What they are worried about is that it works in new York. If it works there then they are gonna have to come up with a whole lot of new lies to convince their victims/constituents that it can’t work in their home state.
They’ll just lie about it working in NY and say it’s not.
Say it’s not, even in the face of irrefutable proof, and their brain dead supporters will eat it up and parrot it.
Just like how they just lie about how America is apparently great again now. Everything has been amazing and perfect since January, and there’s nothing he could be doing better. Food prices are all down, gas prices are super low now. We’re all winning. Believe what you hear, not what you see.
Did you hear about the massive improvement on egg prices and it’s $0.12 a dozen now!
Yup like I said new lies. A whole lot of them.
I don’t see why that would matter, ‘Everyone else does it but we could never do it here’ has been americas whole thing as far as social justice goes for as long as I’ve been alive.
they have since resorted to thier lazy basic racism wedge.
That is always the case.
Yeah, no. They aren’t worried at all. They’re just towing the line and trashing the other party as per their sides usual antics. Whether NY succeeds or fails, Republican constituents are simply too fucking dumb and loyal and will swallow whatever bullshit lie their party tells them. Worrying about what lie to make up is the least of the Right’s worries.
This post is horribly misleading. Oklahoma ranks last in education. https://www.oklahoman.com/story/news/education/2025/07/24/oklahoma-schools-ranked-nearly-the-worst-in-the-nation-in-new-study/85310196007/
Trump does like his followers stupid.
I forgot he actually said he loves the poorly educated.
Edit: In front of thousands of them and on TV / social media to further millions. And they elected him twice.
Lol, thanks for that.
Is this a great state or what? /s
A senator that doesn’t know the difference between a communist and a democratic socialist clearly has no place in our government.
A solid portion of Americans cannot tell he difference
Well, they do love the uneducated
No they don’t, they love the stupidity.
for republicans always black and white, its one or thie either, they are uncomfortable there is variations in between, and even variations in one side or the other.
or even from a socialist from a dem socialist. i doubt any of thier voters know either.
A senator that doesn’t know the difference between a democratic socialist and social democrat doesn’t, either.
Mamdani has a pretty easy job in that these people have painted him to be the personification of Satan. He doesn’t need to do much to prove them wrong. If he keeps the city running and it doesn’t fall into the ocean, he’s already a roaring success by Republican standards.
He doesn’t need to do much to prove them wrong.
Nothing he can do will prove anything. Big Tech and Finance owned media will just lie over and over again. They’ll never stop. New York’s actual socio-economic condition won’t be reported on, except in the most polarized “everything is horrible, please liberate our people from the tyrannical Mamdani regime” light.
You will be mentally tortured for watching TV or using the Internet until he is removed from office.
Sensible people don’t watch corporate media. We know what they’ll say about Mamdani because they’ve been useless for at least a decade and already slander NYC as much as they can.
It’s not a matter of sensibility, but availability.
Jfc. Anything or anyone they don’t like is communism. Imagine if they saw ACTUAL communism. Their tiny minds would implode
The Incan empire would blow their minds. Note their economic systems were extremely egalitarian.
There’s a very factual reason for why people would “go native” and never want to come back, many but not all Native American tribes and societies were very egalitarian
You’ll be surprised. My observation as someone grew up in a communist country is that Americans who use “communism” as a threat to the world actually really love the PRC and will go out of their way praising the PRC.
Currently in the PRC, they would probably hate the idea that people they think are below them can live in an apartment for like 300 USD, eat out every day, and be seen enjoying themselves and dancing/gambling in the evenings.
Americans who use “communism” as a threat to the world actually really love the PRC
A large wealthy heavily urbanized and industrial country with high quality of life, a highly educated population, low instances of poverty and crime, and virtually no homelessness as a direct consequence of government policy.
It’s everything Americans say they want when they talk about the American Dream.
What Americans couldn’t handle was seeing all the non-white people in positions of wealth and power.
Native peoples setting domestic policy in a rich and powerful nation? An absolute nightmare for the American elite class.
They don’t even know WHAT communism actually is
Communism is when my guy doesn’t get to run things. And the less control I have, the more Communist everything is.
Tbf neither do leftist American kids on Lemmy. I’m pretty sure Americans are dumb
Edit: im an indigenous person who actually lived under communism for a while, but yeah the white North American kids who grew up in America are telling me what communism is
Yeah, I agree
I’m pretty sure Americans are dumb
Blind and deaf maybe. But Americans never shut up.
Markwayne was named after his two paternal uncles. My guess is his mom didn’t know which one was the actual father.
Brutal
This guy’s Wikipedia page shows that in his entire life, his greatest achievement is beating up 3 people.
His entire political career can be summed up as Jafar from Aladdin; he has a fetish for hurting people, but has evidently never done anything ever to actually ‘help’ anyone in his electorate.
If I ever became noteworthy enough to have a Wikipedia page, I would be downright ashamed to have his. How the fuck is this person an elected representative?
Oklahoma is as red as Massachusetts is blue. It’s just that kind of state.
The fact that NYC has over twice the population of his entire state is kinda funny.
“This is gonna be really bad for you” says the senator in a heaping pile of his own shit.
Too bad BLM already burned New York to the ground amiriiight!?
Good response from “thejeffmann.” As long as the Oklahoma Oblast is red run, it will continue to fail. The dumbfuck Mullin never met a true communist.
What does he mean by liberal states going blue? Aren’t they already blue by definition?
Well, you have sky blue, dark blue and navy blue, and then you have scary liberal communist blue. They’re not the same.
What about Prussian blue, I want to wear a pickelhaube.
Any of them got a nice Cerulean?
i think he means “I’m not gonna panic just because nyc voted the democrat in”, even as he’s literally panicking about that very thing.
“I’m not going to panic over NYC going blue any more than I’d panic about the pope being catholic”
Oklahoma mentioned!
oh
Oklahoma, where if your family has connections to OSU athletics, like Jesse Mack Butler, you can rape and strangle girls with no consequences! He’s currently available on Tinder in the Stillwater area!
It’s basically never good anymore
It was good at some point?
Well at one point there weren’t any colonizers living in it and the natural prairie existed.
Good is a stretch. Less bad would be more accurate. Because at least every headline with Oklahoma in it wasn’t “Oh great, what dumb shit did they do this time…”
…oh …k
Being normal and having human empathy and compassion is the opposite of being a Republican. Who knew?
Also, Democrats suck as well. They’re beholden to the billionaire class, but don’t seem to actively want to cause harm to the rest of us.
There was that study that shows the more right leaning someone is, the less empathy they have for people, animals and things outside of their immediate few circles (friends of friends kind of thing).
Democrats are essentially just republicans as well but with a bit of pink/green washing/performative action going on so.
They can be summed up as:
Repub: I don’t care unless it affects me and mine then I’ll bleat asking why no-one is doing anything about it.
Dems: I’ll pretend to care but won’t actually do anything to tackle the underlying causes but will nod caringly with a bit of a sad face
