Sorry, I see people in these comments blaming the DNC for these ancient third party cucks and went into full defensive mode.

Perhaps you should reflect on why you feel the need to play defense for establishment Democrats despite claiming to support the paradigm shift that Zohran Mamdani represents. You have been obsessively commenting all over this thread trying to deflect criticism of the DNC by gaslighting people into believing that the DNC are all supporting Zohran Mamdani and that all these centrists coming out against him are outsiders. Are you secretly a campaign consultant for Biden or something?

Because Zohran Mamdani is the DNC candidate, and like any DNC candidate is the only barrier between us and the barbarism of the GOP paying fealty for greed and means of force like the centuries before our societies developed rule by the people.

Mamdani is not a paradigm shift because 4% of his stances differ.
