Did you not see his reaction to the protest last night? It hardly evokes the warm fuzzies.

Josh explains it better than me, so read his thread, and the referenced article for details if you don't know what I'm talking about.

And it's not like this was a one-time thing, just the latest example.
Extraordinarily weak (but very on brand) statement from Mamdani. The organizers of this protest call every Israeli a settler and a legitimate target of violence. We don't need to pretend this was about anything else, we just need to listen to what the organizers of this event are actually saying.

This is what happens when democratic norms erode and bigotry becomes mainstream. And when swastikas and nooses are reduced to “divisive” symbols, it is a reminder that every community targeted by hate is in this together.

This lesson — that nearly everyone acts in a self-interested manner and would gladly sacrifice a best friend if it helped them or their children — is useful. It impels me to act in manners that increase the odds of people not having to make these choices.

Because I know the choices that they'd make

What a harrowing experience. So outrageously unprofessional, inappropriate, and threatening.

I Hate that disgusting behaviour like this is still considered acceptable.

And by "Poland" they generally don't mean Krakow or Lublin, more like Treblinka or Sobibor

me too, but that still exposes us to plenty of nastiness, as for instance when seemingly normal people respond with some vile blood libel [or similar] in a reply to an innocuous post.
