I critically support Mamdani in his effort to comprehensively demonstrate why electoralism is a dead end. I wish it weren’t so but it very clearly is.
One a side note do you know of any list that demonstrates all the ways in which he had to bow to fascism despite his best intentions. I’m assuming still that he has good intentions but keeps having to compromise (or feels like he has to compromise) with fascists. Or any good write-up of how exactly Mamdani’s failures are forced upon him systemically. An examination of how the base is shaping the superstructure and how you can’t just will the superstructure into something more benevolent to shape the base with a real-life example would be quite illuminating I think.

NYPD literally kidnapped one of the last decent mayor’s daughter to threaten him during blm protests iirc.
Not to absolve Mamdani but cops are literally mafias in the US.
