Legislation that will follow ideology lines. That's why the NYPD and the IDF are so close. And Mamdani is now showing that he has no problem denouncing actual left wing movements before even getting into any position of power. He is already showing that he can be compromised on even the smallest things.

Yup. If he is saying this now it's only a matter of time until he starts to justify interventions, sanctions and bombings, sides with cops over protesters, and both-sides the Palestinian genocide.
