Mamdani in 2021:

He is an American politician. I had hope too and I fell for his "no more" speech. I was an idiot. American politicians are what they are.

Everytime I see him doing Obamaisms I just remember when he said "Black liberation is queer liberation" and laugh, this snake just says shit

"our family beyond the binary" hits

endless DSA humiliation ritual continues

@MarxianAngel The fact that people still fall for this grift after everything we’ve witnessed, along with this illogical belief that one of the party members from the literal architects of this genocide will somehow legitimately oppose their policies is beyond absurd.

I wonder if tisch and co threatened to take him out back if he didnt capitulate

The best answers are usually systematic and not conspiratorial/parapolitical. Some MUG people said it first & I totally dismissed them at the time: winning the mayoralty without enough representation elsewhere would just lead to isolation, compromise and cooptation

@speedrcerx3000 parapolitical accounts (of which Threatened is a fanciful example) are part of systemic analysis in that they merely pinpoint the mechanisms by which the DotB functions. you don't need them here if you already accept the DotB, but shouldn't discard them in service of denying it

@speedrcerx3000 U always got banger shit to say pls come in my replies more often

"Beyond the binary"

absolute fall off

so he should just leave his job as mayor to go protest about something that’s already happening and he’s told us his stance?

That *is* his job

no his job is to deliver for his city. Yes ideology is important but it doesn’t feed your kids, policy does.

Things that happen in NYC that affects New Yorkers = “delivering”; “feeding your kids” Things that happen in NYC that affects Palestinians = “ideology”

yes exactly.

Take that assumption accepted consciously, sprinkle in a few drops of petite bourgeois political activity, add a few crises of imperial defeat for flavor and - boom - you’ve got Nazism

That's how it started. Here's how it's going:

Are we arm chair quarterbacking one of the only politicians we have? He can’t do it all on his own

He is the mayor of new york city.

You really could tell he's a phony from his big fake smile he's always wearing.

You’ll notice that he’s just talking and doesn’t have any real power to do anything in this clip.

Nice now when is everyone going to put pressure on everyone else besides mamdani? ICC warrants which mamdani wanted to arrest Netanyahu has been seen as not accepting American government now

have you thought about the logistical nightmare it would be if he went? and have you also thought about the fact that him going would change absolutely nothing?

Fucking hell he used to have motion

Omg, politicians lie? Even those who say you should trust them? Yeah, we were the fools.. not Mamdani..

Sell out
