Zohran Mamdani is a progressive candidate similar to past Bernie Sanders. He is running for mayor in New York against big establishment figures such as Andrew Cuomo.

Zohran has a massive online hype campaign behind him right now.

Hope they win.

I hope he gets in if he isn't evil. My town's mayor is fucking evil and its obvious as soon as he's off camera. Our guy is especially good at tricking the elderly into voting for him then worsening their living conditions every time.

He isn't. Zohran supports BDS.

The most surefire way to filter out carreer politicians is to look who dares to oppose the Israel lobby.

What is BDS? Duckduckgo and Wikipedia weren't very helpful.

Boycott, Divest, Something...

At least, given the context, it's somehow related to supporting Palestine.

Zohran Mamdani has buzz and some momentum in New York City’s mayoral race. But can a 33-year-old democratic socialist — or anyone else — beat former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary?

The answer is no.

Why does the floor look low resolution

NYC budget ran out

I came here to say the same. It looks like ps1 textures.

the water on the ground will dissipate slower in the mortar of the stones than it will in the center, hence why most of the stones are dry in the center.

I'm not a professional though, so I hope one comes in and corrects me lol

what 2x anisotropic filtering does to a mf

For anyone living in NYC it's super important you participate in the primary. Early voting has already started or you can attend on June 24 (coming up soon)!

Remember to fully fill out your ballot with five choices that DO NOT include Cuomo at all, Cuomo's name should be entirely absent from your ballot because he's a sexual abuser and not putting his name on your ballot is the best way to ensure that he doesn't win.

This has strong Elizabeth Warren energy.
