Zohran Mamdani: New York’s Socialist, Muslim candidate

They say you get what you wish for. NY must be wishing real hard for more Socialistic mayhem. I’m referring to the rise of Mamdani.

 

He tells us he is a ‘Social Democrat’, which is to say the old-school religion of Socialism minus the overtly evil stuff (killing folks, and dictatorships). He speaks out of one side of his mouth to say he is for the free-market engine for the economy and the growth of small businesses, whilst at the same time speaking out of the other side of his mouth to defend wealth distribution, crushing bigger business, taking control of some businesses, and increasing taxes (see ahead). Think of modern communist China, or the multi-millionaire and hardcore Social Democrat Bernie Saunders. Mamdani is not a racist- he tells us so! Nor a Muslim fundamentalist. He’s pro-LGBqrstu. So, we should stop misrepresenting him. So says Mamdani.


Khan’s playbook

I took a look at his website with its platform. It is modern Socialism 101. What Americans will not be aware of is that Mamdani is replicating the model of one Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London. Check out both websites and see for yourself.[1] Mamdani is essentially plagiarizing Khan’s playbook. Now, to be fair, Khan is not a Socialist ideologue as Mamdani, but his politics is what I would call ‘pragmatic Socialism’, Socialism in practice. This allows him to be a bit more reserved and cautious when doing things. He is more covert in his actions and not ‘out there’ as much. Mamdani has the zeal of youth and idealism, and is going to tear it up, in his own eyes.

 

Now, before I say anything more, the US and the UK are vastly different in one regard. What Mamdani is overtly trying to do has already been done in Britain and it failed. Thatcher had to do the dirty work of tearing down and digging up entrenched and built-up Socialist edifices. And but around 10yrs ago, the Labour Party in the UK tried to resurrect the old Socialist system and were destroyed at the polls. Khan is very well aware of this, and this is no doubt why he is more 'functional' in his Socialism. Perhaps New York just has to get its fill of Socialist rottenness before it learns its lesson. 

 

Black privilege

Khan’s views on ‘immigration’ fit right in with UK mainstream politics. The more foreigners the better. A picture is worth a thousand words. The ‘ethnic white’, especially white males, are no longer ‘London’. Just look at the website photo that I gave the link to. White males are in the background; white females are part of London’s new mixed-race foreground. Brendan O’Neill consequently writes about “Sadiq Khan’s racial dystopia”.[2] Khan’s mixed-race has its pecking order and white male is in the background.

 

Of course, Mamdani is all about illegal immigration, vowing to defend illegal immigrants in the “Strongest Sanctuary City in the world”![3] Mamdani belongs to the Social Democrats, who will stand up against the man Trump and his racist army.[4] According to Mamdani, black neighborhoods have a higher rate of ‘tangled title’ issues (houses that are theirs but they don’t have the deeds for them). He also says that, “The City is six times more likely to sell a tax lien in a Black neighborhood than a white neighborhood.” The whites who are wealthier must pay more taxes, “Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods”.[5] Clearly, Mamdani is not thinking along the lines of tax-burdened ‘Americans’, but tax-burdened blacks and tax-lite whites.

 

Will there be a ‘whitexodus’ of the rich and businesses? Don’t be surprised if there is.

 

Promoting Islamic culture

Neither Khan nor Mamdani is a conservative Muslim by the Quran’s standards, but they are, nonetheless, committed to promoting an Islamic culture. Even though both Khan and Mamdani thought Hamas’ initial actions against Israel were flagrantly wrong, neither man has come out to condemn Hamas itself, even though Hamas is a terrorist group by British and US law.[6] Mamdani does not need to verbally express the phrase ‘global intifada’, but his unwillingness to condemn the language and its ideology tells us everything. Indeed, in Mamdani’s past as a rapper (!), he praised the ‘Holy Land Five’,[7] five American Muslims found guilty, in 2008, by Dallas federal court for funneling millions of dollars to Hamas.[8]

 

Both men are canny enough not to play the Islamic card by itself, so they use the constant tactic of referring to  Islam via various topics: nationalism, illegal immigration, ‘political’ causes in Islamic countries, the treatment of non-white ‘races’. All are passive-aggressive means to defend and promote an Islamic culture. Is it any wonder that London is a magnate for Islam and its protest against Israel,[9] or that Muslims en masse took to NYC in support of Mamdani?

 

Don’t sleep on this

It is true that Mamdani is, as to politics, first a Socialist and then a Muslim. Yet, one does not need to be a prophet to see that what has happened in Europe can happen here, and will if we don’t wake up. Britain freely and willingly, as a nation, gave up its ‘Christian heritage’,[10] despising it. Many New Yorkers, especially the younger generation, are casting off any traditions, especially Christian ones. Mamdani does not need to promote Islam directly. All he needs to do, as in Europe, is three things: leave the door open to illegal immigrants; provide them financial and social backing; and, stir up the younger, Leftist, New Yorkers to support his cause. Muslims will do the rest and flood in. Even though Mamdani is perfectly aware that Iran’s Shia regime would punish him for his ‘cultural Islam’, he nevertheless is willing to passively promote any and all forms of Islam. This is exactly what Khan did and is doing.
