Mamdani is a socialist like myself. He’s using the Democrat party because it’s the most useful tool available to him. But he’s not a neoliberal Democrat.
I’m a registered independent. I’m not this neoliberal you’ve concocted to debate with. I know Mamdani’s got a lock on the Mayoral race as the Democratic nominee. And I don’t gatekeep who is in the Democratic Party.
Lol, your argument is to refuse to vote for anyone who isn’t as far left as Mamdani. You’re not arguing to think globally or act locally. You’re larping on the internet.
What if I told you that any genuinely Left Irish Republicanism, even from the Irish Diaspora, requires calling for a Free Palestine? We have arrived at that same human collective conclusion while allowing for Pride in our own identity to participate in cementing that.
But you’ll argue against voting for candidates who aren’t fascists in future election. Even if that means the fascists will continue to genocide the people you pretend to care about. No thanks.

Again, I voted the same way you did. It was self defense. I’m pissed off at Democrats for using this to consistently concede towards the Right for decades, but I don’t have the power to create a better choice. And further, I felt that every piece of rhetoric to bring comrades with me? Was taken from me by the liberals who wanted my vote.
How much of this was media “dissonance”? We really should unpack. Not to declare blame, but to prepare for it next time.
Comrade, we’ve been arguing from what is actually two sides of the same position. I’d rather focus on what’s next than what’s past for its own sake, and that’s how you came off to me.
I’d rather focus on what gets people excited - Mamdani, rn.
If I may be permitted a moment to disappear up my own asshole: I just deleted several paragraphs unpacking something I’m going to describe as “post-anarcho-nihilism.”
The Acceleration is locked in - just look at Texas flooding again. Again again. Use anything and everything you can for collective human dignity and survival.
And even I vote Blue, holding my nose the whole way. But sometimes I’ll fall short in bringing sources of valid, quality info to my community about when its time to bring them to the ballot box for a holding-action on that deepening Acceleration.

What do you suggest we do better next time?
