    Its amazing anybody still lives in NYC. Its been a nonstop rich-person exodus fleeing from Democrat governance for AT LEAST 15 years!

    :rolleyes:



    Or, you know, maybe the milionare population of NYC has doubled since 2010. One or the other. Who can say?

    Its the go-to phantom scare-the-public talking point for Republicans when they dont like the election results.

    yeah, these multi-millionaires and billionaires aren’t going anywhere, and even if a few of them do leave, they will just be replaced by others looking to establish themselves in NYC which is basically the epicenter of the financial world

    and nobody cares about their tears and fake depression

    Millions can barely afford to live, and they’re crying about a potential tax increase. Is that supposed to resonate with everyday New Yorkers?

    It doesn't really matter where they go or where they physically live. Their money is all around the world.

    EVERYTHING IS FREE!!!!

    *gets into power.

    Ahctuallyyyyyyyyy

    Thank goodness Osama has a bullet hole in his head. He'd be dining in the penthouse suite soon otherwise.

    Honestly, you've got to give the Democrats props for just how effectively they've destroyed the United States. A short 25 years from the unity of post September 11, to today. Goodness gracious. In the exact city no less.

    Nico's destruction of the Mavs might be the only thing which could give the swift and efficient demolition a run for its money.

    If only liberals could see how they're viewed by the rest of the world. It would be a sobering reality.

    9/11? Worst thing I have seen in my lifetime in America and abroad. As bad as the terrorist attack was, the way the USA handled it 100X as bad. Americans lost many rights and protections under The Patriot Act. Americans changed how they viewed the world and lost empathy… two wars that lasted over 20 years straight. The expansion of Executive power under GW, Obama and now Trump.

    It has gotten to the point in politics in the USA that I don’t even care that much about what Mamdani ends up doing - he has ran as a respectable, polite person. He actually smiles and interacts with real people and he isn’t negative all the time. He doesn’t act like the entire world is clawing to destroy us. We need more optimism and empathy and understanding of what it means to be a person.

    Trump won’t live for ever and Americans will eventually adjust to social media and realize it’s a cess pool. I look forward to more enlightened and compassionate leaders that actually do care about Americans and all people… not just money and fighting to hold on old bigoted traditions.

    Last, Osama Bin Laden is a conservative radical religious zealot. He wouldn’t want anything to do with a liberal that believes in separation of church and state and equality for women and minorities.

    Close to a million plus Afghanis and Iraqis died from illegal and genocidal wars that you probably are still salivating over. This sounds pretty fuccing racist and I’m anything but a liberal, it’s like anytime you ****ers see someone that’s brown it’s license to attack, destroy and maybe even kill them.

    It’s democracy at work—sucks you don’t like it but supporting insurrections and anti-democratic methods is not the way, which is the irony from you whole post. Or maybe you just like supporting the coverup of PDFs on govt (your GOP senators are fighting tooth and nail to protect these child abusers which I’m sure you’re on board with).

    I respect your takes in the GARM but this post really backfired (from someone that on a principled level agrees that socialist policies are not the way). Implying that Zohran and Osama have anything in common is unchristian , unamerican and quite frankly disgusting.

    ****ing idiot @Downtown Sniper centered his whole stance around the color of someone’s skin, probably still hasn’t realized the saudis are the ones funding his heroes.

    how we graduate people with such a high level of ignorance in today’s educational system should he criminal. The worst part is he’s too ignorant to understand he keeps advocating against himself. Zohran didn’t kickstart the largest expenditure in history to fund ice, Argentina and everyone else. It’s not the reason he’s poor. Blame Trump , the Grahams and all these other degenerates lining their pockets.

    you think Kevin Durant, Amen and Sengun would play for the Rockets if they didn’t have a billionaire owner ?

    I mean you can’t get dudes off the street to play for you if you don’t pay them money

    these socialists were never Rockets fans
    Cause the Rockets and the NBA are pure capitalism at its peak

    Fleeing socialism bcz hes going to give people free public transportation? Mamdani has never proposed taking equity stakes in NYC companies. Instead he simply said in neighborhoods that dont have big chain grocery stores hell open a city grocery store to provide for the area. He proposes doing free public transportation.

    You cultists are okay with Trump forcing the government to become the largest shareholder in various corporations but you draw the line at free bases and trains?

    Jesus you people are so brainwashed. Get a grip youre being played

    I'm asking you. Why is socialism when Mamdani gives free busses but not when Trump makes the US government the largest shareholder in Intel? Why do corporations get unlimited bailouts but working class gets a free train ride and its socialism?

    One day you'll realize you've been brainwashed by culture war garbage

    That’s not the worst part.

    we’re already getting taxed at the socialist bracket without any of the benefits

    I just don’t get why it doesn’t click for some people.
