So disappointed in the Latina talking head on CNN when it was reported

that Mamdani won. She was lit. Her eyes wide, her cheeks and mouth tight. Paraphrasing, You just wait and see. Wait and see what's going to happen. He's going to raise property taxes on everyone. No one is going to be able to afford a home.

Her face was tense for about five minutes and it's obvious she's PTSDing from some experience her parents had with Socialism in South America.

Let's just hope Mamdani wins them all over. It could make a difference everywhere else.

People are going to realize that socialism isn’t communism that they’ve been led to believe by the trillion dollar right wing propaganda machine

If Mamdani can work his plan in a way that it tears down all the negative expectations, it may open the door to showing people how much they have been fooled by the Right.

Fled Fidel Castro. Hence, she's a Karen when it comes to socialism.

But I can see why's she's scared. She's getting hit with the blue wave.
