R/conservative is really funny right now. They're clawing their own eyes out over literal NYC just because it's Daddy's favorite place

[–] shittydwarf@sh.itjust.works 97 points 1 day ago

NYC hates trump, which makes it funnier

Psyched for Mamdani and NYC but it's hard to believe how many people voted for a sexual harassmer who is also openly corrupt

[–] coldengineering1234@lemmy.world 35 points 22 hours ago

Well we do have a child diddler for a president.

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 26 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Is it "hard to believe" when the Americans voted twice to elect a full on rapist for President?... with the added qualifications of convicted felon, fraudster and 99.99% likely a pedophile?

I think it's time to accept Americans could not care less about sexual assault, women or kids rights.

Yes, that is a generalization with a nasty connotation but that is what Americans have shown to be

the russian mods have to reorient the sub soon enough.

It's quite fascinating that, on the one hand they think everything he tries will fail and he won't achieve any of the things he promised, and at the same time they also think his policies will destroy New York City and all the business will leave.

They can stay in the Mississippian trailer park. Leave the rest of the country alone.

Reverse secession - can we force them to secede? I'm really tired of all progress in this fucking country being attacked by idiots.

Republicans are scared shitless that people will get another taste of socialism like they did with the wildly popular FDR..

I hope what we take most from this is that 2026, 2028 is NOT "too early" or "too high stakes" for an ACTUAL progressive campaign. The DNC has used that argument 3x with Trump and lost said elections twice (only winning 2020 because Trump bombed w/ Covid-19). I'm certain we'll hear it again in the next two national elections.

Having a competent populist leftist politician is not a detraction. Quite the opposite. NO to Gruesome Newsom

[–] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 20 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

If AoC wins the primary I'll vote for her.

If Newsom wins the primary I'll vote for him.

I'll be donating to AoC's campaign though.

My bet is they kill him. (I don’t like it I’m just saying)

[–] Hazor@lemmy.world 15 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (2 children)

And then they blame it on "left wing political violence" and then the shooter's family will be like "look at all these pictures of him wearing maga hats" and then the media will be like "but he had a high school class with someone who's cousin was bisexual so he's obviously a left wing lunatic".

"NEW YORK WILL BE DESTROYED JUST LIKE PORTLAND!!!!!!!!!!"

Logs into all the public webcams in Portland and sees that everything is fine and, oh my, what a beautiful city.

Buys a plane ticket to Portland just in case the webcams were fake news. Oh yes, oh my, what a beautiful city.

Sadly, they aren't all old. The alt-right recruitment drive that's been running for the last decade or so has borne a lot of fruit.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 21 points 15 hours ago (4 children)

Yup.

Starting to think GenZ/Alpha aren't going to save us. Not the men anyway. They're buying into that dogshit hook, line, and sinker.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 17 points 14 hours ago

Millennials are the last generation to not be raised by an algorithm, and also seemingly the only generation that doesn't get more conservative as they age, so I guess it's up to us to save the planet.

Unfortunately, it's not just old or white people. Just look at the young GOP Nazi club or all the latinos that voted for Trump

[–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 12 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (5 children)

Watch the 20 v 1 where Mehdi from Zeteo takes on a bunch of MAGA folk. They’re all 20-30 years old and it’s fucking crazy how many of them are blatantly racist and/or fascist. I’ll have to come back with the video link for you guys.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Having lived through 2008 and 'Hope and Change', I don't expect much out of Mamdani. I'd love to be wrong about that.

Here's hoping a democratic socialist turns out to be more progressive than your standard "not actually liberal" democrat.

[–] pilferjinx@piefed.social 24 points 23 hours ago

I'm hoping a democratic socialist outperforms a corporate Democrat. He's going to face a lot of push back so it's going to be a struggle.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 22 points 23 hours ago

I think it won't be for lack of trying. He will be stymied at every turn by the city council, oligarchs, feds, etc.

[–] hanrahan@piefed.social 14 points 1 day ago

I don't think he can bring hope and change, overcoming the status quo is decades of work at muitiple levels of government supported continuously by voters.

Cumo could make it worse though.

You should see the racists from my shit hole county. In northeast Pennsylvania. Legit going out of their minds. And saying shit like their 20k a year income could ever afford them a life in NYC. Like sit down Tony. No one cares what you and your 41bmi has to say. Maybe take care of your health before you open your mouth.

[–] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 17 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

What are the young racists doing right now?

Putting on blackface for Instagram instead of going out for Halloween

New Yokers with beards are just New Yorkers without beards with beards.
