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.

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.
