Democratic Socialist Zorhan Mamdani, mayoral candidate for New York City, has already begun laying out his vision if he were to win, wanting to shift tax burdens over to “whiter neighborhoods.”
The idea of doling out more taxes to white people came in the form of a homeowner policy memo, outlining Mamdani’s plans on housing.
“Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods,” one bullet point read. “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 paragraph concluded.
This would likely be challenged in court, with plaintiffs citing the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment in the Constitution.
This sort of proposal basically promises to punish people with punitive taxes simply because they’re white.
It’s racially biased and hypocritical, especially for a Democrat, to offer up policies that are blatantly discriminatory.

If the Dems plan to push people like him going forward, they’ll never win the Presidency again. One word: Pennsylvania. Messages like his will NEVER fly here, and they CANNOT win the Presidency without PA.
NYC is about to get their own version of Tiffany Henyard... but worse.
This is a Democrat Party problem. Let them deal with it.
Technology has made much of why New York exist irrelevant in today’s world. If Democrats continue down this path New York will become just another 3rd world s*it hole with out of control crime and slums.
What’s his plan for when those “whiter” neighborhood become less white because the folks living there become less New Yorker?
Zorhan the Zit just politically slit his throat. There’s a video on X of the Zit faking crying and it’s hilarious.
Stirring up hatred for other people is what Democratic Socialists do.
The Communists did it.
The Nazis did it.
This new crop is doing it. :)
You just succinctly summarized the Obamanation's negative impact on America in just one sentence.
Thank you
I opened one of his books just after he appeared in 2008 - perhaps to exactly the right page - I read one-half of one page
I knew right then that he was spirit of antichrist - and he has proven to be every bit as bad as I expected and oftentimes, worse
The bulk of his support comes from young, childless white libtard trustafarians with degrees from Bowdoin, Columbia, and Oberlin who live in rent-controlled apartments that they inherited from their parents (after they moved to Europe). They list their occupation as "sculptor, artist, and influencer."
They're all in on Mamdani's platform.
And make them wear dog collars
EVERYTHING Obama does......
Get out commie.
Is this code for let’s fleece all those Brooklyn based Jews?

An apt description of ‘useless eaters’, non-producers who contribute virtually nothing to the advancement of our society - basically the ‘Eloi’. Unfortunately there are not enough ‘Morlocks’ in our midst to thin the ‘Eloi’ population significantly.
i have never heard of a cap on assessments
socialism only “works” if the sheep are penned in
it’ll be fun
we finally get to see if socialism really works
bwaaaahaaaahaaaaaaaa
