Red guard theater kid occupied government. They weaponize identity to monetize white guilt. We need to train citizens to spot subversive sociopaths and propaganda.
Stop the race bashing. "White" women aren't the only idiots caught up in this. We need to de-normalize the use of white as a pejorative, whether aimed at women or men.
--Or "white-adjacent", or "race traitors" -- even the strange, and still operative, use of upper- and lowercase Black and "white", seen in most US print media. An insidious continuation of "antiracist" discrimination that seems to be accepted now as correct usage, and will not be expunged without action.
Yeah, I think people found it edgy and cool for a while, but if you don't realize how badly racial (ethnic, religious, etc) hate mongering can go, you don't know history.
Yup. Accusations of privilege multiplied by affectations of victimhood are always the precursors to genocide, whether based on race, religion, or class. Even so, it is crazy how many of the targets will buy into this collective guilt. Are they trying to appease the aggressor by fawning, or are they lapping up the free morality points loosened by the moral affectations of the aggressors?
Main reason why neo-Marxists made race their fetish is that they quickly discovered that capitalism combined with liberal democracies offers people economic freedoms, poor could become wealthy and their revolutionary spirit disappears. Race baiting on the contrary is based on immutable characteristics and becomes a permanent fuel for a permanent revolution, exactly as Trotsky wanted it.
One cannot recognize evil until one can see the good. Socialists always promise evil that people mis-read as the good. Socialists don't fail in delivering good, they succeed in delivering evil.
He made a brief, splashy political career out of identity theft. Figurative and literal. I remember reading a defense of him by one of his allies when his story was in the news, saying that all of his bio claims were really him trolling the phonies in politics, like Sen. Pocahontas and his fellow New Yorker AOC. Following their lead and doing them even better to shine a light on how corrupt and phony they all are.
Thing is, when you take on the system they had a thousand ways from Sunday to get back at your. And he left enough "there" there to end up in prison. But he had a point. And even won congressional election by doing what they do. He wasn't an "untouchable" though. That's reserved for the Marxist theater kids.
There is no credibility because the word-salad ideologies never amount to a coherent creed. Instead they operate viscerally, taking possession of the lizard-brain, making people immune to rational or moral concerns. It is the pornography of resentment.
All so true. However, as the youth of the age of AOC and Mamdani and younger are becoming more and more indoctrinated with the victim mentality I wonder if your very logical answers will be able to overcome the madness. It's a scary time. Thanks for all of your great writing
The problem is that the dishonesty of their claimed backgrounds is well-known. Even I know that Mamdani's claim that, as a "third-worlder," he analyzes the "Palestinian issue" differently than others is ridiculous given that he left the "third-world" when he was three. But our garbage "news media" have no interest in revealing any dishonesty that interferes with the narrative. A democracy relies on an informed electorate and, instead, we have a thoroughly propagandized electorate.
But the end of the day, it’s the dumb people who vote for them🤦🏼♀️.
I ran for County Commission last year (as a Republican) in a progressive little college town, and during one forum, an incumbent commissioner… super progressive, 35 year old lesbian… said that we could not lower property taxes because “that will help homeowners but not renters… and we have to help the low income people.” 🤦🏼♀️ It was shocking to everyone there, mostly all Democrats, that she was this ignorant, but she won because her base labeled her opponent “ anti-trans and anti-VAX.” He was just an Independent small business owner with 4 daughters…you know, a dumb guy. 😂
So. People vote against their own self interest because they are uneducated and/or they are captured by a cultish religion called The Democrat Party.
There was a reason the founding fathers feared voting by the masses. They would not let them elect senators, and the president was elected by electoral votes.
I’ve said this elsewhere but since you mention religion I’ll repeat it. “Advocates of Social Justice” ie dems/progs), their worshippers and adherents throughout government are violating the First Amendment—establishment of religion.
I think I understand the point, if you lower the costs to the owners of the properties, you shoulf see a lower rent.
Understandable, but likely wrong.
Price is set by the market, supply and demand. Profit is price minus cost. So reducing cost tends to increase profit.
Now the increased profit potential may spur development that causes competition that may lower price.
Tell that to a driver who is looking for the best price in a street full of gas stations.
In the small college town example you make, the price is set by proximity to the action, like the gas stations on a street and number of these really can't expand.
Just a thought. Your mileage may vary, or should I say millage.
1. We are a top 10 city in the United States, where less than half the residents are owners.
2. Property taxes in our county have soared because (among other reasons )we decided to attract a homeless population and then spend millions of dollars on homeless programs modeled after the failed policies of West Coast cities.
3. Our city is on pace to set a new record low for new home construction, 33 permits so far. It doesn’t have to be this way, but they have adopted a no growth position while counties all around us are growing.
