      There’s like a possibility a bunch of party Dems freak out and vote for Sliwa I guess because they’re afraid of the socialism word

    Do we know that Zohran isn’t gonna be an op like AOC? I’m glad that he’s done so well in the primary as an out and open socialist or whatever but I really don’t trust anyone that gains any sort of notoriety in US politics anymore

      we don’t but if that’s the case at least he bothered to lie about wanting good things instead of bad things, most of the ghouls don’t.

      I mean yeah we should always be cautious about overestimating how much the electeds will do for the socialist movement. However, a big part of AOC’s faltering was that she was one rep in a sea of bloodthirsty establishment dems and she didn’t have the spine for it. Mamdani would be the executive, which would give him way more leverage at the City government level, even if it’s lower on the hierarchy than AOC.

      His mother is an award winning film maker.

      His father a storied international scholar and writer. Perhaps others can fill in because his history is outside my understanding.

      In other words he comes from a certian pedigree and prestige. The potential for pete is there. Just going to have to wait and see but at lesst he isn’t Cum-o.

        While IDK if Mamdani is a true leftist. Remember that historically many of leftism’s figures are nepo babies that reject their privilege and betray their class.

        Lenin is a perfect example. His whole point of a vanguard is for mutual education, while he organizes and educates the masses on socialism, him and others like him are then educated on the struggles of the proletariat and their conditions.

          Yeah I thought of Lenin, Castro too. I hadn’t really looked anything up about the guy so I was under the assumption he might be an AOC character where she billed herself as a working class waitress but seemed to have some fishy CIA-adjacent background or something, but that seems to not be the case

        Mahmood Mamdani is a Ugandan academic, author, and political commentator of Indian ancestry, based in New York City.

        Putting his race in the first sentence of the page is pretty wild even for Wikipedia

        Ah, of course that’s the case. But it’s not like you can’t have correct politics because of that but it’s not very convincing to me when he was endorsed by Bernie and AOC. I have heard that he has some real lib takes on Palestine as well but he might need to bend his real feelings on it to court more voters.

        In any case I think he will win the general election. All of the other candidates including the one Republican eho was uncontested, want to increase police budgets which seems to be broadly unpopular, and Zohran also has cross endorsements from two other candidates. If he gets the large majority of those votes, that will push him over 50%. I will be so curious to see how this shakes out

    what was it Cuomo was famous for again? Dem insider, resigned due to several credible sexual harassment allegations, well known rivalry with DeBlasio that supposedly led to him purposely mismanaging elements of COVID and loading shipping containers with dead people?
