Hey, here's an idea, what if he is but the literal tactic that is being explained to you has worked on you tremendously

Anybody who thinks Mamdani, as mayor of NYC, is going to just magically press the communism button is a fucking idiot and you should be expecting him to do lib shit in office literally by virtue of the nature of politics within liberal bourgeois democracy forcing him to (i don't see him magically having an all communist city legislature and news flash nerds, state governments frequently step in to restrain city governments all the fucking time) but hey, here's another idea- let's wait until he's actually fucking elected before we start shit about how he's sold out instead of going WOOPS HE'S JUST LIKE AOC AND BERNIE because he said he won't keep saying globalize the intifada or what the fuck ever statement you think makes him less radical than him pushing for publicly owned grocery stores and shit does
