I dunno, to me, the whole thing read as a case of sour grapes. "I didn't get accepted to one of the most difficult fields of publishing to get into because my art is furry and the furry fandom can't stay out of the spotlight as weirdos." Don't get me wrong: it was well-written...though, truth be told, he's been editing it as more comments critiquing the post have been made; I wish I'd copied the original when it was posted.
Eh, I got my own bitching on the subject out of my system with this post. I wish him luck getting published, but I still don't think you should blame something that is completely out of your control -- and more than likely, always will be -- for your perceived lack of success. *shrug*
