To Brad Lander and every other progressive NY Jewish person, including friends and co-congregants, wake the hell up. Words have consequences, frequently fatal. Know and honor our 1000s of years history, values and perseverance. Most importantly, get your heads out of your asses.
Jews are being slaughtered solely because we are Jews, and NY elects a mayor who I refused to pull the lever for, despite the fact that I agree with many of his ideas and he ran an exceptional campaign, because he plays cutesy-pie semantic games withโglobalize the intifada.โ
@jimfornyc Jim, Iโm no Mamdani supporter by any stretch of the imagination, and have told friends that Iโm leaning towards you, but if by โwet nurse brigadeโ youโre referring to social workers and mental health specialists, I completely disagree with such a characterization.
@DanielRAlonso @jimfornyc Actually, rereading your message, I see that your language was quite precise and that I made an inference for which there really was no basis.
@DanielRAlonso @jimfornyc I donโt believe that Lander is a socialist, a term that has been overused and bastardized, IMO. Even Bernie Sanders, w/whose endorsement of Mamdani I vehemently disagree, is more of a Social Democrat, as am I, in the European sense of the word, than a Democratic Socialist.