4. Our county is exploring universal basic income… 😂Something with no record of success.
So I think it’s really just about the people that are making the decisions and the voters who elected them.🤷🏼♀️. And if you didn’t live here 20 years ago then you don’t know that it used to be clean, low crime, low housing costs, low taxes, and booming with business, etc.
My property taxes are close to $700 per month, and that represents a 500% increase over 25 years, with little transparency from our local government.
Let me guess?You live in Austin! If so,I completely understand your pain(and the history associated with it)If not , I imagine the general history is similar.
You make a solid argument, as usual. If New Yorkers have any sense, they'll back Eric Adams—flaws and all. Have they already forgotten the mess under DeBlasio? Progressive liberalism didn’t just set the city back—it’s been a slow rot from the inside. It's not just bad policy, it's a problem that needs to be dealt with, decisively.
I'm a reformed and red ( almost black) pilled progressive. I worked for the sellout and fraud Bernie Sanders in 2016 ( not knowing he was a sellout and fraud - until we brought evidence to him that Hillary stole 16 state primaries - and he refused to file even one lawsuit. That meeting with Obama at the White House - where the press showed Obama with his hand upon Bernie's back as he was leaving? That was the Judas moment. Obama promised him $44 million in USAID money).
In any event - I worked with sellout fraud Ocasio Cortez in several state primaries - and so much didn't add up about things she claimed and ways she acted - that I was confused ( I was also trying to sleep with her - she was super attractive back then and fit:)
Once the delusion about Bernie was gone ( and I had a 4 time Senate aid admit that the Gore Team actually STOLE the 2000 Election from Bush - 2.8 million votes- it wasn't hanging chad's or Nader - those were two cover stories) - all delusion was gone. I got to see clearly how all Democrats are Marxists - and how dumb Ocasio Cortez is ( she's great in a room - interrogating people - but horrible at actually thinking and formulating policy). While dumb - she's also DANGEROUS - because she's smooth enough to lie to her backers - who are mostly ignorant Latinos, Blacks and People of Color ( I'm Puerto Rican - and trust me - the bulk of the Latino demo has no idea how politics work - unless they've come from Marxist countries like Venezuela and Cuba - and they've learned thru pain. Most are uneducated, struggling just to survive economically - and susceptible to "victim talking points").
Everything the Marxist/Dems do has literally been ripped from the pages of ANIMAL FARM.
And most people haven't read the book - so, for the last six years - the Democrats have played that out in our lives.
And it will continue until We, the People - make examples of some of them. And that means being as ruthless with them, as they've been with us - through their two-pronged democide ( 41 million mercenary illegals - and the bioweapon rollout).
Many Democrats in Florida voted for Bush and the Dems blamed Nader! That was when I forever turned against them. The Republicans didn't vilify Perot after his candidacy may have cost them an election. Gore couldn't even win his own state and they dared to go after Nader so viciously!
First, it’s not identity theft, it’s called cultural appropriation. The left hates when anyone else does it—like a white kid dressing up like an Indian with a feathered headdress. I guess it’s OK for an Indian to pretend to be black, as long as the Indian is a lefty. If it were still trendy to be trans, Mamdani might have tried pretending that, too. Who would call him out on it?
Second, a politically effective rebuttal has to come from influential people in the group whose culture is being appropriated. Prominent blacks would have to step up and call out Mamdani as being anything but black, and they have to show genuine resentment for the lie. Likewise, some Bronx denizens would have to come against AOC. The former might happen; very unlikely that we’ll ever see the latter.
Well, yeah. Until recently, anyway. The MSM seems to be moving away from the crazies. Not sure why or how they suddenly got religion, but that seems to be the case at the moment.
They represent a not small percentage of the population that is despicable and callous. Unfortunately, democracy gives a voice and a vote to such people, too. As long as those people exist, these politicians will thrive.
And to what end? They, like the other socialist/Communist leaders, have everything they need-- money, power, fame; At some point doesn't that get old and draining? Sadly, the ignorance of college students helps them, along w/low income minorities who hope these deceivers will bring them a better life. Wealth distribution, no property ownership, all "equal" government distribution sounds good to an idealistic student but those w/the toys don't want to give to those who have no toys; especially if hard work gave them the toys. I am a former immigrant who lived under Communism, now a grateful U.S. citizen. This is the most tolerant, inclusive, diverse country in the world! All U.S. citizens have equal justice under the law. However, there is no such thing as equity; equal outcomes and it has nothing to do w/ discrimination. I had to escape my socialist/Communist country because they would not let me leave like North Korea as one example. Too much emphasis on day to day problems but not many in the trenches doing the heavy lifting. Thank you for the 2 steps we can take to expose "leaders" like AOC and this NYC candidate. Also the hypocrisy of the left-- if you are Muslim, LGBTQ, Black, immigrant, you are a victim being oppressed-- unless you are in that group but voted for Trump or you are conservative. God bless the USA! STEVE Akron,Ohio

