Yeah we should totally shit on him for anything shitty he does (ruthless criticism of all that exists) but got to hand it to him for being probably the best mayor in NYC history (a depressingly low bar).

Commentary should be confident and fair in both directions. It's been easy for the American (online) left when there is 0.1 percent of institutional power (just Bernie throwing a bone, but still marginalized as to what he can accomplish). Now it's like 0.3% with Mamdani actually able to do something with his position, but it's looking up so we (internet commentators) need to he ready to scale and keep the criticism dialed in imo

0.000003% of communism has been built. Progress!

But in all seriousness his victory at least is something we should hammer hard on against liberals and "centrists". I had an argument with my cousin and her friend the other night when she was going on about how Kamala only lost because she was a woman. I think I effectively got the point across that we really can't know that and that if Biden had been facing election after supporting Israel's massive escalation of genocide he would have eaten shit too.

Lol, what? He hasn't even done anything. He's not even close to La Guardia.
