The person who did this post went private. I like to fight so I’m reposting.
The replacement of natural beauty with ornamental opulence in these two photographs are exemplary of the current Regime’s Priorities. This is the first of many hallmarks that shall be studied.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani compared the Knicks' championship run to being a New Yorker: your back against the wall, impossible odds, and finding a way anyway.
He called New York the "0.4% city."
That's a line that's probably sticking around. 🧡💙

Congratulations to Mayor-elect Janeese Lewis George.
when we say “crime is a social construct”.
what we mean is that you, as an individual, can go to jaił for littering but a corporation can poıson the air, the soil, and the water of an entire town, and no one will go to jaił.
She did NOT steal the diapers but even if she did IT’S NOT A CAPITAL LEVEL OFFENSE or even a FELONY in most states, the threshold is too low. Trigger happy cops playing judge jury and executioner over $50 diapers?!
We say Black Lives Matter because y’all need to be reminded
Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."
there is something so deeply vile about how people can GRADUATE from school in the time they’re at rikers, A PRE-TRIAL JAIL, NOT EVEN A PRISON. THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN SENTENCED WITH ANY CRIME
@The_Real_Desboe@TheCmone27@DreadedJai It is as if you say “I don’t like that my brother is a crackhead bc he’s bad with money and he’s always asking me for money” and then you go give him crack because then he’s not spending the money then. Instead you need to help him remove him from his disastrous environment.
@The_Real_Desboe@TheCmone27@DreadedJai To enable him into the highest office in the land and then say “well I only agree with some of his policies” while he threatens the very way of life of Americans is deeply dishonest.
De Niro: I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser.
I can’t love a country that starts stupid and inhumane wars, killing thousands of innocents and indirectly causing the deaths and suffering of millions more.
I can’t love a country that takes healthcare away from millions of people and uses that money to enrich their pals in the Trump-Epstein class.
I can’t love a country that sends out masked militias to shoot citizens in the streets, torture our neighbors, and separate families.
I can’t love a country that’s led by a racist, misogynist, xenophobic tyrant.
And let me just say it: I can’t love a country that’s led by Donald Trump and his sycophant Congress.
Mamdani closed a $12B deficit in 132 days, fixed 100K+ potholes, secured millions for gig workers, fined corrupt landlords millions, raised snow workers to $30/hr, and violent crime hit historic lows.
THIS IS WHAT A LEADER DOES!!
