Breitbart– Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is not shy about playing race and class cards in his campaign platform proposal to hike property taxes for “richer and whiter neighborhoods.”
Calling it a “soak-the-rich” proposal, the New York Post described the platform as an effort to fix the city’s “notoriously skewed property tax system,” where high-end brownstones are assessed at lower rates than homes and rentals in lower-income neighborhoods.
The race-based language is contained in Mamdani’s extensive “Stop the Squeeze on NYC Homeowners” campaign material.
It promises that a Mamdani administration will:
Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods: The property tax system is unbalanced because assessment levels are artificially capped, so homeowners in expensive neighborhoods pay less than their fair share. The Mayor can fix this by pushing class assessment percentages down for everyone and adjusting rates up, effectively lowering tax payments for homeowners in neighborhoods like Jamaica and Brownsville while raising the amount paid in the most expensive Brooklyn brownstones.
The Post account acknowledged that “Democrats and many Republicans have long pushed to fix the out-of-whack system that ends up hitting poorer, often largely black and brown neighborhoods, with higher property taxes than their neighbors in swanky areas that tend to be majority Caucasian.” more

Problem is NYC idiots of all classes will lap this right up and vote for it.
In 2001 muslims fly planes into the World Trade Center towers. Twenty four years later NYC is leaning towards electing a muslim? WTF is wrong with New Yorker’s?
I don’t care where he says he’s from, he looks pretty white to me. I know plenty of white people browner than he is. OK, OK, I live in Florida, but still.
Just another charlatan pandering to the lowest common denominator.
Everybody that doesn’t or didn’t know

Five Card Mamdani
Name of the Game
An old mathamagicain trick to fool
Ranked Choice Voting is a deceitful trick being played on math illiterate young and old. It fools everyone. Except those strategic thinkers with pre-advance knowledge of algerbraic formuluea for pushing an Algebra Inevitable outcome predictively predicted in advance when it was found to be so easy to make you fall for it.

This is me being lazy.
Violence is a social construct ergo dump the jails. Tax the F out of whitey. All drugs should be legal. Defund and shut down law enforcement. That’s his platform. Oh and Capitalism sucks. If these people are this stupid I hope they vote him in. Someone call Snake Blitzken. I’ll wager even in New York 50% of the incarcerated are non violent offenders. Further more someone should beat this asshole to a pulp and ask him if that felt like a social construct
The city gets what it deserves.

Why is this no surprise.
These people vote Demoncrat every chance they get and the G-d Damed republicans refuse to vote because they won’t stand up for their rights.
RACIST, but it’s NYC, I give a rat’s ass.
Zohran did not kill himself.
If you read the article, you realize the oddities of the NYC tax code have higher rates for poorer people. I’m a proponent of “everybody pays the same rate”. I doubt he means that. He’ll not stop at equal rates.
Mamdani = Nose of the camel under the tent flap.
Come for the promise of free stuff, stay for the Sharia law.
igots some yt-paper with brown stuff on it you can try to tax – available for collection upon request
“Further more someone should beat this asshole to a pulp and ask him if that felt like a social construct.”
Depends on where he gets the pulp last. 🤣
NYC libs deserve him. How fast will he defund police? How fast will crime rise? How fast will people flee?
as a resident of NYC (Queens) I agree with all nof the above posts. issue with the city is voter turnout. there are over 1mil+ residents in the 5 boroughs that make up NYC yet only about 200k show up to vote. So the dems flood the housing market g projects with voting machines and these yardages all vote for who is offering the most freebies every fuckin time and half of the freebies never come to fruition

If I’m to pay a tax for being white, then I get a pass on calling this asshole a commie sand ni66er cunt.
