Truly Evergreen Meme with Trump and MAGA:
Question: You are an expert, I am not. But I wonder if builders are trying to avoid looking like "soviet-bloc" housing while keeping construction costs low? (So, actually building Khrushchevka style apartments, but trying to hide it?)

As an Atheist Humanist, I'm kind of glad to see that religious "others" and "nones" voted overwhelmingly for Mamdani in NYC. . . and I think it's pretty Damning that a majority of Catholics and Plurality of Protestants ACTUALLY voted for a sexual predator instead of a Muslim.
![A screenshot of a webpage showing a graph of NYC 2025 Mayoral election results broken down by religious affiliation:
Headline: Most Muslim voters supported Mamdani
Percent of NYC Voters who identify as...
Catholic: 27%, Protestant: 20%, Jewish: 16%, Muslim: 4%, Other: 10%, None: 23%
Percent of NYC voters in each category who cast a ballot for (Mamdami / Cuomo )...
Catholic: 33% / 52%
Protestant: 42% / 49%
Jewish: 32% / 64%
Muslim: 92% / 6%
Other: 62% / 32%
None: 76% / 20%
Protestant refers to "Protestants" and "Other Christians". The 2025 AP Voter Poll conducted by SSRS includes representative samples of more than 17,000 registered voters in California, New Jersey, New York City, and Virginia. Percentages may not add up to 100% due to rounding.

Let's talk about how if you are willing to sacrifice 2.5% of the population once, and then are willing to do that over and over, you end up sacrificing far more than 2.5% of the population. This is called "divide and conquer":
