The Parasites Who Want To Run America

Democrats have been wondering what has happened to their party.

Why is it that Donald Trump has been elected twice in a three-election span? Why is it that the Democrats are currently riding in the 20% range with regard to their popularity in American life? Where did Democrats go wrong?

When you look at the public figures who are being put forward by the Left as the most salient, the most important, the most brilliant thinkers, the people who need to lead the country, they are all from Manbun McSoy Boy’s neck of the woods.

All of them.

The AOC self-congratulatory Democratic Socialists of America wing of the Democratic Party — people who have barely held a job, with a huge percentage of them getting a college education on the dime of their parents, the vast majority of whom are white — are taking over the Democratic Party.

The luxury beliefs that are held by white, college educated liberals are at complete odds with reality. For them, it’s all about values signaling. “Do you need to even work, bro? Who cares about your work, bro? Your job? Your community? Your safety?”

What really matters is that you’re holding the right lawn sign.

For the Democratic Party, it has become all about sounding off. It’s all about the performative. It’s all about the “resistance.”

One of the things that has truly broken the country is the primary process in both parties, but largely in the Democratic Party. That primary process, which says that the most motivated Left wingers are going to decide who the nominees are, has completely skewed the nature of American politics.

Thus, there is a brand new poll showing that the new frontrunner in the New York Democratic mayoral primary is not Andrew Cuomo, the disgraced former governor who’s now running for mayor in New York; it’s a person named Zohran Mamdani, according to a new poll by Public Policy Polling. (Mayor Eric Adams, who was a Democrat, is now running as an Independent.)

Who exactly is Zohran Mamdani? A state lawmaker from Queens, an open democratic socialist, one of these privileged, highly educated people who is completely disconnected from real life. He is the son of a Hollywood director and a college professor at Columbia University. He’s 33 and never held a real job.

He believes there should be city-run grocery stores, because the problem with grocery stores is that they operate at a profit motive. He’s a full-scale Bernie Sanders nut case. He said, “We will redirect city funds from corporate supermarkets to city-owned grocery stores whose mission is lower prices, not price gouging. These stores will operate without a profit motive or having to pay property taxes or rent, and we’ll pass on those savings to you.”

That’s not how things work. The Soviet Union tried to operate “stores without profit motive.” You know what ended up happening? Misallocation of resources. What ends up happening is shortages, because the profit motive is what determines how to control supply, what to bring into the grocery store and what not to.

“We have to make it very clear that people cannot eat words,” he declared. “People need to have actual food. People need to have actual houses to live in, people need to have actual schools that they can go to. And I think it’s so critical that this journey into understanding the way in which we should relate to power, this journey and understanding that it is socialism that we are fighting for, is a journey that should begin as soon as possible for every single person in this country and this world.”

How radical is Mamdani? He said in 2020 that the New York Police Department — this was in 2020, while the riots were going on — should be removed from high-crime areas.

These are luxury beliefs. These are beliefs that nobody who actually lives on the ground in New York City holds, except for white libs and their allies. Mamdani isn’t white, but his voting base is predominantly white.

The New York Times even asked him about his voting base and the fact that they’re predominantly white, saying, “The polls show you’re doing really well with younger, whiter, more progressive voters. Why do you think you’re having a harder time with voters of color, who seem to be supporting former Governor Cuomo?” 

Mamdani suggested it was because the vast majority of New Yorkers had yet to tune in to the race. He said the polling obscured Asian New Yorkers, who were not listed as a category.

That’s not why. The answer is, as I’ve said, because the luxury beliefs that are held by white, college educated liberals are at complete odds with reality.

In 2020, Mamdani called for defunding the police. In February 2024, he was screaming about Israeli genocide while wearing a keffiyeh.

This is the guy who’s on the verge of becoming mayor of New York City, the most populous city in the United States. This is how off the rails the Democratic Party is.

Mamdani is a representation in human form of the Omnicause, the leftist agglomeration of grievances in one giant cause.

The question is not why people like Mamdani exist. We know why: They’ve been turned out by the university system, by a far-Left in this country that is taking control of the commanding heights of American popular culture and education and the media.

Name one political difference between the obnoxious Swedish woman child Greta Thunberg and this obnoxious American manchild now running for mayor in New York.

You can’t.
