This really should be considered fraud.
If I advertise something that never has been and never will be, knowingly, that’s fraud.

It is fraud. It’s another instance of “this technology is too different, it surely can’t be judged by the rules we already have” type of rule-breaking
Uber and Lyft’s illegal taxis
The internet’s illegal spying
AI’s illegal theft and redistribution of IP
12 daysI was against Mandani, but the guy has been coming out with good decisions after good decisions for New Yorkers. Yeah, I don’t agree with him in a lot, but New York chose him for specific reasons, and the guy is delivering.

What part are you possibly against? Are you a Republican voter or what is it?
Disagree with Mandani = Republican? So Disagreeing with Trump makes me a Democrat, right? That’s exactly the problem, labeling people that think different in any way shape or form. No wonder the US is falling to pieces.

you still didn’t answer the question what did you not agree on with Mandani
I was against all the evidently inflamed promises of free buses, city run grocery stores and the elimination of the homeless encampment sweeps. And, by the way, I was right all along, he had to pedal back in all 3 of them, because they were, as with every other politician, right, left or center, just campaign noise to incite the masses. Those are all doable, all 3 of them, but they all require careful planning and a shitload of time and money, to avoid making things worse in the long term. Those, and a few other promises that were impossible to achieve in the way he painted them, were the reasons I didn’t like the guy. I still don’t like him, for the exact same reasons. Full disclosure, I like Cuomo and Adams even less, those fucking dinosaurs just wanted to suck on more of the people’s money than they already had. Now, as much as I dislike that Mandani is more of the same promise-ridden bullshit, I’m still gladly surprised by the things he has actually accomplished, and in record time.
Unfortunately, much like in the last presidential race, where the US had only horrible options to pick from, New York didn’t really have any “stellar” choices. Glad to see Mandani was the least bad for NYC.
Another thing I have been right about all along, any disagreement with anyone will create execution squads made out of the fanboys and fangirls of that individual, even when proven accurate. This is why the US is in such a decline now. Get fucking together and understand that both sides want that hate between left and right to spread. We’re all nothing but fuckong sheep for both sides.
Don’t give a fuck about the right or left, only about what is beneficial to most, but it needs to make sense. The math has to make fucking sense, Mandani’s never did.

emphasis mine. does not sound like they “pedaled back”. how many years was he in office not completing those promises of his? it seems just barely more than a half. such a bad politician for not cramping years of work into 7 months. a real good politician would deliver careful planning rapidly like that.
Like I said at the beginning, I love the things that he has achieved, and I have no issue being transparent about what I don’t like about him, but honor where honor is due. He surprised me, in a good way, I hope he can keep doing just that. Has he turned around from being an over-promising politician? Hopefully, but as with any other politician, I’m not holding my breath. Whether this makes me a left or right wing person, I’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter because some, if not most already decided for me.
