The label we’re gathering under is progressives, it’s mostly leftists but you leave the praxis at home and recognize that no one is going to read a pamphlet
Turns out, when you have good messaging, most people are on board with the practical changes we could make today. Mumdani is a rockstar at it
The Zohran Mamdani campaign has peeled the curtain back from American politics and exposed how much of it has been kayfabe all along. And the people writing the scripts are not happy about it.
I hope it continues, while I know he will win, I hope he also succeeds against the ringmasters and production executives who have manufactured our reality.
I don’t think it’s kayfabe so much as a bunch of consultant brained fucktards desperately grasping at power, but also having no idea why they’re doing this anymore
But Mumdani has shown us that the people really are desperate for leftism. They want what we want, they just need crisp and simple messaging
It is true that far, far more Americans (particularly in larger population centers) want more social and economic benefits from their tax money and aren’t being distracted by the culture war nonsense.
But I do believe the establishment democrat platform is basically owned and operated by the same forces that are empowering the right. AIPAC for one, the rest are a who’s-who of corporate interests and financial institutions.
Creating an opponent against your own cause, but one you can actually control and manage is a trick as old as time itself for fooling people into supporting your side while thinking they’re opposing it. This is why sites like reddit are basically under state control, even though you think it’s swinging left or liberal, the entire spread of narratives there are tightly managed and the closer you look, the more apparent it becomes. (Look up Eglin Air force Base + Reddit for a real tinfoil-clad rabbit hole.)
