Slop.

One might ask, then, why he looked perfectly comfortable this March speaking at an event celebrating the creation of Pakistan, a country that privileges Islam and has ethnically cleansed most of its Sikhs, Christians and Hindus.

The would-be mayor’s views on India are also strident. He has called Prime Minister Narendra Modi a “war criminal” for the 2002 Hindu-Muslim riots that took place on his watch as chief minister of Gujarat. In 2023 Mr. Mamdani signed a statement condemning Mr. Modi’s visit to New York.

On India, Mr. Mamdani has staked out partisan positions on everything from proposed agricultural reforms to the election of a communist mayor in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. Mr. Modi and his party aren’t above criticism, but Mr. Mamdani’s understanding of his ancestral homeland is cartoonishly lacking in nuance.

Hindutva detected

Why would someone who emigrated to the U.S. from a poor country champion ideas that keep poor countries poor?

...

Mr. Mamdani’s ideas on economics and international relations mirror the failed policies of socialist-era [sic] India

So true bestie. I suggest Democrats champion ideas that turn poor countries rich, such as socialist revolution, decades of communist-party rule, five-year plans, a dominant state industry sector, and becoming the largest producer of steel and concrete in order to build hundreds of millions of homes.

What an excellent piece of rhetoric from the high school republicans club! Why did WSJ publish it though?

Yap, yap, yap, these anti-communist Islamophobes really don't see how much of the veil Zohran pierced with his campaign

He dogwalked them while facing down accusations of terrorism and anti-Semitism, this isn't 1985 where being called a socialist or communist turns people's brains off

"Third World Prejudices" lmao who do these dipshits think they're talking to, redditors? Zohran has the white male vote in New York City and he overcame the DNC party machine that organized Black Churches and Black community voting groups, IT'S OVER and the more racist the media gets, the more blatantly unfair and lecturing and hectoring their tone becomes the more the average Joe becomes curious about Zohran

The dumb fucks are polarizing people toward him not away from him, because they forgot their power lies in state coercion and billionaire money, not popular appeal

Third world prejudices like "Genocide Bad"

Government-built housing units? Their boxy contours mar urban India.

Meanwhile in NY:

seems to me that he is bringing in the era of mask-off islamophobia back tbh

Why would someone who emigrated to the U.S. from a poor country champion ideas that keep poor countries poor?

oh god i cant

Mr. Mamdani represents the left’s failure to learn the lessons of the Cold War.

The story of communism ended with the USSR. Please don't ask us about our largest trading partner.

Hahahahaha no way, it's the browns that are the true bigots, thank you for enlightening me wermacht street journal

E: oh its not just that they're bigots either, they're also too stupid to make their countries rich and govern themselves! The ubermensch in the US got it figured out and all these stupid poors keep ruining everything, got it WSJ (Wermacht SStreet JeffBezos)

You know someone is a good person when the WSJ publishes an article attacking them.

my brain while reading this article: we need to this journalist to with hammers

Holy fuck I was NOT prepared for that byline.

I wouldn't expect any different from Bezo's post

What are we?
