Agreed but the top comment of this reply chain is so disingenuous. It's like someone posting "Hey guys, its my birthday!", then they pop in to be contrarian and say "don't forget you are going to die someday."

I don't get why they left a comment like this. Are they upset Mamdani won? If they actually like Mamdani they could have said "I hope the American people continue to support people like Mamdani if or when it comes out that they aren't some perfect superhero, and are just human like all of us".

Specifically the comment focuses on the left and attacks them as being non-compromising, and acts like this is a fact, when the left has shown its self to be quite compromising time and time again.

Remember its not left vs right, but top vs bottom and the only attacks done should be on the top. Anything else is divisive and helps the billionaires stay in power.
