NYC: It's Time Somebody Tried Real Socialism™

The only reason why socialism hasn’t worked anywhere it has been tried is that it wasn’t implemented correctly. 

Well, New York City may get the chance to prove that a young, good-looking, terrorist-loving socialist can make their city run like a top. 





That is what NYC Democratic voters decided to try, giving Zohran Mamdani a victory in the race for the Democratic Party nominee in this year’s mayoral election.

Mamdani took on the Democratic Party establishment, which poured tens of millions of dollars into the failed campaign of Andrew Cuomo to take the nomination for the top slot, and he outfoxed them all. He has proven that good looks, a winning smile, and a dose of socialism will work wonders when you are out campaigning with AOC. 

Mamdani has it all. Support for Hamas, the ability to reach out to the growing antisemitic vote, completely insane economic ideas, and the confidence born of being raised privileged.

In the contest between the old Bill Clinton-style Democrats and the new AOC/Squad-style, the latter is the new face of the Democratic Party coalition. 





Mamdani’s win in the Democratic primary does not, as some people seem to think, automatically make him a shoo-in, but it’s close enough for government work. There will be several independents on the ballot, and Curtis Silwa is running as a Republican. 

But who are we kidding? Mamdani is likely to win in the general election. When asked who the most successful mayor in the country is, he named Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, whose #1 accomplishment is releasing illegal alien child molesters back onto the streets before ICE can detain them. 

Mamdani believes that the solution to rising prices is rent freezes and city-run grocery stores, because these policies have proven to work so well everywhere they have been tried. 





If and when they elect him, New Yorkers may wind up longing for the days of another phony politician: Bill de Blasio, who changed his name from the less euphonious Warren Wilhelm, Jr. This time, they will be treated to a man of many accents instead of a man of many names, with even more insane policy preferences than the prior mayor. 

Democrats are long past the point of caring about anything but appearances. Everything is now performative. Mamdani projects well, pretends to care deeply about things about which he knows nothing, and has a pretty smile. The results of his actual policies don’t matter. 





This is the new, young Democratic Party. Expect AOC to take on Chuck Schumer, using the same formula that swept Mamdani to victory. It’s radical chic, the next generation. 

The big losers will be the middle class, of course. The wealthy will either just move or adapt, shielding themselves with the privilege that can only come from having oodles of money, and the socialists will shower the hoi polloi with subsidies and blame everything that goes wrong on “the rich.” 

The middle class are screwed. Leaving is very hard, so many of them will be doomed to seeing their cities deteriorate. 





The race was a perfect microcosm of what is wrong with the Democratic Party. Democrats were forced to choose between a grandma killer and an antisemitic socialist. 

The socialist was better looking and smoother talking. And he spoke to the young people who the Democrats have intentionally undereducated.
