About
You're Going to a Conversion Therapy Camp Tomorrow is a trauma dump comic about a furry who runs away from home after being told by his parents that he has to attend conversion therapy camp. The webcomic was posted to X / Twitter by artist @Fenrirwolfen at the end of June 2024 and went viral shortly after. It inspired memes over the following weeks, including photoshops of an exploitable panel featuring a speech bubble that reads "you're going to conversion therapy camp tomorrow" over the main character's head, which was recaptioned. The comic is similar to other viral trauma dump comics turned into meme formats, including I Might Go Homeless? and Your Favorite Student.
