    What is with the black and white glasses where you have to support every single thing someone does? Mamdani is better than most but that does not mean he can never drop the ball.

      I never said he hadn’t dropped the ball. You’re making the same point I am. It’s okay to sometimes drop the ball. You’ve got to pick your battles, and you’re bound to choose the wrong ones occasionally too.

      Should he have picked this one? You seem to think so. What would you have had him do, that you think would have been the right thing? Just passionate condemnation of the law that was passed?

        Mamdani was very passionate about New York following international law and making sure it would before he got elected.

        This event is direct participation of New York in the genocide of Palestinians. Which does not really sound very compliant to me.
