CNN always wants to say left-wing radicals are less radical than you think, according to "some experts." They're never going to perform that trick for conservatives. CNN reporter Nathaniel Meyersohn attempted to mainstream socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s demented push for government-owned grocery stores.
As if anyone needed another reason to make like a banana and split from the decrepit Big Apple.
Meyersohn celebrated Mamdani’s lunatic “plan to create a network of city-owned grocery stores” in a June 30 so-called news item. Meyersohn gaslighted readers by claiming Mamdani’s state-run supermarket was “less radical than critics portray,” according to “experts” he found to make his point.
The CNN reporter acknowledged that the proposal was being “blasted as a ‘Soviet’ style disaster-in-waiting,’ ‘farcical’ and ‘economically delusional,’” but he then took a detour straight into the logical toilet. “But Mamdani is drawing on government-owned and subsidized models that already exist in the United States,” Meyersohn chirped.
Same energy: Government rationing is just the spider’s ankles! Just ask Venezuela or Cuba! CNN’s post of Meyersohn’s story on X is in the middle of getting ratioed straight to hell.

A good discussion? We have over 100 years of communism to show us. This communist’s stated goal is to “seize” production.
The idea of “food deserts” in NYC is laughable. Any areas without supermarkets or even bodegas aren’t profitable for supermarkets or bodegas. And that’s because of theft, other crime, or lack or use. But there is a massive public transportation system in the City and, by regular American standards, supermarkets nearby anyway. Why are there so many fast-food joints? Because they are so heavily used and they are better structured to deter theft.
Good meme.
Yeah, lots of retired government employees get their costly pensions paid in NY while they live in FL!
But NYer politics are indeed toxic. Every so often, NYers hire a GOP mayor (e.g., Rudy) or governor (e.g., Pataki) to smack them into borderline viability again. Stefanik may be voted in to clean up after Hochul a GOP mayor would likely get selected to succeed Mamdani, should he actually get in this year.
When infested with 3rd world peolpe things change for the worse every time.
There were a series of videos of a Cuban visiting his cousin. He was constantly amazed when he went into a Walmart
