No. the LGBTQ+/-?<>&! idiots are presently an important part of his coalition.

Maybe in ten years, when the Hamas / Islamic State part of his coalition is more entrenched and established, they will host some LGBTQ+/-?<>&! themed rooftop celebrations.

I pay quite a bit in taxes. Live in a big city, own a house, work a good job, wife works a good job. You are a strange fella.

He’s also missing a main point here. Many people, including Hillary Clinton, admired Alinsky’s methods of community organizing, which were at the time new and very innovative. That had nothing to do with his ideology. It’s akin to someone who studies warfare admiring Erwin Rommel or Robert E Lee. That doesn’t make you a Nazi or in favor of slavery.

Eh Alinsky was outmoded by 1980, but if anyone has followed his model of popular agitation (which is old hat) it’s Donald Trump.

Yeah but certain people on the right loved using Alinsky as a bogeyman for years, the same way they use George Soros now. 

Hmm do Alinsky and Soros have anything in common?

Zohran Mamdani, moments ago, puts blame on Trump's rhetoric for the bomb threats we're seeing at polling stations:

"I think that it is an illustration of the attacks we're seeing in our democracy. Sometimes they're blatant and explicit in the manner of these bomb threats, and we have to understand this as part of the general approach the Trump administration has taken to trying to intimidate voters with baseless allegations of voter fraud as a means of trying to repress the voice of Americans across this country."

I take back my statement that Mamdani has never managed anything.  He started a chapter of Students for Justice of Palestine (SJP) at Bowdoin.  Because he loves Jews!

Yes, Zohran Mamdani co-founded a chapter of 

Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at Bowdoin College while he was a student there. 

As an undergraduate, Mamdani was a prominent activist for the Palestinian cause, and through the SJP chapter, he led a campaign to persuade the college to join an academic boycott of Israel, which the college president ultimately rejected. His involvement in SJP and his pro-Palestinian activism has been a significant point of discussion throughout his political career.

Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is not officially designated as a terrorist organization by the United States government or any other government

. 

However, the organization and its various chapters have faced significant accusations of supporting and glorifying U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

Careful throwing that gun, you might hurt somebody with it.   

- Started a Muslim terrorist-aligned group in college.

- Wants to globalize the Intifada.

- Born in a Muslim government country and raised by parents from that environment.

- Wants to exhaust all legal avenues to arrest Netanyahu.

Silwa voters are welcome but that offer extends to them singularly. At present, the rest of the country is not interested in providing refugee status to Cuomo or Mamdani voters. I'm wanting to see Gaza-type walls but with full access for Greta Thunberg food delivery boats to stock government grocery stores full of organic kale and organic Belgian endives.

At least you’re joking. Some of the forearm hysterics think NYC is going to look like the Warriors in a few years because of a rent freeze.

I think the country would benefit greatly from a few years of observing what happens to a population willing to impose Mamdaniism on themselves. If he wins the election, I hope Mamdani is successful in implementing all his policies so we see the full effect.  In this regard, I agree fully with Mahmdani voters. Focking bring it.

A rent freeze = free rent and free transportation is a crazy idea! Did you hear about that club Mamdani started in college?

I doubt he gets much of his agenda through, but NY would be fine regardless.

I give him credit for at least trying something instead of rage tweeting and trolling.

Andrew Cuomo LMFAOOOO! 

New Yorkers are going to give this Mamdani guy a shot. Never had a real job in his life. Probably grew up around a lot of wealth personally, but seems to have a feel for what people in NYC actually want. 

This is not what’s going to win elections in Pennsylvania, or in North Carolina, or nationally. But at least he seems to care about New York City, a hell of a lot more than Cuomo, or you for that matter.

Here’s the thing. If you don’t live in New York, or if you don’t like New York, or if you would never come here, then easily take several focking seats. No one gives a fock what you think about this LOL  

[The Real timschochet 7,413]

I think some people here are going to be really surprised when Mamdani governs like a normal, liberal NYC mayor. Most of his wilder ideas he has no power to enact. I think he’ll be fine.

Going back in the spring to see some more shows. Can’t get enough of the shows. And the food.
