We know he sucks we knew it before september

No people did not know this. They were "libbing" out over his electoral "yes we can" videos. The revisionists are already starting their work...

No people did not know this.

I did. I assumed it was common knowledge. For reference, I'm not American, nor have I ever been to NYC.

Not that I'm against repeating it for people who missed it the first time.

Never assume that something which is "common knowledge" for you is common knowledge for everyone else. Sometimes we have to keep repeating agitprop over and over until it sinks in, or until it reaches everyone who can be reached.

Which people? People in NYC or us, the Tankie Triad? Because in this corner of the triad we've had nearly weekly struggle threads over every last thing Mamdani uttered since the primary. Lol we had a massive thread about this the day this podcast went live six weeks ago.
