I once made friends with someone on a furry discord server, they were seemingly very altruistic person, gave away quad digit numbers away to charitable causes, had a loving family, friends irl and online, wasn't a shut-in, paid attention to studying, alright grades.
Then I met their partner who happily shared some of the most conservative views I've heard, with me, unprompted. Makes it difficult to trust anyone.
