Can’t we mourn the loss of a furry friend without bringing up immigration? I have lost so much faith in humanity. Nothing is pure and sacred anymore.

    I thought peanut the squirrel was political from the getgo. Granted the first I heard of his killing was from alt right pro cop propaganda (ironically) I did hear his owner was also vocally alt right and dressed the squirrel in some costumes that supported some of his views. I could be wrong, do correct me if so

    edit: I was wrong. alt right was unrelated, unless the lady that called was actually mad the owner said “Trans Rights” and kiwifarmsed the squirrel

      I heard about it from penguinz0. He made a video about it. It was a sad story. He’s definitly not alt right. He got shit on by the right for saying trans kids should be able to transition.

        ok I just saw the cr1t1kaL video and did mroe research and it was the other way around? alt right fucks were upset about a homoerotic gent having a viral pet squirrel? but then championed the most evil cop event into a pro cop movement? this makes less sense every waking hour
