    People who are saying “Well, I’d arrest Netanyahu!” are doing electoral liberalism, ironically. The problem isn’t Mamdani’s insufficient personal discipline or political seriousness. It’s that you cannot turn the office ofnthe mayor of NYC into a vehicle capable of arresting US-allied world leaders. The power of all electoral offices are tightly restrained to prevent based commie shit and stay within the limits of capitalist imperialism no matter how badly an individual in office might want to do otherwise.
