    I totally get this, and we shouldn’t forget how politics is not the be all end all.

    However, the “entertainment” isn’t nothing – it also does serve as propaganda for our side (especially if Zohran delivers some of those things in his platform). Is he perfect? Hell no. But say he manages to implement free buses or something – it will be good for socialists more generally.

      Estonia has free buses. Most of europe had free buses for Ukrainian refugees, how is this translating into support for socialism? I guess magically wishing socialism (I guess communism is too radical now) into existence, by calling cuba and Venezuela evil dictatorships when the us is closing in to invade them? By wanting to appoint Zionists into the city government, by not abolishing the NYPD??
