He answered exactly how I would have answered. No one is catering to a group of people who chose to sit out last election or vote uncommitted. Anyone who did that shouldn’t be taken seriously.

OK, this is a particular lane of slopulism that I’m passionate about, and it’s actually really dumb and bad and doesn’t understand how groceries work at all.
Mayor Mamdani: Since 2019, food prices have soared at grocery stores around the country by roughly 30%. Wages have not kept up. Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores.

Perfect post. 10/10 and exactly right.
Imagine if Stevens owned expensive rental property in Tel Aviv?
This is just too good. Abdul is wealthier than Stevens and does business in a country known for its human rights atrocities but Stevens is the corporate genocider.

This kind of violent, demonizing language is one reason why I don't want Abdul El-Sayed anywhere near public office. He believes in authoritarianism, not pluralism, and one gets one's way through threats and bullying rather than persuasion. He's not much different than Trump.

Did AIPAC do any of the things I’m about to list? If the answer is no then you should probably figure out a different path because your bs doesn’t work on us🤷🏾♀️
Take away Civil Rights?
Take away voting rights?
Drag Black/Brown Folks out of their homes
Force a BW to be an incubator

Remember when Abdul El Sayed justified the Michigan Synagogue terrorist attack as "Hurt people, hurt people."

Phone banking for Bernie sponsored by DSA ironically turned me off both of them. I was calling black voters in the south, and they kept asking about systemic racism, and all my script had was, "A rising tide lifts all boats" platitudes. I decided to learn all I could and it made me quit the DSA lol
