  • We have elections over who will be the candidate for each party called Primaries. Mamdani won the primary for the democratic party.

    Cuomo is now saying that although he lost to Mamdani in the primary, he’s going to run independent of parties.

    This is pissing people off for a few reasons.

    One of the biggest reasons though, we’ve had years where we were told to, “Vote Blue No Matter Who” because undeniably the republicans are worse. Now that an actual leftist won their primary though, Cuomo (a long time democrat) is now spoiling the vote by running independently.

    This is following a billionare stating he’ll give millions to anyone who has a shot of beating Mamdani.

    It definitely appears Cuomo would rather have a republican win than to let a leftist win.






  • Better yet, how about those of us who smirks or half smile because we had bad teeth when we were younger?

    Growing up poor with no dental visits or appropriate dental care products and trash food being bought = narcissist now?

    This is such a subjective quality to judge its just asinine.

    The dude just needed to publish SOMETHING for his grant yall. Lol

    I say this as someone with a lot of experience diagnosing and treating strokes…

    You’d be surprised how cruel and violent some people can become after them.

    I’ve seen the sweetest little grandma turn into a full on support for genocide nazi after one. More than once.





  • Oh I know what you meant, exactly. It’s grade school history. It’s also the same take repeated endlessly on internet forums where pedantry and needing to spell out every single facet rule supreme. So I guess I’ll spell it out. “The economy refers to the fact someone was able to pay for a home, family, and yearly vacation on an entry level, high school diploma as the only requirement job. The civil rights and liberties people are stating as the one thing they didn’t want to bring to modern times.”

    I’m going to assume you know why someone would want that without the abuse of minorities, immigrants, or third world countries.

    Or you can just pull the same thing everyone else does and state, “A society like that couldn’t exist without that exploitation.” like the true unique free thinker you are. To which I say prove it. We’ve always had a rich parasite class that needed exploitation, those who are fine without being far wealthier than others are perfectly capable of doing fine without the exploitation, its the leeches that require it.
