A mayor with no race of his own on the ballot used his office to take out three sitting Democrats who wouldn’t move further left. The party may not recognize itself by morning.
It's like Democrats looked at the viral infection that turned the GOP into an extremist, illiberal cult, and instead of getting vaccinated decided to have something like a chicken pox party.
I am all for it, we need to keep running this experiment as often as necessary. This isn't Mao's China or the Soviet Union, we are not a captive populace. People are going to leave New York and LA in droves (already happening). New York got really bad in the 70s, they need to experience that again.
Seeing them ride the Knicks' coattails despite being fair-weather bandwagoneers makes it all the more embarrassing. ZM also did a bad job planning their victory parade, then hijacked that too.
The actual quote by Gramsci is not only subtly different from Mayor Mamdani’s version, but means the opposite of what Mamdani intended.
A more accurate translation from Italian is, "The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear."
For starters, “monsters”, perhaps a more poetic translation, is a nod to Goya’s famous drawing titled “The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters” - itself a meditation on the consequences of abandoning logic and reason (hence, sleep) allowing ignorance, superstition and evil to prevail.
In context, Gramsci’s “morbid symptoms” meant extremist movements, instability and political decay. It would appear that DSA fits far more comfortably in that list than does the U.S. lobby group AIPAC whose political support for candidates is dwarfed by dozens of other lobby groups.
Facts aren’t antisemitic and if the corrupt Democratic Party is turning leftward (which they aren’t this is all theatre) then they have no one but themselves to blame for having stopped representing the poor and working class decades back under the brilliant leadership of Slick Willie.
The Democrats are being taken over by communists. Clinton was a relative moderate who eliminated the deficit. He couldn't get elected dog catcher in today’s Democrat Party, which foolishly allowed the cancer of the DSA to infect it. They are being consumed by it.
They have become the most Jew hating party since the Nazis.
They are the greatest danger to the free world and must be crushed. They are an existential threat to our nation.
Clinton was a corrupt opportunist who triangulated his way to a second term by abandoning those people who made up the Democratic Party in return for taking corporate money and money from China.
Also, he balanced the budget for a couple of years - he didn’t eliminate the deficit - by including the Social Security funds into the calculation.
Your insipid jargon and hysteria prove you are just a mindless tool who obviously supports the slaughter of tens of thousands of children across the ME by Israel - the actual existential threat fucktard.
Clinton was, by comparison to today’s Democrats, a great American. He was tough on crime, ended the failed welfare state of the Great Society, balanced the budget, and presided over one of the greatest economic booms in American history.
Today's Democrats are rapidly becoming a communist, Islamist larry that is an existential threat to the free world, thanks to pinheads like you.
I, along with millions of patriotic Americans, will fight you to the last breath. With God’s help, we will prevail, as will Israel.
You aren’t a patriot you are a traitor who has become a supplicant to a foreign country which has murdered real patriots time & again.
Clinton committed perjury, defiled the Oval Office and is a serial rapist - that you believe he is a great American proves that you are just another amoral POS.
When will 'moderation' not be a curse word?
When oh when, will the middle be a considered a good thing???

Wait a minute. Bernie Sanders ran in 2016 calling himself the first Jewish President (although he never cared that he was born Jewish before).
Now he's backing anti-Semites?
That guy just gets uglier and uglier every time he opens his mouth.
This is a horrible outcome. The DSA is using anti-Semitism to turn the Democrats into the communist party.

You're the fucking traitor, you racist, Jew hating commie mother fucker! You and your ilk are an existential threat to this country.
