This meme is made by a leftist, and that community does have an issue with the same "if you don't explicitly agree with everything we say, you are other and therefore evil" attitude that the MAGA crowd has.
"Vote Blue No Matter Who"
(Except Mamdani)
Mamdani is a pretty good example of the left doing things right; get the right guy nominated at the party level, then worry about the election. In a two party system, election day is too late to fix anything, it's purely damage control at that point.
He ran at the right time, the stars aligned and gave him some truly wretched losers for opposition, and national media tripped over a dozen billionaire's dicks trying to insert itself into municipal politics.
But I don't think Mamdani would have been successful against a Guliani, a Bloomberg, or a DeBlasio. And if a Republican had won over a fractured Liberal/Left field, I suspect we'd be getting an earful about how Radical Islamists cost the Democratic Party the election.
There's thousands of Mamdani's in modern American politics. You can find them in every DSA chapter in America. He's not simply the product of The Left Doing Things Right. He's a product of the liberals and conservatives finally running out of gas, then tangling themselves in a knot trying to block an alternative.
Democrats Win: We didn't need the left's help with this!
Democrats Lose: It's all the left's fault, here's endless articles why.
