Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 23/06/2026It happened earlier, when Biden pulled us out of Afghanistan. He really wasn't supposed to do that. Ending that war had something like 90% approval at the time and the media turned it into a liability for him. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Much simpler explanation: Democrats are a right wing party, and "electabilty" was always just an excuse. How do you force right wing policy onto a left wing voting base? Convince them you have no choice. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 15/06/2026lmao! Imagine, a Democrat who wants to beat Republicans so badly they're willing to engage in dirty tricks, like running a guy with the same name as their opponent, in order to win. Is there a precedent for this? Find whoever is responsible and put them in charge of the DNC. 000

Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 09/05/2026Democrats love confusing working class aesthetics for working class politics. 10 years ago they were all wearing plaid shirts & carhartt vests. Seems like the new model is glowering, reactionary white men who dress like slobs. Same grift, different year 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Very excited about this. With corporate news gone for good, it's been tough trying to recreate a decent news feed using indie media, due to the # of sites and subscriptions. This looks like it will aggregate a bunch of outlets under one subscription in a way that pays creators fairly. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Democrats are doing that thing again where they try to outlaw something which is already illegal, helping Trump by creating an impression that his actions had been legal before their attempted "fix". But even that hollow, symbolic and counter-productive action was too much for traitor boy here. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Ending the Afghanistan war had something like 90% approval & they were somehow able to turn that into a liability for Biden. IDK if mass media has that kind of juice anymore though. They've torched so much of their capacity & credibility since then. 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 21/01/2026How many of the masked gangs being identified as "ICE" by seemingly everyone are actually white nationalists going around doing lynchings? How many are with organized crime? We don't know. All you need is an SUV, some military gear and a few dudes to start your own human trafficking ring. 000

Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 08/01/2026The contrast between how MN and IL officials responded to the same situation is so disheartening as an IL resident.

Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 13/09/2025If the general public is going to stay informed as the US descends into fascist chaos and state-sanctioned terrorism, it will be because independent journalists risked their lives and their freedoms to bring us the truth.

Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 13/09/2025I for one think it's a good thing that Charlie Kirk, a fascist liar and inciter of violence and terrorism, is dead, so now he can't do that stuff anymore In the fascist/centrist response to his killing, you see them building the rhetorical architecture to label anti-fascism as a terrorist ideology 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Hannity should have simply explained to the farmer how much more profit his bankrupt farm will make after it's bought out by a global agribusiness conglomerate for pennies on the dollar. As a conservative, he should stop complaining and be happy to sacrifice for the greater good (shareholders). 020
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 06/09/2025Responding to a credible threat of terrorist violence against her own constituents, Tammy Duckworth accuses Trump of "stolen valor" because he is dressed as an army commander in the post. An embarrassing failure to meet the moment from my Senator. 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 06/09/2025Donors pay both parties, but not so they always come out on top no matter who wins an election. They pay Democrats to lose, and they pay Republicans to win. 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 04/09/2025More and more people are saying it: Democrats are bad actors who literally want Republicans to win. Wouldn't it be nice to have a real opposition party? We can start building one in the next primaries! 000

Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 27/08/2025Was surprised to see my congressman, @quigley.house.gov among the group pushing this. Congressman, any comment on this call from your organization to "find a middle ground" on immigration by "increasing financial and operational support" to the US gestapo? Are we really still doing this? 051
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 11/08/2025My all-time favorite "distraction" was when Trump accused Barack Obama of treason, and Obama himself dismissed this, a credible call for HIS OWN EXECUTION, as "just a distraction" Pretty sure he'd still be saying "it's a distraction" and calling for bipartisanship on his way to the firing squad. 130
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 09/08/2025It's interesting how freely companies admit they've been eating tariffs, i.e. deliberately reducing their profit margins in violation of their fiduciary duty to shareholders. How many shareholders even realize they're being robbed to prop up Trump, I wonder? 010
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 05/08/2025"Libertarianism" in America was always about giving conservative authoritarians like Musk & Thiel a nicer name to call themselves. That word is so poisoned now, and they think you're so stupid, now they've invented "Liberaltarian" in an attempt to continue the charade. 2243
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 03/08/2025Housing = genocide is an example of something I'm seeing more of lately: conservative/"centrist" astroturfers no longer understanding what they're pretending to be. They know they need to lie about their beliefs, but due to their own deepening ignorance, none of it quite makes sense anymore. 120
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 02/08/2025Wow they just admit freely that a bunch of companies have been deliberately tanking their profit margins to prop up Donald Trump. If I was a major shareholder of one of those companies, I might have some questions about that, and maybe a lawsuit! 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 27/07/2025More and more people are saying it: Labour is previewing for us how Democrats will govern if given power again absent a MAJOR intra-party realignment in the next primaries. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 27/07/2025It's a great question, even Obama himself dismissed the accusation as "just a distraction." Which, sure, is true in a narrow sense, but it's also MUCH more than that. They can't quit bipartisanship, even with the GOP credibly threatening their execution, while actively executing other Democrats. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 24/07/2025"Downwardly mobile elites" typifies the laziness and contempt behind the new reactionary identity politics mass media is trying to push on liberals. also LMAO at all these "respectable" both-sides centrists being reduced to doing mask-off Rush Limbaugh bits about moochers and welfare queens. 000
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 22/07/2025I used to agree with the basic game theory logic of voting blue in general elections, but that was a strategy for a democracy with a functioning social contract. Now that that's all gone, explicit anti-fascism is the baseline. Anyone who can't manage that needs to switch parties or quit politics. 020
Furrierist @furrierist.bsky.social · 22/07/2025I call this philosophy Lennonism, from "You tell me it's the institutions / you better free your mind instead." It's a nice thought, that if we could all just have better personalities, that would somehow bubble up to a more equal/free society. But of course it was always just the institutions. 040
