If Zohran Mamdani doesn’t have a campaign slogan, it should be that Democrats get what they deserve. Take Burlington, Vermont. They’ve got a two-party Democracy. Far left Democrats and further left progressives. The result is a city in rapid decline exhibiting the characteristics of every socialist toilet in human history. But it’s not their fault. More money and regulations will fix it. We promise.
No matter how bad it gets, those voters keep buying what they sell, and then pay dearly, confused at why the promised utopia continues to elude them. It’s like they are co-dependent on the government—victims of a different sort of domestic abuse. I’m sorry, baby, I love you. I promise I won’t hit you ever again.
Bam!
It’s not difficult to see. So simple, in fact, dopey bloggers notice. But if you need something more tangible, I just finished watching a Tucker Carlson interview with Liz Collin. Liz got canceled because her Husband ran the police Union in Minnesota. Not a safe space during the Summer of Love, so Collen, a TV news anchor with 14 years at the local CBS affiliate, got desk duty and never went on the air again. Because of whom her husband was. She was a woman. A reporter. Maybe even a Democrat, and a sane one. But her husband was a cop in the shadow of a massive political psyop to turn a dead addict who’d overdosed into a reason to burn cities and steal things. So, she had to go.
Tolerance is not an option on the left, ever.
Liz has since written a book [They’re Lying: The Media, The Left, and The Death of George Floyd], was part of a documentary [The Fall of Minneapolis, which you can watch for free], and now reports for Alpha News so she can tell the truth and keep a job in media. This independent outlet does journalism in Minnesota, perhaps the only one, and its revelations are not unexpected if you are a student of the Left and its impact on everything.
Here’s a short, relevant clip from her recent sit-down with Tucker Carlson.
The Minneapolis city council is run by socialists, so Vermonters take note. This is Burlington’s future, and New York City as well, at least on its current trajectory. As bad as it was during the Summer of Love and the whole of New York’s COVID tyranny, the systemic destruction of that metropolis is inevitable if Self-described socialist Zohran Mamdani manages to defeat newly independent Eric Adams [the current mayor] for the gig as the next mayor of the Big Crapple.
Steve McKee, writing at The Daily Signal, summarizes it thusly.
If Mamdani gets his way, his policies will significantly expand the number of minimum wage earners—minimum wage always and everywhere being $0—run off millionaires and billionaires with punitive taxes, cause an unprecedented exodus of jobs and corporate headquarters, bankrupt the bus and subway systems, exacerbate the housing shortage, pour gasoline on the city’s crime problem, roll out the red carpet to illegal immigrants, fund gender dysphoria-affirming child mutilation, put Christians in the legal crosshairs, and further globalize the intifada, among other things.
Rumor has it he’s not a big fan of Jews either, so NYC’s self-hating Jew population must have swelled post-COVID, or they don’t vote in primaries. Perhaps it’s a ploy to make New York City a bigger shithole than San Francisco.
That’s the only promise the Marxists running as Progressives, Democrat Socialists, or just modern-day Democrats can guarantee, which is why they never tell you that truth. What they want is bad for minorities, women, children, jobs, wages, peace and tranquility, access to everything, and they do not care. The only people who matter can still donate to them from Florida or Northern New England, or whatever fashionable western state they’re hoping to ruin, because fleeing tyranny does not mean you don’t value it for others. It does, after all, need the rich to make them there, which, in return, gets them monopolies that keep the ruling class well fed and feeling morally superior. At least until you do something silly like Liz Collin, then excommunication is the best possible outcome.
Mandami, of course, had it all going for him. He’s handsome (some might say), he’s charismatic, and many of his voters are the AOC class of millennials who think that brand of socialism, whose true history they never learned, is different enough from the present political circumstances to be worth their vote, if not their scrutiny. His opponent was Andrew Cuomo, an alleged sex offender, which is not typically a deal breaker for candidates on the left. Still, Cuomo is the guy who actually killed grandma during COVID, among other oppressions, and even New York Style Libs have long enough memories for things like that.

The primary was also a ranked-choice vote, which favors the worst candidate in almost every instance. With millions of potential virtue signalers on tap, the younger, smarter-looking brown guy has to win, or you can’t signal your virtue around whatever passes for a water cooler in New York these days [do they still have boxes of useless face masks on them?].
That’s how Obama got elected. What would people say if I didn’t vote for the brown guy?
New York Libs, like most, vote for the social credit score. They support defending illegal alien criminals, killing the unborn, and mutilating children because it supposedly impresses their “friend group.” Kill the rich sounds good (as long as it’s not them), and tax them too (same deal). That’s what happened to Minneapolis, San Francisco, Seattle, and so on. Appearances are more important, which is what has put cities like Burlington in Vermont and Claremont in New Hampshire on the same slope into decline.
Democrats destroy everything they touch. The truth is always the opposite of the narrative. Accusations are always projections. Black Lives never mattered in Minneapolis (or anywhere else), but the chaos the movement fomented did. As does the ruin in its wake.
Sergey Nechayev, the inspiration behind the ends justified by communist revolutionary means, wrote in his Marxist bible, The Revolutionary Catechism, that, “The only form of revolution beneficial to the people is one which destroys the entire State to the roots and exterminates all the state traditions, institutions, and classes… “Our task is terrible, total, universal, and merciless destruction.”
That’s the political Left. That’s Mamdani. And what Minneapolis is today is unfinished business. It is what Zohran will be tasked with if he achieves the office of Mayor. His advertised policies will ensure it, and the people of New York, should they choose him, will get what they asked for. The lesser of two evils is Eric Adams, a Democrat-turned-independent, who is less dangerous. However, New York City appears to have transitioned, like Burlington, beyond the ability to elect anyone who isn’t bad for them.
