The Nation’s breathless cheerleading for Mamdani’s socialist takeover proves their agenda isn’t policy—it’s ideological arson. His “affordability” platform? A Trojan horse for bankrupting landlords with rent freezes, collapsing housing markets, and replacing basic services with activist-run councils. The DSA’s “universal childcare” funded by tax hikes? Another wealth redistribution scam that’ll chase businesses out of NYC.
Mamdani’s victory isn’t progress—it’s New Yorkers being guinea pigs for a Marxist playbook that failed everywhere from Venezuela to CUNY’s budget. His “city-run grocery stores” and $30 wage mandates are economic malpractice dressed as compassion.
The only thing being “crushed” here is the middle class—while Mamdani’s DSA cadres build their managed society on the ashes of what worked.
