Opinion | Mamdani’s Victory Is Less Significant Than You Think

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

Exxon funded thinktanks to spread climate denial in Latin America, documents reveal Texas-based fossil fuel company financed Atlas Network in attempt to derail UN-led climate treaty process

They lied as well as knew!

the daily caller published a call to violence of the left yesterday, a news organization that has connections to the heritage foundation

“Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it.”

This is what strong messaging and a genuinely effective economic program gets you. It's incredibly simple, and to the democrats who are *confused* about this success, it's never too late to resign! (see Cuomo.)

It's a slaughter and I'm here for it let's go

It is the same old story: every wealthy critic of capitalism is a hypocrite, every poor one is just resentful and angry. Thus, there no good faith criticism of capitalism.

the reaction to Mamdani's campaign is clear proof that centrism is a reactionary ideology, and has nothing to do with a pragmatic desire to win.

...it feels like just yesterday that Biden took us out of Afghanistan. The war on terror will never end

The ordinary questions you might ask: Is Elon Musk a government employee? Are his lieutenants? Does he personally hold a security clearance and do his “lieutenants”? Have they all undergone a background check? Are they subject to foreign influence? Have they ever done a sieg heil on stage?

wondering when the media will start using Mar-a-Lago in place of Washington as our state metonym

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

i love that every contemporary right-wing argument boils down to "lets get rid of this vital, load-bearing piece of society because i personally don't understand its function"

how very conservative of them!

I like durée and am broke 🙏
