      There’s been a lot of positivity about Zohran Mamdani lately. A socialist winning even just a primary in the largest city in America is a big threat. So there’s currently a big push to tamp down on that and portray the movement as politically unviable and a handout to the far-right.

      No. There isn’t. This is just an incredibly flimsy strawman argument that fails to conceptualize that there are alternatives to voting when it comes to exerting one’s political will.
