause they aren't furries. If you think everyone in one category is the same, remember, PEOPLE AREN'T ALL THE SAME.
