Welcome to Progressive Politics! A place for news updates and political discussion from a left perspective. Conservatives and centrists are welcome just try and keep it civil :)
(Sidebar still a work in progress post recommendations if you have them such as reading lists)
I can only hope, and I hope mamdani inspired a new decade of socialist resurgence in elections, not just here but in LATAM, Africa, Europe and Asia
Liberals in shock at effective policy choice 🙄
Don't worry guys. I'm sure the democrats will learn this this time around...
Center right cumuo who is also a sex pest
The funny thing is that The Betoota Advocate is a satirical newspaper - but this is not satire
What I'm not shocked about is that they're so out of touch with what we want.
they're aware of what we need; they're just placing their desire to become richer ahead of it.
My expectation is that this will motivate them to pull another Ross Perot. They will spend all of their time working with Republicans between this election and the next dreaming up institutional hurdles to a socialist making headway in a political campaign, just like they made it institutionally impossible for third parties to sniff a presidency.
If Mamdani actually does try to do the things he says he will (which I doubt) those efforts to institutionally hamper non-conservative candidacies will be doubled.
Well well well, looks like not being republican lite does the trick
