Podcast Summary: Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey
Episode: 1269 | How "Furry" P*rn Leads to Political Violence
Date: November 19, 2025
Host: Allie Beth Stuckey (Blaze Podcast Network)
Theme: Exploring the links between extreme sexual subcultures (especially “furries”) and political violence, with a strong theological lens from a Christian conservative viewpoint.
Episode Overview
Allie Beth Stuckey analyzes recent evidence connecting radical sexual subcultures—including furry pornography, transgender ideology, and extreme fetishes—to episodes of political violence, most notably the 2024 assassination attempt on Donald Trump and the killing of Charlie Kirk. Drawing on news reports, studies, and Christian theology, Stuckey argues this convergence isn’t coincidental and urges Christians to understand and confront the spiritual and societal dangers these trends pose.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Transgenderism: Evolution of Perspective
- Stuckey initially believed that most transgender people suffered genuine gender dysphoria, as classically defined (“insistent, persistent, and consistent” from early life).
- “I no longer believe that most people today who say that they’re the opposite sex have true gender dysphoria.” (09:20)
- Rapid onset gender dysphoria now seen in teen girls is attributed more to social contagion than innate identity (citing Abigail Shrier’s "Irreversible Damage" and Lisa Littman’s research).
- For boys and men, Stuckey argues the shift toward transgenderism is less about identity confusion and more about extreme pornography-induced fetishes like sissification, humiliation, and submission.
2. The Algorithmic Porn Pipeline
- Stuckey claims online porn platforms increasingly “push” users toward ever more extreme, deviant material, including gender-bending content.
- “There is now a very real algorithmic pipeline via Pornhub and other porn sites that push young men to seek more and more exciting dopamine hits.” (13:20)
- She discusses the fetishistic aspect, citing Genevieve Gluck’s research on porn and the feminization/submission urge among men.
- Key assertion: Men invading women’s spaces under transgender claims aren’t motivated by genuine gender dysphoria, but by perversion and fetish.
3. Furry Fandom and Bestiality
- Stuckey links the ‘furry’ subculture (anthropomorphic animal costumes/art, often with sexual content) to bestiality and, in some cases, pedophilia.
- “A 2019 study by Northwestern University… found that 99% reported some degree of sexual motivation for being furry. So this is bestiality.” (53:40)
- She highlights research showing “significant crossover” between furry, pedophilia, and LGBTQ identification (NIH, Religion News Service).
- Describes the roots of furry culture in underground comics/animated films but asserts it has become a gateway to radicalization.
4. Violence and Radicalization
- Points to media reports that the would-be Trump assassin and Charlie Kirk’s killer both had deep obsessions with gender fluidity and furry/sexualized content.
- New data (NY Post, Time Magazine, Miranda Devine) highlight these suspects’ online footprints on DeviantArt featuring gender-bending, violent, and fetish artwork—alongside threats and advocacy of political violence.
- “It is not a coincidence that both of these men… were also allegedly addicted to this kind of pornography…” (27:50)
- Stuckey notes that in multiple recent high-profile shootings, suspects identified as transgender or non-binary—an overrepresentation she calls "disproportionate and a problem" (1:18:06).
5. Spiritual and Theological Commentary
- Draws direct parallels between non-binary identities (“they/them pronouns”) and biblical accounts of demonic possession (Mark 5:1-13).
- “I am saying unapologetically that it is demonic, that you cannot be a they, that you cannot be a them, that you cannot be a we. Subverting reality is demonic.” (35:37)
- Notes demonic symbols frequently blend animal/human and male/female characteristics, likening contemporary gender ideology and furry subcultures to ancient spiritual perversion.
- Cites Romans 1 and various Old Testament prohibitions to argue sexual deviancy leads to “all other kinds of sin,” societal chaos, and violence.
6. Social Contagion and Online Radicalization
- Argues that online platforms and communities exacerbate mental instability, pushing vulnerable individuals further into fantasy and radical ideologies.
- “You go to these dark corners of the Internet, you get affirmation, you become obsessed… and then that manifests in real life.” (1:00:30)
- Stresses the need to restore social stigma and shame as protective factors against the normalization of harmful behaviors.
7. Pornography and Mental Health
- Cites numerous studies linking pornography consumption with aggression, poor mental health, and poor long-term outcomes—especially in men.
- “A 2018 paper… reported that 88% of scenes in popular pornographic videos depict physical aggression… 94% against women.” (1:10:18)
- Draws a connection between high rates of mental health problems, violence, and those who identify as transgender and/or pursue surgical transition, arguing pornography addiction is a persistent underlying issue.
8. Call to Christian Action
- Stuckey urges Christians to:
- Speak plainly against sexual immorality.
- Return to biblical clarity: “If your empathy is leading you… to affirming sin… what has your empathy become? It has become toxic.” (1:27:50)
- Love their neighbor not by affirming delusion, but by advocating for truth and societal health.
- Restore social stigma towards behaviors that are “sterilizing and destabilizing for society” (1:02:25).
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
-
On empathy and clarity:
“The people as image bearers of God may deserve our compassion and our desire for their repentance, but the issue does not deserve nuance. It deserves courage.” — Allie Beth Stuckey (22:44) -
On demonic influences & pronouns:
“I am saying unapologetically that it is demonic, that you cannot be a they, that you cannot be a them, that you cannot be a we. Subverting reality is demonic. Denying biological truth is demonic. Satan loves it. Why? Because he is the father of lies.” (35:37) -
On the origins of furry subculture:
“Furries realized that via the computer, you could connect with people, you could share companionship… You don’t need companionship. Actually, what we need is for these people to have no way to find each other. That’s what we need, okay?” (1:00:00) -
On slippery slopes:
“The slippery slope when it comes to the sexual revolution is totally undefeated. It’s not a fallacy, it is a true principle. Because again, sin begets sin and it creates more and more delusion.” (1:11:53) -
The biblical charge:
“If your empathy is leading you in the direction of affirming sin or supporting destructive policies, what has your empathy become? It has become toxic. Christians are called to the truth in love. 1 Corinthians 13:6—we never rejoice in wrongdoing. Love doesn’t rejoice in wrongdoing, doesn’t rejoice in sin. It rejoices with the truth.” (1:27:50)

Summary Takeaways
- Stuckey argues that what is often labeled as “transgenderism” or “alternative sexuality” is often rooted in pornography addiction, extreme sexual fetishes, and a breakdown of social/institutional boundaries.
- Radical subcultures like “furry” fandom are not value-neutral; they contribute, via social contagion and online radicalization, to mental instability and violence.

- Christians are called to discernment, loving truth-telling, and upholding biblical norms for the good of both individuals and society.
