This gets particularly funny in certain leftist circles in LA (Left NIMBYs) where they'll say shit like this...and then offer up US Hukou on steroids as their solution to the housing crisis.
Saw someone repost this but, folks, this is literally the liberal position. It doesn't get more liberal.

Zohran won because he had beliefs and was sincere in them.
You can *win* as a centrist. But you have to again actually *hold* those beliefs and be genuine in your belief that your policies will help people.
Sincerity can exist with centrism, but it doesn't exist in Mothership consulting.

Democrats seem to think the pivoting to the center makes them most electable but all it does it piss *everyone* off.
Having beliefs/a backbone and being authentic is the best way to win elections. People are fucking sick of croneyism and corporate suck ups and that is why Zohran cruised to victory

I fear progressives are going to learn the wrong things from Mamdani's campaign, and it's going to fester into a lot of angry people in 2026/2028 when the most unlikeable dipshits (but leftishly) try to run for office only to get BTFO because they see talking to the electorate as beneath them.

IANAL but I feel that hucking a sandwich at someone is a textbook case of assault and battery, but the guy got off because of gross prosecutorial incompetence, overcharging, and a bit of jury nullification.

Look, people are reading way too hard into why this World Series between a large market Goliath and Canada's loveable underdogs that went 7 very entertaining games where Goliath appeared to be losing did better than last year's NBA finals between 2 tiny markets where 1 team's star played injured.

I guarantee that the people sending threats to IKF/Hoffman etc are sports bettors, and I will *never* find it not funny watching videos of sports bettors crashing out when they lose big.

All the jokes aside, I think Bronny James is fine for what he is, pick 55 in the drafted taken mostly for commercial purposes, but is a hustle D guy with potential shooting upside if he can gain confidence.
Like, I don't know what else you'd expect out of the 55th pick.

Fundamentally, this stance comes from a place of extreme privilege (or stupidity). You can whine about that all you want, but ultimately, in an electoral government, *somebody* has to win.
So unless you *truly* believe that both options would lead to identical outcomes...

I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates aren’t addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

Honestly, one of the more underrated bad things about Trump II is how much of a disappointment Bernie has become because he took his mask off on the tired white working class anti-immigration bullshit.
Xenophobia is still xenophobia, and it's bullshit even if said by the working poor or a union.

The left cannot survive if it doesn't learn how to tell the populist elements of the labor movement that "got mine, fuck you" is not a valid political position.
Political opinions are not automatically sacrosanct just because a member of the working class holds them.

By the way, all the ridiculous defense of a white guy with a concerning history and a Nazi tattoo does not help the allegation that there is a lot of latent misogyny, homophobia and transphobia on the left.

Look, I know 2 guys who can identify every Nazi symbol out there by sight.
One has a PhD in history.
The other is a tattoo artist.

Look, if "Nobody is free until everyone is free" goes out the window because one aesthetically working class dude appears to have some problematic views on women and minorities and may have a Nazi tattoo... then don't get mad when people call you both a LARPer and a class reductionist.
