I like how the Republicans are painting him as a Communist, when they are the ones supporting Communist regimes. From what i heard from him, he's a Democratic socialist, that's pretty much the standard here in Europe. good on NY. If you think about it, not even the Millionaires want to live in the middle of desperate poor people... some has to be given back to society.
On top of that, Mamdani''s policies stimulate the NY economy, because if people have money, they spend more.
Republicans, on the other hand, drive people into poverty, which slows down spending and cripples the economy.
Some adventurous journalist should ask Arnie what he thinks about that nickname.
Dude should license some Basil Poledouris theme music. Get some wizardy guy to do a new intro -- maybe ask Bernie for a hand. "Let me tell you of a time of EQUIIITABLE treaatment!!"

Brave Sir Robin ran away,
Bravely ran away, away.
When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin.
I didn't!
I'm sure, whatever insult name they give him will be badass and he should use it in his campaign.
This is both so funny and actually cool.
You don't mess with the Zohran...
Wow. That's awesome
Fuckin’ rad.

I'm super conservative and don't live in NYC but am really enjoying this election result.
Serious question, if you are super conservative why are you enjoying it?
Super conservatives hate NYC, so he probably thinks destroying it is a good thing.
Projection maybe? NYC is already a corrupt shit hole. There's not much left to destroy. I've lived there and it sucks. You literally get black gunk in your nose from the poor air quality. You can never see the stars. Everyone there is high on copium thinking just because they ride a subway to work they are saving the world. In reality NY is a big pile of trash. Perhaps the most unnatural living conditions of any "city" I've ever visited. Furthermore a Muslim with no love for Israel won the primary. It's going to be wild to see how that goes. More Jews live in NYC than Tel Aviv.
Because Democrats are dealing with someone that doesn't fit their mold. He's a product of their policies and philosophy but doesn't walk the party line. Meanwhile mainstream Conservatives are making up reasons for why they are so upset that a super liberal city elected a super liberal which should be expected. The reality is they are dancing around the fact that he's not submissive to the Israel lobby and that makes them freak out. He's liberal sure but he's a liberal that's not going to be kissing a wall anytime soon.
Liberals are center-right. Anti-regulation, anti-guardrails, anti-equity, anti-accountability, etc. Like conservatives, they are defined by all the things they are against. Mamdani is thankfully not liberal, which is precisely why he has voters excited while liberals and conservatives are having meltdowns.
