@SolitarySolace I Think it failed before it began. The man is an obvious throwback to an earlier time, and country, using idiotic terms like - "Proletariat"? I mean, what the hell is/was the man thinking? This half-wit thinks he is in Russia, during the Bolshevik Revolution? The dictatorship of the Proletariat" My God, help us all

[Bricealan]

@SolitarySolace Thanks for theMHO

[exitseven]

And... soon beg for a BAIL OUT!

[strateguy632]

Yes free busses are not worth it.

And don't forget how london mayor sends london cops to harass facebook users! Mayor leads cops! Also besides mass exodus, losing population, losing taxpayers! In picture

Mamdani already failed... snd begging for donations from the poor made it all uglier!

Can't even have a nice day at the beach anymore...

Here's my dilemma. Should they leave or should they stay and fight?

It happened in a town near me. Somali population grew and grew, taxes were soaring, property values tanked, education system tanked... it went to shit. But I chose to leave. Along with many others. And they've been taking it over ever since.

[beefcakebradybatson]

First, genius, Mamdani has yet to assume the Mayor's office. Secondly, taxes and regulations are FAR HIGHER in Gotham than, say, Dallas or Atlanta, driving out SOME corporations, but many remain because New York City has the most cachet of any American city.

[lightbulb27]

I've heard this directly from people whom are with the decision makers, but it's been going on for a while and not saying it's in the volumes as yet.

Will texans actually accept the same people that polluted nyc with their minds?

[slatyb]

There is no mass exit from NYC and there won't be. For everyone who does leave, there will be three people wanting to move to NYC. I would consider it, but apartments in Manhattan are even more expensive than here in Seattle.

[Pterodon]

Not entirely true. The corporations and rich will leave and the ones coming in won’t be corporations or wealthy. They’re just there to get free stuff he promised. Problem is he won’t have any money to do those promises because his source for all that money has left

[blackeagle007]

A studio is probably 4k there. And that’s smaller than a 1 bed

[slatyb]

@blackeagle007 That depends on the location. It varies widely.

[slatyb]

@Pterodon We'll wait and see. I would bet you a considerable sum that they won't.

[Pterodon]

Why wouldn’t they? They’re being vilified and penalized for being successful

[Pterodon]

The problem with socialism is you’ll eventually run out of other people’s money.
— Margaret Thatcher

[slatyb]

@Pterodon Because they want to live in New York. There's nowhere else in the United States like it. The best theater, the best music, the best food, the best art -- the best culture of every kind.

[blackeagle007]

Agreed. While living in NYC isn’t for me but anyone wants to live there, so be it.

[Pterodon]

It’s also the highest taxed and highest cost of living. Only scum live there on handouts

[slatyb]

@Pterodon And yet, somehow, it produces about 10% of the US GDP.

[Pterodon]

We don’t need it

[blackeagle007]

@Pterodon how do you know? Both nyc and California are vital to this economy. Is your major in economics?

[Pterodon]

Keep dreaming. We don’t need or want you

[Pterodon]

You want your socialism? Take it and go. You’ll end up just like the rest that’s tried it. You’ll get no US aid of any kind

[blackeagle007]

@Pterodon Epstein files! Release them!

[DryGermanGuy]

Has Tim Poop considered that a real mass exodus would actually help Mamdani to achieve some of his agenda goals, e. g. with more available and affordable housing?

[Pterodon]

But his tax revenue ie the corporations and wealthy he wants base his economy on are leaving

[DryGermanGuy]

Is there a publicly available list of corporations that are leaving? So far this is just the usual internet clowns mouthing off, no? How about giving that man a chance, he isn’t even in office yet!

[ABC1x1x]

That was their goal all along. To crater property value. So rhthe rich can buy up property in default and the losers commies that left NYC and moved to good states like Texas and Florida could run them into the fucki g ground.

[loveslongnails]

This is maga horseshit, as usual, as evidenced that any banker in their right mind would NEVER go from NY to Texas. LMAO.

[Mike_Whocheese_Harry]

uh-uh. They don't get to leave. We need to have ICE deport them back to NYC

[DrPepper12]

Odd. No data from realtors or MLS. Anecdotes & social media is not factual bruh

[Sal_Monella]

If they move to my state, I just hope they vote Republican.

[msc545]

Another conspiracy theory of being peddled by another conspiracy theorist here on gag. More lies. Do people ever stop lying?

[Pterodon]

When has socialism ever worked?

[blackeagle007]

@Pterodon a sad k anyone in Canada or Sweden

[blackeagle007]

Ask I mean

[Pterodon]

That isn’t socialism it’s just extremely high taxes on everyone

[blackeagle007]

@Pterodon high taxes are crappy but either way, you’re paying for something

[Pterodon]

Americans will not pay those kinds of taxes

[Pterodon]

That isn’t socialism. It’s just extremely high taxes on everyone

[strateguy632]

On those earning 1 million$ or more. But think, 3.9% of my 7,000$ salary 280$ is FAR LESS than even SMALLER percentage 2% of a 20,000$ salary, 400! Rich DO PAY MORE, and their fair share even with SMALL PERCENT! Raising percent is unfair!

[Pterodon]

I don’t believe you

[strateguy632]

So use a calculator, 0.04 x 7000 and 0.02 x 20,000 now believe me?

[In_Trance]

35,000 people is mass Exodus in a city of 10 million?
35,000 people online equates to about 20 in the real world

[AviatorTom]

I'm not sure it ever started.
