    He is not garbage dude he is still a leftist and he is going to be the mayor of NYC he won’t be dealing with any foreign affairs anyways it doesn’t really matter. Also specifically not hiring Zionists could alienate a large portion of the voter base in NYC. Running as a socialist and being in the lead is still massive progress. Also do you have the link to the article I would like to read it in its entirety not just the headline

      Google the article. No, you’ve used up enough of my time. Otherwise I could ask you to pinpoint the part of my explanation of how this man supports Zionism where I said that I was desperate for anything resembling leftist politics to succeed in the core imperialist countries. I’m not. It is a political tradition that was invented to give the middle class something to cling to while they reproduce the structure of colonialism. Zionism is expected. Ever read Hannah Arendt? Oh, what a leftist!

      As far as improving conditions, he won’t. That’s why he focuses on wages and rent control. It doesn’t disturb the concentration of global capital in New York City one bit. Anybody serious about improving life for Americans would be talking about who gets jobs, and who owns the land. Nobody serious about it would be in his position. That’s all I care to explain to you.

        The reason I was asking for the link is because I couldn’t find it. You really just want to see the west burn huh not improve our conditions
