Democrats are all upset over Mamdani because he’s a Democratic Socialist? Why? I don’t get it. What’s wrong with being a Democratic Socialist. It seems like a good thing to me. I thought Democrats embraced socialism.

I’m serious and not very savvy when it comes to politics. I feel like the establishment is out of touch with regular people. I wouldn’t mind if more socialists got elected. I would have voted for Sanders. Also, it’s hard to tell just what the establishment actually wants half the time. I don’t know, it just seems like democrats should support more socialist ideas.

Cool, thanks
The establishment has always, and will always want, to get and keep more money and power. That’s it. When in doubt, no matter what the surface level issues are that they say they “support” (to get people to vote for them), always think back to how this or that tactic will get them more money and power.
