I read AOC +3 as like a d&d style stat modifier.

Welcome to Progressive Politics! A place for news updates and political discussion from a left perspective. Conservatives and centrists are welcome just try and keep it civil :)
(Sidebar still a work in progress post recommendations if you have them such as reading lists)
Calling that disgusting snake Chuck Schumer the Palestinian senator is pretty hilarious, given where he stands on the genocide.
Weird too because Shumer did not endorse Mamdani. Only a "congratulations". But in Trump land anything goes
He's prepping up the fascist transition for the midterms, and it couldn't be any more obvious. If it isn't outright theft it's going to be voter suppression and voter manipulation on an entirely different scale. It's so ridiculous to think the US is a democracy anymore, at this point the whole country is a confidence game and a scam that's just mobilizing the capital of the people who they already have scammed against new targets.
They already stole the last one. They are absolutely stealing the next ones til they get caught. Ivankas voting machine patent in China was no coincidence imo
Ha ha ha. This guys such a snowflake.
Honestly, if I lived in NY, this post on it's own would make me vote for him.
Of course, I'd have to live in the US too, which I don't, thank some deity.
Communist Trump doing it again
More shrieking dictator every day.
The black hole calling the snowman black
laugh, the cow calling the kettle black
Not only that but he literally lives off of taxpayer dollars and receives nationalized healthcare.
I like how they've gone full mask off and given up on the anti-semite attacks and are just calling anyone not calling for Gaza to be ethnically cleansed a Palestinian like it's an insult. Not even hiding the Islamophobia any more.
It's also double funny that he's calling fucking Schumer a Palestinian, it's like calling Biden a communist, which he also probably said. It just goes to show no matter how much the dems try to moderate to accommodate the conservatives they'll always be the enemy.

Plenty of times. The point of making the absurd claim is because the correction to the error contributes nothing but a deflection from the initial claim.
Trump tweets are pure, unadulterated gish gallup.
He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he's not very smart...
Trump describing himself.
Chuck Schumer is Palestinian? Since When? 🤔
Remember when people didn't get elected because they weren't "presidential" enough?
😢
YEEEEHAAAAWWWWW
he is has been aipac agent his for last two decades. he has just tones lately like biden to pretend he is not a rabid zionist.
Weird things can happen when you've spent four decades making people poorer and more desperate.
It's a Mayor these guys are freaking out over.
The president is freaking out over a Mayor.
That's true fear. They know we intend to use the law to put the real criminals in prison.
To be fair, NYC is a huge city and so its mayor is a major figure in the US. The most recent population I could find was 8.8 million people, vs. the total US at 340 million. NYC is, therefore, home to 2.6% of the US population. As a polity, NYC represents more people than the 9 least populous states (Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, N Dakota, S Dakota, Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana, and Maine) combined. In fact, there are only 12 US states that have a bigger population than NYC alone, and one of those is New York state. From a population perspective, the mayor of NYC is equivalent to the governor of Virginia. That's why everyone is freaking out about this so much. Plus he's young and very handily beat the candidate backed by the DNC establishment, showing cracks in what they assumed was a solid neoliberal core.
NYC has more population than like 38 individual states, what you say is true.
The future is now, old man.
He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he's not very smart, he's got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him.
As a Canadian I know almost nothing about Zohran Mamdani, but I do know that he has more class than a man ever will who, while President of the USA, writes this, or the people who see a non-white left-winger win a democratic vote and immediately call for his deportation. The world can see this. Trump and MAGA are bringing shame on your country.
We know. We’re miserable. (Us sane people, anyway).

every day is more embarrassing than the last. i have felt shame in the past for the things our ancestors did, but there's something different about living in the midst of it. i fucking hate this place. any time i hear "well leave if you don't like it" i'm like "I FUCKING WOULD IF I COULD"
Jesus Christ. Put this poor sad dog out of its misery already. Pasture, barn, in the house where it can't do any damage, whatever. Just take it away from all responsibility.
"All the (centrist fucks) are extreme leftist Marxists!"
"OMG a (milquetoast moderate) won, the Marxists are taking over!"
"Holy shit a (moderately left leaning person) won an election! It's over for America the Communists won!"
"The crazy Marxist Democrat extreme leftists have gone too far with this (standard progressive)"
...etc etc...
now we have an "actual" socialist, but the boy cried wolf so many times they can't label him anything more extreme because they already threw those words at people like... (Checks notes)... Nancy Pelosi... Lol
AOC+3? Is this supposed to be code?
BRB, looking up wholesome AOC fiction on AO3
Looks terrible, his voice is grating, he's not very smart. Who do those words make me think of? DJT and RFKjr win in a landslide.
He looks terrible.
This is a racist pointing out someone's brown skin.
His voice is grating.
RFK JR
He's not very smart.
My dog is smarter than Donald Trump. Literally.
So anyway, the person saying this is a felon rapist traitor who has repeatedly violated the Constitution. But hey, it's a racist dog whistle and conservatives LOVE that shit.
I read here that Trump is calling someone mentally unfit.
Let's see that slander case. TACO.
The irony of saying someone’s not that intelligent when it appears you don’t even know how to use punctuation.
I’m pretty terrible with punctuation but I’m not throwing stones from my glass house.
Trump and the Republicans are now calling him a communist and the GOP are asking Trump to revoke his citizenship and deport him under the Communist Control Act signed by Eisenhower in 1954. I think it's even money that Trump tries it.
The one to rally watch is orange rumps puppet master. Thiel and his band of project 2025 cronies are the ones operating the strings.
