    If there is one place in the world which should be wary of muhammedans,
    it's New York. Sadly, they have the attention span of a goldfish and
    already forgot who was responsible for the worst attack on the country
    since Pearl Harbor.

    He blames Muslims because some Muslims do some bad things that lead to violent deaths.

    But there is a FAR higher percentage of violent deaths that come from males.
    By his "logic", all males should be held accountable.

    Is Mamdani’s victory the basis for a strategy the Democrats can adopt
    as a party? Opinion seems divided <https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/mamdanis-mayoral-election-lead-has-withstood-republicans-establishment-democrats-and-wall-street/GULKPJ3FBJAENJIVGSC3RVJZXY/>:

    Aspects of Mamdani’s campaign that some thought would doom his
    candidacy - his vociferous criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza,
    his past calls to defund the police and his refusal to flee from
    the political label of socialist - haven’t turned off a plurality
    of New York voters, despite a torrent of campaign spending from
    some of the city’s wealthiest residents.

    Instead, the 34-year-old assemblyman’s campaign - with its focus
    on core economic concerns combined with an online charm offensive
    and occasional searing barb at his critics - is working well
    enough that some political observers see a model for future
    Democratic candidates and races.

    “His campaign is not really about him,” but hammers on the theme
    of lowering the cost of living for average New Yorkers, said
    Amanda Litman, co-founder and president of the non-profit Run for
    Something, which recruits new progressive Democratic candidates.

    “He really clearly answers the question why voters should want him
    to win.”

    Yet Mamdani’s ideas for how to lower the economic burden on
    working-class and middle-class families - including through tax
    hikes on the wealthy and rent freezes - have generated a current
    of fear among other Democratic politicians and operatives.

    They argue that what voters might find appealing in New York won’t
    carry Democrats to victories in the congressional Midterms next
    year or the presidential election in 2028.

    To somebody who lives in a multiparty democracy, the idea that there
    should be any doubt about adopting a winning strategy to win again
    just seems bizarre. But then, the USA isn’t a multiparty democracy, is
    it? It’s two broad coalitions, each a hodgepodge of factions with
    ill-defined agendas, and the main aim of each is not so much to
    benefit the people, as to take power from the other.

    We take it for granted, in a democracy, that the good of the country
    should come before your allegiance to any particular political party;
    but in the USA that is seen by many as crazy talk.

    I'll bet this bet today, November 5th, 2025, twenty years to the day I
    met my wife: within the next twenty years, New York will be like London
    and be in the midst of a civil war with camps divided by skin colour and religion. It was nice while it lasted, but it's over now. New York has
    fallen.

    Interesting comment in another news report: the things Barack Obama was falsely accused of -- being a foreigner, being a Muslim, and being a
    Socialist -- Zohran Mamdani freely, proudly and unapologetically admits he
    is.

    The right-wingers were trying to fabricate a bogeyman out of Obama, to put voters off; with Mamdani, that bogeyman has not only come to life, he’s actually popular with the voters.

    Interesting observation.

    I wonder if this strategy would have success in other parts of the
    world too. In Germany, there is the ‘social-democrat party’ (SPD)
    but they don't claim to be ‘socialists’. ‘Socialism’ is still
    something that only the radical leftists claim for themselves, as
    far as I can tell, while most people fear socialism, like
    communism.

    I suspect in East-Europe it's similar. The UdSSR left a bad image
    on socialism, whereas few people see that there are less
    authoritarian approaches to it than what the UdSSR did.

    would not matter if he was.

    We have MANY people who are religious in government. So Mamdani is. OK. So what? Welcome to America where you have freedom of religion. And being a "socialist", what policies of his are controversial? Wanting what pretty much every other "modern" nation has and ensuring we all have reasonably good
    health care? Wanting the ultra-rich to pay their fair share... as they did in the past and when the middle class was stronger? Wanting better education? Wanting a better economy for all? Wanting affordable housing? Wanting us to listen to evidence on climate change and base policies on the science? All of these are very popular positions.

    How? By being black? THAT is what the right attacked him over. They went so
    far as to say a black man, born in Hawaii, was not a "real American". White supremacists cannot stand that he was president.

    If anything, the right should have pressed harder in

    Yet you have no real issue with Trump: a fascist oligarch pushing echoes of Nazi Germany.

    Obama
    was also responsible for getting rid of the Smith-Mundt Act which
    prevented press agencies from freely lying to the public.

    He allowed the US public to hear it.

    Mamdani inspires people. Even with another pseudo-Democrat in the race,
    he won convincingly (admittedly, Cuomo had baggage beyond most). I
    think people will be happy with this outcome. A younger but very bright person can bring something new, to NYC's local politics. I see in him a genuine rising star, like AOC who I believe will run for president and

    There will be problems in NY, and the right wingers will exaggerate them and blame him. They will like about him, as they already are and did with Obama. They will not be able to be honest... because they know their real agenda is not something people want.

    People want what Mamdani is supporting: universal health care, a better
    economy (tons of evidence shows the economy does better under Democrats), taking climate change seriously, affordable housing, measures to reduce crime in a respectful and legal way, backing equal rights for the LGBTQ+ community, etc.

    It is a shame that basic facts are politicized.
