In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

The audacity of @ZohranKMamdani to cite Dr. Martin Luther King should make your skin crawl. King adamantly rejected anti-white racism.

Mamdani’s call for higher taxes on white neighborhoods should shock New Yorkers. If they elect him as Mayor then they will have no excuses.

This guy's ability to lie so calmly while smiling should send chills up the spines of every New Yorker.

He could have taken it down and said, "You know, I regret that the website said that and so I deleted it, because it doesn't express what I believe."

The website of NYC mayoral frontrunner says he'll "shift the tax burden" to "whiter neighborhoods." When asked about his openly racist agenda, @ZohranKMamdani insists it's not a proposal at all but rather "a description of what we see right now." That's next-level gaslighting.😬

The statement 'Gas-lighting comes so easily to this guy' is a personal attack and dismissive in tone. It does not engage constructively with the issues being discussed, such as tax policy or racial implications, and instead focuses on discrediting the individual.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement violates the principle of striving to do no harm with words, as it uses a derogatory term to attack a person's character. [-2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    It does not respect the dignity of others, engaging in a form of cyberbullying by labeling someone as a 'gas-lighter.' [-2]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement fails to engage in constructive criticism or dialogue, opting for a personal attack instead of addressing the policy issues at hand. [-2]
