        And worse than an antizionist DSA member, no? He just is a Zionist for the love of the game instead of money

        Don’t worry, I know he’s the lesser of two evils (now that Mamdani coronated him over Avilés). Biden better than Trump and all that

          Why don’t you run for mayor of New York if you’re so sure of what is to be done?

            Do you realize how much like democrat-speak that sounds? But interesting that you’ve chosen to die on the Zionist hill

          Biden better than Trump and all that

          i dislike this comparison because there’s a meaningful difference between “nothing will fundamentally change” and the socdem “we should improve things somewhat”

            True, it’s national socialism, we’ll give you buses and trains that run on time, in exchange for continuing the Zionism and imperialism

                That’s why he can support lander and keep Tisch on, right, because surrounding yourself with Zionists doesn’t matter when you’re only the smol bean mayor of New York City
