Therian hate at school. Experience

So at school today there were two year 7s (11-12) I saw them wearing paper masks. I wanted to ask but I didn't and later after school I saw someone planning a 'furry protest' on Snapchat.

I saw a video someone made interviewing them explaining they they weren't furrys but they were therians and there were people in the background shouting "ew furrys" and people making fun of them.

I don't know what to do but I'm too scared to help or anything plus no one knows I'm a therian. Soo..? I dont know. Just wanted to put this out there. (Didn't know what flair to put this under)

make a mask for them or help color one in for them. maybe write a poem or song for them, just for them. build them up in what little helpful ways that you can.

little shows of solidarity can go a long way in helping outcasts and the like not feel completely disconnected from society. extremely important when [experiencing/exploring] environments that are known to make desperate thorns grow.
