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.

I won't bore you with all the details, but yes. The details are currently what's being worked on, but there is a consensus among DSA leaders outside of the "right" caucuses that DSA needs to begin experimenting with operating as a fully independent political party where possible. I could write a longer post if you're interested, but it would be mostly internal politics stuff.

Sorry, let me clarify.

Is Mamdani pursuing such a strategy?
