She seems pretty critical of immigrants, does that count?

For her, it's just who ever most recently said a thing she liked vs who who ever is in charge and can be blamed for all the things she doesn't like. She's probably never met a government official she couldn't blame for a cloud blocking her sunlight, and never met a politician that lies if the things they're saying sound nice.

PS. That's not aimed at Mamdani, just Shirley Wong and those who behave like her.

It's almost like conservatives have spent decades chipping away at education specifically so that people wouldn't have critical thinking skills and could be treated like cattle.

More likely she grew up in an environment where this type of thinking was normalized, and to think otherwise was met with social consequences. Outside of a few breakout individuals, most have to be taught early not to take what they're told for granted.

Mamdani showed us what works. If the Democrats don't listen it's their fault if they lose

This is the most hilarious comment in the thread. I appreciate a good pun!

Of course! Do you know who was also an immigrant? Mary Anne MacLeod who was married to, and had children with, Fred Trump who was himself a first-generation American.

Aren't most US Americans immigrants if you just go back in time long enough?
Hell, even Native Americans must've immigrated somewhen.
It's all about 'I got mine, fuck you!' attitude.

I think what's really sad about Trumpism and similar surges of right wing support in other countries is that I get where it's coming from — many of these people were already thoroughly fucked over by things they had no choice over. And then they're so desperate for change that they vote for things that fuck them over even harder. We need more politicians like Mamdani

Edit: typo

Democrats spent four years fixing shit and the American public fell for lies from the guy who wrecked most of it.

There’s no way to fix that kind of stupidity.

white people resist making puns off Chinese last names challenge (impossible)

That's not what she's saying in that sentence. "...referring to Mamdani."
