Doesn't matter to me
Obama promised a lot of shit and did none of it
He did worse, even
Mamdani promised to protect anti-Zionist speech
He did in the very beginning of his administration (in a very Zionist city, mind you, or at least with a strong Zionist connection and influence)
Cuomo had to go (I can't imagine the Cuomo brothers having more influence and the Democrats acting like nothing is wrong with that picture)
And he effectively got rid of him
Mamdani has so far disappointed...
...But frankly, I expect that of most politicians.
I would rather have someone that pisses off both the libs and the conservatives than another AOC (where everyone is literally just "fake-mad" about him, especially the liberal media).
If anything what you got is pretty much another AOC in Madani. It's the same every time with these "progressive" US politicians. Also I don't think Obama is a great comparison, he didn't position himself as a radical socialist. The purpose of characters like Madani, AOC, Bernie etc. is to take all radical energy in the country and steer it back into the established capitalist political system.
Cori Bush was much better than Mamdani, I'm sorry, dawg
Every one of "the Squad" is not there any more.
AOC is because she was and is rich and well-funded.
Even her backstory is made up and exaggerated.
She is there.
The other "Squad" members aren't.
I would rather have a fluke like Mamdani than a psy-op like AOC.
(anyway, whatever, Mamdani will disappoint, I already know this lol but I will take NYC traffic today than what is before lol)
