Zohran Mamdani's 4th of July post. He truly is an excellent communicator.

18. I agree with much of what you say except

I don't think it fair to characterize a protest as "wanted to get his way."
I've participated in protests all my life: Anti-Vietnam War marches, Civil Rights events starting in the 60's, and now Anti-Trump.
Is that wanting to get my way? Or voicing my freedom of speech regarding something I believe to be wrong?

The quote I found about Momdani stating he "voted proudly for Kamala" was AI. I don't know the original source, so take it as you will.

I withheld my vote in the primary. Not because of Gaza. Because I thought there should have been a primary. I felt silenced already by not having the opportunity to vote for a Democrat I prefer. I understand we are supposed to support an incumbent but I thought he was too old to run again and believed long before the debate that he could no longer win. Based on appearances I'd seen of him. This is not a criticism of his many non-Gaza accomplishments as president.
