    You mean the election the the Democratic Party candidate won, after winning the Democratic nomination?

    And you do realize that New York City is smaller than the United States?

    Also, Kamala Harris won 67% of the New York City vote, while Mamdani got about 50% running against a known sex offender and a radio shock jock with a history of lying.

              Nobody is perfect, yes. He’s more progressive than the woman who lost to the fascist known as Trump.

                So, you’re a ‘centrist’ who will overlook flaws in order to take a small win over getting an actual revolution?

                  So you’re a “centrist” who will overlook genocide to brown people if its far away enough to fail at an election?

                    This is the most hilarious thread I’ve been on. The lack of awareness is beyond description.

                    Look at my original comment. I was annoyed that someone was trying to make Mamdani look bad because he’d endorsed Jeffries.

                    Since then I’ve been getting told I was a dangerous centrist, meanwhile people are praising Mamdani as the epitome of Socialism.

                    Just explain how I’m different from Mamdani? He’s the one who was smiling and joking around with Trump. Either he’s a genocidal centrist like me, or it’s okay for Progressives to throw aside their high ideals in order to get something done.

                    Go ahead and explain, because the pretzel logic here makes the MAGats look positively lucid.
