"People keep fear mongering Mamdani by saying he will bring religious extremism to NYC. Babes I don’t know how to say this gently…the religious extremists are already in federal office. They are Christian Nationalists and their agenda has nothing to do with Christ. They are cult extremists who have appropriated the name of Jesus and are now withholding food from the poor. The extremism is here and has been here."
~ Bonni Mace
"That [Mamdani] was appealing to a majority electorate despite the open hostility of wealthy elites and mainstream opinion-makers is at least an indictment of the narrowly self-gratifying and suffocatingly enclosed world they’ve built for themselves."
~ Timothy Burke

"It won’t be long before the editors and billionaires feed that machine a new set of prompts about Mamdani’s shortcomings. In their vision of the world, he will have always already failed before he ever actually begins."
I've always had at least one troll — a self-described "lifelong Republican" and apparently as proud as a peacock of that self-designation — hop into my feed today and try the game re: Mamdani Burke describes here.

“Here we believe in standing up for those we love, whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many Black women that Donald Trump has fired from a federal job, a single mom still waiting for the cost of groceries to go down, or anyone else with their back against the wall. No more will New York be a city where you can traffic in Islamophobia and win an election.”
~ Mamdani quoted by Nick Visser

Addressing Trump, Mamdani stated in his victory speech,
“New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant.”
~ Quoted by Chris Geidner
"Mamdani’s victory, above all, is a rebuke to the conventional strategies of the Democratic party, which in the year since Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election had been in a state of malaise and decline."

"Israel and Islamophobia moved voters one way or another. But in the end, it was pure class warfare."

"I think for far too long we've tried not to lose, as opposed to figuring out how to win."
-- Zohran Mamdani, speaking about the Democratic party and his bold proposals, in the October 20, 2025, issue of The New Yorker. My, I like him. He's the future. I want to see more politicians like him (and AOC, Michelle Wu, Katie Wilson, Maxwell Frost, etc.).
