Joke's on you because the 75+ demographic is 50/50 these days and actually voted slightly in favor of Biden, it's the 35-65 demographic that strongly favors Trump and the GOP these day
You just described a large group of old people. You gonna exclude them too? Let's say anyone over 75.

so, piss backwards on the youngsters who voted for Trump?
for tactical advantage?
I'd claim more like mid 50's+ voted for leftist trash.
Mamdani's paternal forbears were originally from Gujarat, but settled in Uganda. Had been there (recalled by heart) for over 100 years when Zohran Mandani's family moved.
Mamdani himself was born in Uganda
His father, I think, was pushed out of Uganda for not being African enough or something like that?

Lol, a bit off topic, but do you still have that avatar of Gonzo and Sigourney Weaver, the Aliens parody meme? I tried looking for it on the net, but I couldn't find it. That was funny, lol.
inside baseball, NY edition
Both Satmar factions decide not to endorse a candidate for mayor and decry the vicious campaign against Mamdani that paints him as hostile to Jews.
In letters to their community members, the Satmar leadership calls the attacks against Mamdani false and dangerous.
Google translate, so it's a little rough, but the gist is clear
Satmar Judaism is commonly known as "Hasidic" in English
Paying advisers is illegal?
They always forget they voted for a convicted felon
lulzoftiktok
not sure how it relates to this thread
but it is clear GAustex swallows fascist propaganda whole and does not digest it
lol NYT
https://www.semafor.com/article/10/2...ot-an-imposterThe man at the heart of a high-stakes mix-up that rippled through global political journalism in the final days of the New York mayoral campaign was neither “falsely claiming” to be former Mayor Bill de Blasio — as the Times of London suggested — nor, as The New York Times wrote, a “de Blasio impersonator.”He is, instead, a 59-year-old Long Island wine importer named Bill DeBlasio, who merely responded to an email from a journalist seeking his views on Democrat Zohran Mamdani’s policies.
“I’m Bill DeBlasio. I’ve always been Bill DeBlasio,” DeBlasio said in an interview conducted Wednesday evening through his Ring doorbell in Huntington Station, Long Island, from his current location in Florida.
“I never once said I was the mayor. He never addressed me as the mayor,” DeBlasio told Semafor Wednesday evening. “So I just gave him my opinion.”
The episode began earlier this week when a reporter for the quality British newspaper, Bevan Hurley, sent a polite email to an email address containing the full name belonging both to the wine seller and the two-term New York mayor, who spells “de” with a lowercase “d” and inserts a space between the two parts of his surname. (In DeBlasio’s view, “low-class Italians use a little d.“)
The Times reporter, Hurley, was researching “an article looking at Zohran Mamdani’s policy plans and their estimated costs,” he wrote. “I would greatly appreciate your insights on Mr Mandani’s ambitious agenda, potential obstacles, and whether the sums add up.”
De Blasio understood the situation. “I could have corrected him,” he said. Instead, he played along. He used ChatGPT to compose a response criticizing Mamdani’s tax plans, in particular, as unlikely to raise the requisite revenue.
“It was all in good fun. I never thought it would make it to print,” DeBlasio said. He assumed the reporter would “have all his people check it out.”
The Times deleted the article from its website, and issued a statement claiming that “our reporter had been misled by an individual falsely claiming to be the former New York mayor.”
De Blasio was particularly annoyed at the idea that, by operating under his own name, he could labeled an imposter or, as The New York Times put it, a “de Blasio impersonator.”
And indeed, he was tired of getting the former mayor’s email — which had amounted to a decade of “brutal, vicious hate mail.”
DeBlasio said he met de Blasio once, at a 2016 New York Mets play-off game. He said he was asked by security guards, who couldn’t believe the coincidence, “Hey, do you want to meet the real Bill de Blasio?”
“How bad is it having the same last name as me?” DeBlasio recalls the mayor asking him.
He responded: “Dude, you’re killing me.”
DeBlasio said he thought the journalism that swept him into a story and brought Semafor to his Long Island doorstep was “lazy,” but in the end, the reporter had quoted him accurately. He’s not sure Mamdani will be able to pull of his ambitious agenda.
“To be honest, I don’t think it’s feasible, unless you’re gonna be in office for 10 years,” he said
What's your excuse for doing the same?
Looks like a caught a stray here
can you give me an example of what you mean?
I mean, in a thread where the main topic is Mamdani, GAustex posting something completely unrelated from LibsOfTikTok is mindless boosterism
you're completely stray from the topic
(GAustex's repost was probably a reply to the thread le, not the topic. I guess that can be done skillfully or not; for better and for worse, GAustex as usual has nothing to say about his own post.)
