Morbidly funny to imagine what it would take to deal with the NYPD. Not to rain on anybody’s parade, but I do not see a Democrat organizing red guards to arrest the cops when they rebel.

Thanks for this. That is interesting. So he does state a commitment to a sort of “full socialist” slogan, if in passing

Is that part of his campaign or at least recent? I have heard he made some Marxist remarks on social media years ago?

What is the reason to believe Mamdani has an ideological commitment to “real socialism” (which I only put in quotes because it can mean such different things), even accepting he can’t do it alone, which is certainly true.

do nothing, win I think the Chinese Century already began

Well, Zohran is a social democrat committed to the democratic party (even if its big-bourgeois leaders openly want to crush him), so he might be pretty cooperative with the pig army, really

However, cops seem to mostly be pretty fascist in beliefs, they will probably hate him and obstruct his administration as much as they can.

I certainly would join DSA, and have been involved in some efforts to launch such an org in my country. Seems that the marxist factions inside DSA have way more vitality and potential than the old national communist parties. Potential for productive splits that give birth to revolutionary mass parties from DSA => leading to a meaningful vanguard seems higher than CPUSA becoming a vanguard worthy of the name. The Bolsheviks were born of a party split amirite?

Agreed. I suggest the free tier of chatGPT voice mode as a rubber ducky - prompted something like, “ask me software dev interview behavioural questions”.

I didn’t even really bother with getting input on my answers from the LLM, you can reflect on your own how you sounded. It was just good practice being asked a random unexpected question and coming up with a good response.
