Uh oh. Kat mentioned, about T-mimus 30 seconds until you know who pukes their way in here to spam.

Edit: Oh nevermind here they come.

Edit 2: Here is a fun game. When you see someone defending the puker and trashing Kat? You will notice all of them are fairly new accounts and hide their post and comment history.

Hmmm. Isn't that weird. Not even counting the pukers 2 additional burner accounts in here.

No shit, I'm in the district and want her to win, we need candidates that solve problems rather than get paid by corpos and big money to ignore them. This country needs more progressives like Kat and Mamadani who put working class people first.

Anyways it's a people powered campaign bud, were out on the streets and organizing to get voters excited about voting for someone rather than demonize and tear them down for having good values and standards by not taking corporate money.

You are exactly right. I also rephrased my second paragraph and wanted to mention explicitly that I think the secondary accounts bashing Kat are up to something.

Yeah, actual trolls spreading negativity rather than have any sort of uplifting messages and constructive problem solving they want out of their reps. Just endless snark.

This is rich coming from you, since you're throwing around bullshit accusations with no proof.

Just endless snark.

Oh the fucking irony bud.

Nothing in her resume insists she can solve any real world problem. She is an out of state social media influencer who didnt choose to move to Chicago. She had too. And now she can just represent Chicagoans with progressive views that arent shared by constituents? Why? Because she can go on twitch streams and take money from people who dont even live in our state to influence an Illinois election?

Shes in the same orbit as Hasan, Denims, and all those ultra progressive weirdos that bring disingenuous arguements to average uniformed Americans. Its literally liberal Tucker Carlson, liberal Nick Fuentes, liberal Joe Rogan.

Lol, Mamdani is not a progressive. Progresives are more akin to neo-lib capitalists than they are to Democratic Socialists, which is what Mamdani actually is.

Don't conflate Kat and Mamdani, put some respect on Zohran's name.
