The Mandami effect

[iluvatar5150]

A thread to discuss all the effects of the new Mayor

Parents began planning to take their kids out of NYC schools minutes after Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral win​

Since the results of Tuesday’s election came in, school placement consultant Christopher Rim told The Post he’s had no less than 23 clients reach out to him. They’re looking to relocate — and they want his help getting their kids into elite private high schools and middle schools in other states.

“Within the first 30 minutes of AP announcing Mamdani’s victory, I got three messages from families looking to move,” said Rim, founder and CEO of Command Education.

In a city of 8.5 million, they found 23 hand-wringing reactionaries.

That’s barely enough to field a single softball game.

In a city of that size, 680,000 think they could beat up a lion.

Can you guys at least make up your minds and pick if it’s communism or Islamism he’s supposed to be instituting when he gets into office? It’s hard to tell which one you guys are more irrationally scared of happening in a city, I’m pretty sure the right had been railing against for years now well before Mamdani came onto the scene.

Mamdani has the backing of both Marxist and Islamic organizations--the type George Soros funds. I expect defunding the police will have the most immediate effect and I feel sorry for the future victims. We've seen what happened it other major cities.

It’s the perfect opportunity to scream about both simultaneously. He’s going to collectivize Wall Street and force them to pray towards Mecca.

Can’t wait to hear the Islamic call to prayer blasting through Times Square.

But you need their money. Economic equality is more important, and so is payback for their crimes.

Just like the poor there will always be the rich. So if some are driven of more will appear. Maybe when other people step up to be the builders of the economy they may be less personal profit oriented.

This is where you devolve into scaremongering.

While decrying religion as an opiate to maintain the bourgeoisie.

Incoming atheist communist Islamic caliphate.

This is the second thread about Mandami created in less than three hours. However, this is not unexpected. Over the next four years, it appears that conservatives have identified a new figure to criticize in order to influence public opinion—portraying Mondami as a socialist who intends to redistribute wealth and implement sharia law in the United States.

Republicans might try to promote Mandami and alarm Americans into voting for them in next year's election, but that approach will likely fail.

Most Americans outside New York City aren't concerned about its mayor—they care more about grocery prices.

Most people do not compare current grocery prices with those from 2022 or calculate the percentage change; instead, they notice that they can no longer afford all the items they used to purchase. They observe that there is less food available for their families and often seek someone to hold responsible. Typically, they are more likely to direct their concerns toward national leadership rather than distant local officials.

Many Hispanic voters supported President Trump due to his pledges to improve the economy. However, some are now witnessing the deportation of family members or friends—such as spouses, mothers, grandfathers, or neighbors—as a result of current immigration policies. They will not blame Mandami and his socialist policy in NYC for family separation which effected their own family and friend; instead, they will hold responsible the person who implemented the policy.

Youth voters who supported the GOP in 2024 and struggle to find jobs after graduation are unlikely to blame Mondami, since they recognize the US economy is influence by the current White House resident.

A struggling mother won't examine complicated congressional procedures to assign blame for the shutdown—she'll notice that while she can't afford groceries, the President is spending $300 million on a ballroom.

While it's not entirely fair to blame the President for all of the above, but that's how many Americans will perceive it.

If the GOP believes they can distract the American people from important issues by focusing on Mandami the socialist, they may find themselves surprised after the November elections. next year

Islamism. Look at Iran. The Muslims were best buds and allies with the Communists, then when they gained power, the Muslims killed the Communists.

That's what happens in the U.K. People who would rather be sleeping get woken up at 5:00 a.m. for the first of 5 calls.

Why look at Iran instead of say… Qatar? We’re still on pretty good terms with the Qataris, right? We don’t assume they are all on this “death to America” tip the Iranians have been on since we deposed their government and made way for the current regime to take over.

Fortunately NYC is already known as “the city that never sleeps.”

From what I can tell Qatar is devious, they play both sides against the middle. Thank goodness we have an astute negotiator in charge here.

Yes, we have:

I stayed in the Kasbah in Tangier and unknown to me the speaker for a large part of the city was high up just across from my window. I woke up to that blasting sound which seemed to come from all directions, had no idea what was going on.

I stayed in the Kasbah...

Did you rock it?
