There are always more factors at play than elections when big shake ups happen in any government. It's like how democrats love taking credit for grassroots leftism just because they perceived themselves to be "the left" and can't recognize that others are farther to the left than Bernie sanders.
They can only get away with it becuase the American left is fragmented and underground, it can't emerge above ground to challenge the dems until it locks down the electoral game with a third party, the left can't develop a third party if it's most radical wing refuses to take electoralism seriously
Hard to take something seriously when it just changes the rules so we can't win
The point isn't always about winning, the point is to build an army and a base of support, stolen elections in that context makes our job easier
I can agree with that, and other points you made in this thread. At the end of the day it doesn't matter what my feelings on mamdani are because I can't vote for him anyway.
