Service vs leadership is a false dichotomy. You can (and should) be a leader who serves. Mamdani is serving NYers in a leadership position. He makes the calls and has the responsibility for decisions that serve his constituents.
You can also be a servant who leads. the difference is that centrist democrats don’t want to serve or lead. They want to rule over a compliant electorate that isn’t permitted to question their actions or judgement.

Just like the right does.
