"Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani on Tuesday beat disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic NYC mayoral primary—but progressives within and beyond the city don't expect the billionaire class and party establishment that lined up against him to give up so easily. Going into the general election, those who believe in Mamdani's vision are encouraging him and his supporters to maintain the momentum of the movement they've built."

I'm here for it. Let's go, let's get them. The more they're scared, the better. I'm tired of bullshit. Let's make life better, not worse.

That would be genius. Let them yell about it in the media until everyone knows that guillotines are on the menu.
