Car-hater Ben Furnas has been appointed to Mamdani’s transition team for transportation, climate and infrastructure – and his agenda is a nightmare for the city’s drivers.
A little different from “objectively cool and good,” though, right?
Also that just excuses electing imperialists at any level lower than congress. American Socialism without internationalism is just making the camp busses run on time

getting whiplash between all the malding about the YIMBY neoliberal and the objectively cool and good* this guy.

fortunately mayors don’t make foreign policy.
that makes it worse that he said anything about it at all, but it’s also hard to say it tangibly matters.

sorry for the ambiguity, i was contrasting the YIMBY appointee we were mad about last week with this Furnas guy apparently being good.
Mamdani was and remains not revolutionary.
Cursed myself before because of the Trump meeting (again, sorry about that.) and now this looks promising.
Cautious optimism it is.
practicing anti-dialectics regarding Mamdani, I simply rewrite my brain entirely based on the last thing I heard about him
