    He was always an obvious op. Kind of insane and sad that anyone assumed anything different. The western left is embarrassing.

      It was not always obvious to me. I wonder if maybe politicians (and everyone else) have to make compromises to get things done?

        Would you support a politician who compromises with Zionists so much that it doesn’t even look like compromise anymore? It just looks like straight up support? If it’s not obvious to you then you need to educate yourself more. This is not new and we have been warned about this exact situation.

          The idea that Mamdani is a spineless suck up seems absurd to me. To even make that claim is to totally lose my attention

    Article is actually kinda fair - much moreso than the headline would suggest. Nonetheless, “many” gets contradicted by the author himself:

    Unfortunately the anger being directed at Mamdani from outside the DSA, though justified, is coming from a small vanguard that still lacks the ability to lead the forces necessary to impose an agenda on the city and the state.
