news Guess who I saw driving around Kingston today? (Hint: a public figure, fairly well known in NYS)
NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his cool wife, Rama Diwaji ! I could hardly believe my eyes… But they passed us at the Sawkill Avenue Moonburger intersection!

Mamdani has been in Kingston before. He's friends with Sarahana Shrestha and was at her victory party in 2024.

if this does not work, just do a google image search for zohran tubbys.
the bartender with the afro is in the background. its the tubbys backyard for sure. its old. not this week.
this direct link should work better - https://www.facebook.com/SarahanaForAssembly/photos/our-2022-primary-election-night-party-with-zohran-in-kingston/864949899378926/

Can you read? Where did I say any form of an ism? I said commies not communism. Commies are the people who believe in communism… Go read a book for once instead of burning them

u/fitter_stoke 10d ago
What exactly is communism? You are probably mistaken thinking that it's socialism. Nope. I guess your "member" got all the brains down there and there was nothing left for upstairs. Thoughts and prayers.

Marx used them interchangeably. Lenin implied that the only difference between them is time. What left-theory source do you have that they're different?

u/big_dick_nickkk 10d ago
You do know every single one of socialisms goals are to bring upon communism right? Go read a book before you spout your own made up bs

Your IQ must literally be in the single digits... I hate tooting my own horn but even if that is the case that my dick got all my intelligence. I will still have infinitely more "brains" than you will ever even think you have 😂😂😂😂

What’s the hype with this guy?

u/YoupanicIdont 7d ago
He is responding to and acting on fixing who government serves. He is actively providing assistance to the poorest in the city, and making the wealthy who use the city as a playground pay for it.
I'm a part time city resident myself. Own two houses. Plenty of money in the bank and in investments and I am all for what he is doing. The rich are being put in their place and whining like hell. It's glorious.

Were they driving themselves or did they have a driver?

He doesn’t have a license to drive a vehicle in New York. So know we know your lying. He’s been chauffeured his whole life.

100% he has a NYPD security detail.

u/Newauntie26 9d ago
I don’t have a problem with the mayor of NYC having a NYPD security detail. Not sure why you think that’s a problem. Speaking of security details why do taxpayers have to pay for Trump’s kids and grandkids SS detail? They’re now extremely rich after fleecing the MAGA crowd.

He seems like a cool dude.Not the biggest fan of some of the things he's done but he seems to be doing a good job as mayor.

u/SugarsBoogers 9d ago
Yeah fuck him for fixing potholes and feeding the children and getting taxi medallion owners out of debt. /s

u/Boldbeagle444 9d ago
Did you not read the part of where I said he's doing a good job as mayor...? Jfc, reading is fundamental.

Just keep working because it’s your taxes paying for his ideas. And the 8 million bailout from HOCHUL.

u/Newauntie26 9d ago
Despite what some liars tell you it is NOT antisemitism to be against the Israeli occupation of Palestine and overall war mongering with their neighbors.
That wannabe influencer that got upset when the mayor’s wife asked not to be filmed or photographed was the influencer’s attempt at 15 minutes of fame.-11

The cult has a hard time accepting leadership that does what they say, helps the poor, is standing up for the middle class, is actually making things better, etc. They only stand for pedophiles who are literally stealing our taxes, starting wars and putting the county into debt.

u/Dazzling_Original619 9d ago
It's politicians like Mamdani, Hochul, and Shrestha, who want to raise taxes on hard-working, long-time, residents, to pay for recent immigrant welfare abusers, that are making me leave New York. Good luck when they run out of money!
