This is great! Can't wait for him to no be able to do anything due to gridlock from the NYC democratic party machine and have to capitulate constantly, and then the massive Centrist Lib media apparatus will blame every problem plaguing NYC (even if the problems predated his mayoralship) which will give the Dem establishment more ammunition to blame all their woes on the progressive wing of the party and sell disenfranchised urban poor voters on establishment Dems.

Really a big fucking win for us. Letting the city sink under and establishment Dem was totally not the smarter fucking move.

Also if anyone calls me a doomer for this take I'll be recording your usernames and asking you how you feel about this post in a year from now.

Do i think that this is going to matter when it comes to the long term trajectory of America? No. Do i think he will manage to do all the things he claims? No. I don't even vote in elections(I do fill out ballots but usually write in "Fuck America" or vote PSL ig) and don't pay attention to them much. But if this means the NYPD will murder like 5% less innocent black people for a few years then i see that as a win atleast.

Now I'm still on the fence about if even that much will happen tbh. A lot of these people run as like dem-soc types and end up just being typical libs with better marketing (AOC/Bernie Sanders). So we'll see i guess.
