They are getting what they voted for.
quote:

NEW YORK — In one of his first acts in office on Thursday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani revoked the city’s implementation of an antisemitism definition that includes some forms of Israel criticism, in a sweeping rejection of his predecessor’s executive orders.

The mass revocation of those executive orders also canceled other pro-Israel measures taken by the former mayor, Eric Adams.

Mamdani, a far-left anti-Zionist, took office with the start of the new year, replacing Adams’s staunchly pro-Israel administration.

In one of Mamdani’s first moves as mayor, he issued an executive order that revoked all executive orders Adams implemented since September 26, 2024, when Adams was indicted for corruption. The corruption charges were later dismissed amid allegations of shady dealings between Adams and the Justice Department of US President Donald Trump.

Mamdani’s campaign said the revocations would ensure “a fresh start for the incoming administration.”

He may be a broken clock on this one.

Americans should be able to criticize any government foreign or domestic.

Im fine with this

Free speech should allow for criticism of Israel

Free speech should allow for just about everything

This is technically true but singling it out as separate from this

seems deliberately misleading.

The IHRA is moving target bullshite.

The commie muzzy is right on this.

quote:

Mamdani’s sweeping revocation covers Adams’s implementation of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, which says that some forms of Israel criticism are antisemitic.

Did Trump folks do some sketchy shite or is that sentence literally just meant to hurt Trump in an article having nothing to do with him?

The idiots of that city deserve chaos and ruin but the joke is ultimately on us taxpayers because we’ll be forced to save the city from itself and bail them out after their little experiment with Leftist Socialist utopia brings about it’s all too predictable disastrous consequences.

People have been focusing on his political beliefs. It's his satanic cult devotion that needs to be addressed.

Good.


Mamdani is going to be a complete and utter disaster as mayor, but the race baiting bullshite language in the IHRA was patently absurd. Broken clocks still get things right on occasion.

So you think people shouldn't be able to criticize Israel? That's insane.

Hard to believe that I would agree with Mamdani, but the IHRA definition violates free speech:

"Mamdani’s sweeping revocation covers Adams’s implementation of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, which says that some forms of Israel criticism are antisemitic.

The definition has been adopted by a broad range of national and local governments worldwide as well as other institutions. It has also drawn opposition from those who say its inclusion of some forms of criticism of Israel chills legitimate political speech."

Criticism of the State of Israel is not antisemitic.
