Their scare tactics are endless.

Here’s a really interesting video that Forbes just put out about Mamdani

I think given the tone the VO is striking this is supposed to be damning or something. The comments though are great.

I think that’s the only encouraging thing in all this. Every so often the media can’t control the narrative.

They failed with Luigi so hard they just memory holed the entire thing. Every thing they tried failed, he’s a terrible criminal that gunned down a family man, people reacted with their personal stories about how UHC had destroyed their families. They give him a 50 person armed escort, the internet turns it into rap album memes.

Luigi went from having 24/7 coverage to not a peep when the media realized that people weren’t going to buy their spin.

At the end of the day all the wealthy can really do is suggest their version of the world over and over. All the people have to do is reject it.
