* The ''[[Order of the Stick]]'' prequel book ''[[Start of Darkness]]'' does this, with humans killing off goblins and other races solely for being classified as evil, even if they weren't doing anything. However, the goblin Redcloak, whose village was slaughtered by human paladins and went on to become [[The Dragon]], shows himself to be just as bad in his own way, with his hypocrisy and less-than-balanced view of humans being brought up both in the book and in the on line strips.

** Tsukiko uses this as justification for her necrophilia in [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0700.html this strip]. Humans are the antithesis of undead. But Humans Are the Real Monsters. Therefore, [[You Fail Logic Forever|undead must be good.]]

* Many (to most) furry-themed webcomics with humans in them (or even in the history of the world-setting) portray humans as essentially [[Exclusively Evil]], with the furry characters suffering persecution such as slavery, hate crimes, being relegated to the status of animals despite clearly being sentient and capable of speech, etc. at the hands of said humans. There may be one or two humans that aren't cruel, bloodthirsty, rapacious [[Complete Monster|complete monsters]] as a sort of token attempt at fixing the [[Broken Aesop]], but not always. Of course, it's rather easy to do with furry comics which are a ''prime'' method of using the [[Fantastic Racism]] theme.
