@Rolexeo Socialism cannot survive without Capitalism.

@Greenthumb At least it will disenfranchise the rich.

@ReptilianFromPlanetCrush The White House is an example of that

@ReptilianFromPlanetCrush They call it Section 8 housing. Maybe the mayor will call it Section "10" housing to make the people feel better about it.

This thread sums up why all housing should be public. If we forced rich people to live in public housing, then public housing would improve real fast.

@Greenthumb Thats how I would do it. But I am not used to Americans planning long term.. Imagine if the government have bought out all the dinosaurs in the financial markets instead of bailing them out during the GFC? All they had to do was print money, which they have been doing all along..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman why do u hate rich ppl and americans and mr trump?

@Elessar I know multiple people that live there and are directly benefiting already from his stewardship.

Fact

@Elessar I think you missed the point, that for Republicans, things improving for the ordinary working folk IS the Apocalypse,,😷

@whowasthatmaskedman True that

@Rolexeo Yes, government run housing will be much better.👍

@SunshineGirl Mandamis people are telling tenants to complain about everything from dim lights to noise. Do you want to bet that Mandami is doing this in order to take over properties?

@TexChik 💯

@Crazywaterspring who would be foolish enough to buy them?

@Frostcloud uh oh someone's upset i spelled his name correctly

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Ain’t no millionaires or celebrities selling off their second and third homes that they own in NYC. Not a single one.

Maybe a few are changing their desired residency status but none of them are giving up what they got there….

That’s just a delusional take that totally discounts reality.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Celebrities are fleeing is bullshit unless you can actually name them and provide evidence. Screaming “GTFO” doesn’t turn your made-up claim into a fact. It just shows you’ve run out of arguments.

Not that you ever have any evidence to back up anything you're saying 😂🕺🏻

@Greenthumb he is italien. he doesnt know stuff about the holy land of america. he is commonist too

@RachelLia2003 America is literally named after a guy from my country lmao, it's purely thanks to us if it exists in its current denomination. Literally means "land of Amerigo" (Vespucci)

What is a commonist? They still haven't taught you how to spell?

@hunkalove They’re not selling anything. They just tie shit up in courts as they reap the rent.

This is something that he sees and knows, which is why he’s advocating for tenants to use escrow accounts. He hasn’t actually told anyone to just stop paying rent.

He wants tenants to withhold the rent in a legal manner that will force these corporate entities into the overdue maintenance.

It’s all legalese that normal people are unaware of and that these corporate entities use daily to fuck people over.

@HikingMan correct, the city will force them into receivership.

@hunkalove The next owner will be the city. Wait and see. This is what anti capitalists do. It will be a uptopia, right?

@HikingMan Wow, come on. What are you afraid of? Did I hurt your feelings? It's just words. Words can't hurt you unless you let them.

@HikingMan you sound like you are pro censorship. You will be a good socialist.

@HikingMan hello commonist. im not him and hes not me. so stop BULLYING

@MethDozer I don't know any of them so how could I answer? I don't agree with your "shoot them all" mentality.

@Greenthumb you dont need to know them personaly. Or at all to answer the question.

@Greenthumb I don't agree with you're " the sky is falling" accusation over a mayor encouraging the little people to flex their muscle against rent seekers bleeding them dry.

@Greenthumb “Give it a year or two” is just another way of saying you have no evidence.

And your personal "insults" are irrelevant: if your argument depends on predicting a future conspiracy instead of showing evidence for it now, calling me an “anti-capitalist” doesn’t magically make it true.

Sorry that NYC seems to be working for the majority ;)

@Waveney it always starts off wonderful. Study Venezuela.

@Greenthumb You truly have nothing, do you.

Study Venezuela” isn’t evidence that NYC is going to become Venezuela. NYC isn’t a socialist state, and pointing at Venezuela doesn’t prove your claim about Mamdani, especially when you still haven’t produced a single piece of evidence for the conspiracy you started with.

@RachelLia2003
Learn the difference - or blindly parrot what your cult leader tells you to parrot

@newjaninev2 yea some polen-jew author tellin stuff about commonism🙄 u tellin me to trust em yews🙄

@newjaninev2 yes under socialism the politicians and their friends will be rich. Most will be lower middle class, but they will have their needs met by the government. But don't worry the powerful will always be nice and do the right thing. There will be no corruption, or misappropriation of tax dollars. It will all be for the people. 😉

@ReptilianFromPlanetCrush Yup, Mamdani is a rich class-traitor, which is the only kind of class-traitor I like. He's willing to raise his own taxes so that NYC can be better. That's based.

@BohoBabe dude has lived a posh ass lifestyle just like his family. he has benefited way more than me or any of my family from capitalism. he is a socialist just like all the other rich socialists in this country. pure self hated and guilt from living a sweet life.

@ReptilianFromPlanetCrush Good. Whatever the reason, he's doing the right thing. I wish more rich people knew how lucky they were and wanted to help the working-class. Mamdani is a real one.
