Here’s someone who admits he voted for Zohran Mamdani. Don’t come at him with all of this talk about Democratic Socialism—he has no idea what’s in the DSA platform, and whatever it says is irrelevant to him. What set him off was Matt Taibbi’s response to a since-deleted post:
Not sure what the identity of the tweeter has to do with anything, or even why you care about Bill Maher for that matter – abolishing the Senate, Presidency, and Supreme Court are really in the DSA platform. Are you in favor of that? https://t.co/ykApKe01zKhttps://t.co/0X4SpdCVJXpic.twitter.com/5CE9Vjw6Qx
Yes, abolishing the Senate, the presidency, and the Supreme Court, as well as prisons and borders, are all in the DSA platform. But this guy just wanted free buses and cheaper groceries.
You know what, Matt? I have no idea what’s in the DSA platform, and I’m not a DSA member, so frankly, whatever it says is irrelevant to me. I voted for Zohran because he promised fast & free buses, a rent freeze & cheaper groceries.
Buses aren’t free and won’t be for the foreseeable future, and the first city-owned grocery store won’t open until 2029.
He also happens to be a decent human being who thinks that it’s wrong to commit genocide and that our American taxpayer dollars shouldn’t be used to fund it. So that was a nice perk too.
I don’t know anything about the DSA’s platform, but I know that Jesus was a communist.
So you want all of the discredited leftist philosophy without bothering to understand the impact of these discredited decrepit policies. Got it, you’re a moron.
If this is the extent of your ability to reason then please abstain from voting going forward. The real world is far more complicated and the stakes far higher than you understand.
Congratulations. The city is going to hell but you got a rent freeze which might make it impossible for landlords to make improvements or pay the odious taxes & then the minions of @NYCMayor can seize the properties.
Do yourself a favor and educate yourself on the DSA platform. It is frightening. And, the fact that you choose to stay ignorant because of your love of “free buses” and “cheaper groceries” shows how much of a lemming you are.
You should really check into how socialism worked out every single time it’s been tried. Promises of free stuff, followed by shortages of everything and authoritarianism with an unparalleled body count.
Jon Stewart asked Mamdani if he was on board with abolishing prisons and borders, and he just flashed that Mamdani smile and said, “If you have more than one socialist in a room and there isn’t disagreement, then you don’t have more than one socialist in a room.”
