Socialist President In America Not That Far Off If You Take Close Look

An avowed socialist, pro-Palestine, America-hating Muslim who became an American citizen the year The Incredibles 2 was released is now a whisker away from becoming the mayor of New York City. 

Is this our vibrant democracy working as intended? Or is our democracy being gamed by people who have found loophole after loophole and are slowly, doggedly stitching up the country like a burlap sack with us in it?

I keep hearing the haunting line from No Country For Old Men in my head: “If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?”

Zohran Mamdani’s policy platform seems inspired by Pol Pot and BLM. He wants to use race to determine property taxes. He wants to abolish “billionaires” (unclear if he plans to do away with them by inspiring them to move out of the country or by summary execution). He wants to redistribute wealth so illegal immigrants can comfortably live in the most expensive city in the country. (RELATED: Surrendering Blue Cities Isn’t Common Sense – It’s A Fatal Error)

He’s a basic Marxist in trendy intersectional clothes; a male AOC with less baggage. He’s interested in the same goal commies have been screeching about for decades: the complete and utter overthrow of the evil capitalist American system and the conquest of settled land they seem to think was unjustly stolen from their allies.

The right is appropriately horrified. Panicked, even. How could this happen? Was it his friendly and harmless smile? Was it his viral TikTok campaigns? Can current mayor Eric Adams (now the sane choice) stop him? Why do white idiot leftists keep voting for their own demise? Are they dumb, evil, or brainwashed by college professors? And what does it mean for the country?

President Momdani

You laugh — but look at the electorate….

What it means is this: the exact same corrupt, cynical system that hands priceless American citizenships to foreigners like Mamdani — an anti-white racist who hates his new country — has also produced millions of native born Americans who think he’s correct in his withering assessment of their own homeland. If they’re white, they also think they’re part of the problem, and voting for someone like Mamdani offers them a simple way out of their uncomfortable predicament of being a “privileged white” in 2025.

However, his focus on the backbreaking reality of life in New York City for all but the very wealthy — the same unaffordability crisis that helped Donald Trump win reelection — was the kicker. As Emily Jashinsky pointed out in her article for Unherd, “When Mamdani says people in New York are ‘struggling to afford even a shred of dignity in their lives,’ it resonates, and makes people more willing to take a chance on something new.”

No one can afford life in New York City under the permanent rule of establishment Democrat governors, mayors, and city councils. So young voters who hate Republicans and would never vote for a conservative, naturally, want to try the guy promising to lower the cost of living. They never put it together that the liberals they’ve been electing for years largely caused the cost-of-living crisis with sky-high taxes, “sustainable” energy, and more. But they have figured out that boring old Dems like leathery Andrew Cuomo are not ever going to deliver anything they can use. 

There is only one place for them to run after rejecting “both sides,” and it is right into the warm embrace of a fresh-faced communist vowing to take money from rich white people and give it to them. They have no idea of the horrors that lay in store for a society who pursues this ideology to its end point. 

Mamdani plans to “lower costs” by massively hiking taxes, including property taxes, on the wealthy and subsidizing things like groceries (with taxpayer money) to artificially lower the prices. But what these people find out fast is that you eventually run out of other people’s money. Socialism never creates wealth; it just moves it around. There’s only one system that’s ever worked for creating wealth, but it feels broken to millennials because even if they work, New York is too expensive. 

News flash: it’s always been an incredibly expensive place to live. New York City is famously one of the most insanely expensive places in the world to live. I lived there and I never would now. Say what you will about California but I enjoy not living in a one-bedroom 430 square foot walk-up.

Why does he even matter to anyone outside the city? Because it doesn’t matter if Mamdani does indeed become mayor, if he fails miserably, if prices keep rising, if crime gets worse, and if people eventually realize they made a terrible mistake.

Doesn’t matter. The political earthquake has already struck and shattered the status quo, because he is brown and won an election against a famous politician. The last person to do that was Barack Obama in 2008. His campaign is now the model moving forward for democrats desperate to start winning again. As I type this, they are actively scouring the ranks of local and state politicians and aldermen and school boards looking for the unicorn they think they need: a Zohran Mamdani who was born here, so he or she can run for president in a cycle or two. 

And if they weren’t born here, who cares? They can find a compliant state employee, maybe in Hawaii, to print out a birth certificate to prove citizenship. Maybe that state employee will very conveniently coincidentally die in a small plane crash before having to answer any questions. 

In other words, New York City has chosen the form of our eventual destructor, and it’s not the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man; it’s something far more threatening and much less sweet.
