DCUM posters love to portray that Mamdani’s voters are ignorant and naive and don’t know what is good for them. They cannot fathom that his voters want to help their neighbors and raise the standard of living for the working class in NYC even if that means paying more in taxes. All the unions are behind him. He’s going to win in a landslide for mayor.


The ignorant and naive part is because communism doesn’t work not because we don’t think the intentions are good.


Define communism for us, without googling. My guess is, you can't. A democratic socialist is not a communist. Stop throwing around words you do not even understand.


Hint: it involves government run grocery stores.

Spare me the idea that we don’t know what communism is.


You obviously don't if you think it’s defined by how the grocery stores are run.


If you don’t understand the link, then you are the uneducated one. It’s tiresome that when we want to debate the merits of a candidate, you all fall back on definitions. You played this game with DEI too. When we debated whether it’s appropriate for someone to be hired based off their status as an underrepresented minority, the game of “you can’t even DeFInE DeI” began. Knock it off. Tell us why Mamdani’s proposals that have been tried elsewhere and failed will suddenly work in Manhattan.


Because definitions and the way you use words matter. You're so busy being reactionary, you've not even taken the time to actually understand what it is you're screeching about.

Have you read Mamdani's proposals? Why are you so convinced there is nothing new to them, that they are mere rehashings of failed policy? And can you point out what your preferred candidate has proposed that IS different than what has already been tried and has failed?


You need to learn about human nature and character, human behavior, and how people act when certain inducements are provided. Learn the unintended consequences of them.

We don't need to go down this well worn path again because you are a poor student of life and can't think for yourself.

You know that we don’t have to explain anything, right? Go ask your parents if you need help with your homework.

He won the primary and will likely win the election.

You don’t you explain how, after seeing all of this, you could still be supporting Trump? Explain your ignorance and hate. Explain your racism and hate of freedom and America.

Please wear a condom.


What are you even talking about? The “explaining” demand was leveled at me, to define communism. Do try to keep up with the flow of the conversation as you seem totally lost. His policies are available for everyone to see and it doesn’t make me racist or hateful of America (!?) to point them out!

+1 it’s uneducated, naive voters who refuse to learn from history and what has been tried and failed already, who are the problem. Do what you want NY, but don’t come fleeing to the red states when catastrophe happens. We are full!

I've rarely donate politically and have never donated to a candidate representing another state, but this is one time where I'd happily donate.



Yes

60 pages and not one criticism of Mamdani besides "brown man scary Karl Marx".

Racist Christian Nationalists are quaking in their boots that Americans are done with their craziness.

Elect this guy and just continue to allow the GOP to win elections. The political ads write themselves


I don’t see why. We have all been saying free and fair primaries. Everyone is tired of the Andrew Cuomos of the world. I’m not a New Yorker so my opinion doesn’t matter much here, But nationally we are probably going to see some establishment dems get chopped.


Agree - I don't like a lot about Mamdani but there's a reality here that Democrats need to wake up to and confront. Voters are sick and tired of lackluster corporate establishment Democrats.


Johnson is a school teacher not a corporate Democrat.

And he's not polling in single digits.

So, um, how did he win if only a minority of voters support him?

Emerson dun goofed.

PP here. Where did Emerson say that only a minority of voters supported him?

People have opposed his proposals including government run grocery stores and his declaration that he would fund his proposals by taxing white neighborhoods which is patently racist.

And here we have someone who cannot read critically. It is no wonder Mamdani won the democratic primary with voters like you.


Did the scary numbers hurt your feelings?

Emerson's poll was a joke. They systematically excluded Mamda I voters from their analysis and then claimed that Mamdani didn't have support from them.

So walk me through it, genius. Where has the government buying wholesale groceries and selling at retail tried and failed?

In their poll. White people are not a majority in NYC. College educated people are not a majority in NYC.

Emerson predicted that Cuomo would get more #1 rank votes than Mamdani.

Don't think anyone comes near Cuomo. No one is as decorated of a sexual harasser as him. That's why all the other candidates despise him.


He can pay fines and be mayor as his prison job. Sexual harassment doesn't make someone a bad mayor
