Any self respecting leftist would've encourage boycotting the upcoming World Cup in the US. It is the most haram World Cup since Mussolini's Italy 1934 World Cup.

Because he understands that electoral politics doesn't care about your jurisdiction or the nuances of process. He is doing a leftist trump, or essentially what a lot of pink tide leaders have done in the past: say bunch of popular things you have no way of achieving but that aren't really high stakes, most people will remember you said them, but not care enough to keep you accountable for them. Boom, easy popularity.

Electoral politics rarely cares about actual results and whether people can or can't do something

The whole Zohran fiasco has actually been one of the things that pushed me to finally work on leaving the US. When supposed "leftists" defend such a milquetoast liberal who, mark my words, will become just another AOC, I knew this country was cooked.

I don't even think he'll make NYC materially better for its residents. The man is a handsome Muslim Edward Bernays.

Enjoy your sinking ship AmeriKKKans.

Lmao if you think I'm defending him, I'm just describing what he's doing, and why it's so effective in electoral politics. I couldn't give less of a shit about him.

I didn't think you were. Your comment just triggered me to finally write my real feelings down. Have a good day.

Fair enough, no worries. I understand seeing a post that just makes you say how you feel.
