ive certainly read comments i would call uncritical support; i cant really think of a post that would qualify, but tbh mamdani has been constantly backpedaling so hard since he won the primary that even the remaining succdem contingent on hb would be embarrassed trying to post them in a positive manner
If he manages a rent freeze and free buses he’ll have exceeded my expectations. If not, I still can’t imagine he’d be worse than Cuomo or Adams. Let’s relitigate after he assumes office in 40 days, assuming the website hasn’t exploded by then lmao

cuomo and adams wouldnt hurt the reputation of socialism that is just starting to be rehabilitated in amerikkka (which btw is one of mamdani’s worst faults, calling maduro and castro “dictators” is horrendous and is probably the worst thing you could do during a military buildup targeting them). in b4 “so i should have voted for cuomo or adams!?!?!?” no you should bombard the headquarters of the NYC DSA until they capitulate and overthrow settler majority caucus so that they stop pushing opportunists like aoc and mamdani and more importantly have the ability to control their electeds and keep them from doing dumbass shit like this
AFAIK the reputation of socialism in America is zero and imo it will be much more affected by his actual term in office than by the reactionary comments he makes two months prior about foreign politics (as a mayor).
If he can help some people out, good. If he can’t, okay, we already know electoralism is a dead end. Muslim Socialist Mayor in NYC go brrrrr
socialism is starting to be rehabilitated among young people, a really widespread betrayal by a self proclaimed socialist could be potentially very damaging
you’re not nearly as terminally online as you think you are if you missed all of the threads with people arguing about mamdani
I’ve seen people arguing about Mamdani ad nauseum; I have yet to see a post/comment uncritically supporting him.
Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the accusation of not being terminally online
