Among the many words spewed by Zohran Kwame Mamdani, the Democratic Party’s Marxist-Leninist nominee for mayor of New York City, it’s tough to pick the ugliest.
His “end goal” involves “seizing the means of production.” Government confiscation of industry is textbook Communism. Since 1917, this policy has spread misery from Moscow to East Berlin, Pyongyang, Havana, Managua, and Caracas.
New York State Assemblyman Matt Slatertold Fox News that Mamdani “referred to his colleagues” in Albany as his ‘comrades.’” This is an almost comically stereotypical indication that Mamdani is a full-throated Communist, not merely the Leninist-lite “democratic socialist” whom he claims to be.
Mamdani’s hateful statements about the New York Police Department in 2020 have aged even worse than Robert Redford.
“We don’t need an investigation to know that the NYPD is racist, anti-queer & a major threat to public safety.” How odd. As of last November, NYPD’s majority-minority ranks were 11.3% Asian, 16.5% black, 32.5% Hispanic, and 39.7% white. The “anti-queer” NYPD hires gays, guards gay Pride events every June, and helps scores of local gay businesses thrive safely.
“There is no negotiating with an institution this wicked & corrupt. Defund it. Dismantle it. End the cycle of violence.”
Just last Dec. 19, Mamdani said this on X about the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group: “As Mayor, I will disband the SRG, which has cost taxpayers million in lawsuit settlements and brutalized countless New Yorkers exercising their first amendment [sic] rights.”
If Mamdani were in charge, the Strategic Response Group would be kaput. This would have let gunman Shane Tamura kill more victims during his July 28 mass shooting in Midtown Manhattan. Instead, Tamura evaded the Stragetic Response Group, which arrived in just two minutes.
Mamdani’s campaign website showcases his most disturbing comments. He proposes “To shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.”
NBC’s Kristen Welker challenged Mamdani on June 29’s Meet the Press to “Explain why you are bringing race into your tax proposal.”
Mamdani replied with a spectacular display of demagoguery.
“That is just a description of what we see right now,” Mamdani said. “It’s not driven by race.”
“I’m just naming things as they are,” he added. “And the use of that language is just an assessment of the neighborhood.”
Rubbish.
Left-wing Democrats typically promote income redistribution without playing race cards. For decades, Democrats have demanded that wealthier Americans “pay their fair share of taxes” (which they already do, but I digress). When in power, Democrats eagerly raise taxes and then dole out the ensuing revenues via subsidies and payouts for the poor and other pet constituencies. Democrats have done this without citing the races of the taxpayers who fuel their gravy train.
Mamdani could have done likewise without evoking race, to wit: “Shift the tax burden to richer neighborhoods.” His claim that “whiter” merely describes those areas is totally disingenuous. Mandani easily could have offered his recipe for disaster, but without the racial sauce.
Imagine a Republican saying: “I want to deploy the NYPD to Gotham’s dangerous neighborhoods.” Most would agree.
Now, picture this GOP candidate promising to “deploy the NYPD to Gotham’s dangerous, blacker neighborhoods.”
All hell would erupt.
Likewise, most people would be OK with someone hoping for “more opportunities for disadvantaged actors, writers, and directors in Hollywood.”
However, visualize that same person desiring “more opportunities for disadvantaged actors, writers, and directors in Hollywood, rather than people named Spielberg, Katzenberg, and Weinstein.” This would not be “just a description” of the motion picture industry. This would be a completely different and menacing proposition.
Likewise, Mandani could have kept his proletarianism in his pants and simply invoked the class struggle in his planned assault on “richer neighborhoods.” Adding “whiter” takes this concept in a direction that neither Karl Marx nor Friedrich Engels ever did. That’s why these are Comrade Mamdani’s ugliest words, so far.
