In a press conference this week on New York City’s $12 billion budget gap, Mayor Zohran Mamdani zeroed in on the previous administration’s artificial intelligence chatbot as one of “a number of different things we’re going to pursue for savings.”

Where are these tankies that hate Mamdani so much? What do they hate him for?

I have seen a few, here is one I saved from some time back.

A lot of things get removed from .ml so its hard to go back find things sometimes. If you are around lemmy a while you will find quite a few takes from tankies.

Idk, the post calls him infiltrator but there is -54 likes. It just looks like general .ml likes Mamdani.

Also if they are removing the posts and comments against him, doesn't that mean he is liked over there?

So I had a look at the voting score and only 5 of those down votes came from .ml, most are from .world accounts.

Hard to say, I have seen a few that outright don't like him. But more of a he isn't as far to our liking overall.
