Annie Lowrey, wife of Ezra Klein, gets an Atlantic Cuomo-apologist hit piece (with a scary illustration) against Zohran Mamdani, and is against ranked choice voting.

Merry Christmas to everybody except people who are mean to animals

remember today, before you laugh at kids for still believing in santa claus, just remember there are grown ass adults who still believe cows milk is for humans. happy christmas all 🎅🐮

No one in the world needs cows milk but a baby cow. Text on image of a baby cow.

Ignore these self-styled "lefty animal lover" types, they're all full of shit hypocrites like their rightwing counterparts. Unless the animal in question is a dog or a cat they don't give a single toss about their welfare.
I wouldn't count on him if I was a group he claims to be an ally of, either.

Wouldn't be surprised if they're just a Russian troll or something anyway. Oh well. Hopefully someone else sees this and decides to choose kindness.

Good for you. I mostly care that it contains cruelty. Not to mention the puss and blood. Here, check this out and get back to me if you want. Thanks :)