These two politicians hope to lead a revolutionary army of over-educated comfortable complaining white women onto the barricades.

Let's just say what they really are not using race, color, ethnicity, or what country their family comes from. They are liars.
lol. These young white women are so neurotic they wouldn’t know what to do with a barricade.
They would send their maid and yardman!
Maybe that would be a good thing?

George Santos.

Not sure how a progressive little college town turned into a top 10 city.
And I don't question why you'd want you property taxes lowered and regulatory obstacles lowered against expanding housing.
But supply and demand works poorly to increase competition that would lower prices when natural obstacles impede supply.
I'm not conversing further on this, since I think I'm missing parts of the continuity of your points.
Have a great day!
You make a solid argument, as usual. If New Yorkers have any sense, they'll back Eric Adams—flaws and all. Have they already forgotten the mess under DeBlasio? Progressive liberalism didn’t just set the city back—it’s been a slow rot from the inside. It's not just bad policy, it's a problem that needs to be dealt with, decisively.
Thank you! Love your writing, the fraud these Lefties present needs to be pointed out over and over again!
Like a scorpion that stings, Democrats and their supporters in the media lie. Each and every day. It's what they do.
I'm a reformed and red ( almost black) pilled progressive.

They had to or the entire upper DNC would have gone to jail, and the Democratic party destroyed.
Too bad that didn't happen, we would have avoided the entire COVID BIOWEAPON
Have you considered writing a book? I for one would love to read it!!
I have.
But I'd have to write under an alias and go off the grid to avoided committing Arkancide.
Completely agree - it’s also part of “oligarchy / rich people are evil” mindset that is being taught in schools
How’d you find a photo of Mamdani NOT smiling??? I suspect AI!
Two things:
First, it’s not identity theft, it’s called cultural appropriation. The left hates when anyone else does it—like a white kid dressing up like an Indian with a feathered headdress.

But with AOC and Commiedani, it's (D)ifferent.
How so?
Their last names end in a (D).
Ah. Followed by a (D)--gotcha.
Well, yeah. Until recently, anyway. The MSM seems to be moving away from the crazies. Not sure why or how they suddenly got religion, but that seems to be the case at the moment.
