Do you stupid far right-wingnut knuckle-dragging fat fucks still want to say WaPo is "radical far left"? You are fucking idiots, but of course you always were.

"Zohran Mamdani’s victory is bad for New York and the Democratic Party"

Opinion
by the Editorial Board

Zohran Mamdani, the charismatic 33-year-old who is now the front-runner to be
the next mayor of New York, might seem like a breath of fresh air for a
Democratic Party struggling to move past its aging establishment. In fact,
New Yorkers should be worried that he would lead Gotham back to the bad old
days of civic dysfunction, and Democrats should fear that he will discredit
their next generation of party leaders, almost all of whom are better than
this democratic socialist.

Adept at social media and voter mobilization, Mamdani claimed the most first-
pick votes in the New York Democratic mayoral primary as the leading
alternative to Andrew M. Cuomo. The contest became a referendum on the
disgraced ex-governor as he sought a comeback four years after resigning amid
allegations of sexual harassment. Cuomo, a throwback to a bygone era of
machine politics, should have stayed retired instead of clearing the field of
potentially more appealing center-left candidates — and opening the way for
Mamdani to nab disillusioned voters.

Now, a man who believes that capitalism is “theft” is in line to lead the
country’s biggest city and the world’s financial capital. His signature ideas
are “city-owned grocery stores,” no bus fares, freezing rent on 1 million
regulated apartments and increasing the minimum wage to $30. No doubt these
might strike some voters as tempting ideas. But, as with so many proposals
from America’s far left, the trade-offs would hurt the people they are
supposed to help.

A massive minimum wage would depress low-skilled employment. His rent freeze
would reduce the housing supply and decrease its quality. Cutting bus fares
would leave a transit funding hole that, unless somehow filled, would erode
service. Meanwhile, the grocery business operates on thin margins, and his
plan for city-run stores would likely lead to fewer options, poor service and
shortages, as privately-run stores closed rather than try to compete with
city-subsidized shops.

That could have been written by Ronald Reagan or any Chamber of Commerce. That editorial is flatly saying "Capitalism good, socialism bad." That's what it's saying. But you stupid knuckle-dragging right-wingnut Nazi fat fucks insist on bleating that the WaPo is "radical far left."

You are fucking idiots.
