Immediately assuming every single Jewish person is a Zionist is simultaneously antisemitic and extremely Zionist behavior.

Too much NY nativism discourse, nearly everyone's welcome in NYC except for:
-people who stand still on the subway stairs to text
-people who make a human chain while walking in Midtown
-people who put their backpack on a subway seat and refuse to move it so the elderly can sit

a lot of NYC nativists would bulldoze the city and replace it with copypasta single family houses, highways, parking lots, and drive thrus if they had their way - turning NYC into Ohio
Nia 🪩@_johnsonator
it’s ironic how transplants get accused for turning NYC into the suburbs, while the accusers want more car infrastructure and single family homes. make it make sense.

my hot take on gentrification is the average person doesn’t understand that gentrification isn’t usually a function of individuals, but of big business restructuring neighborhoods, so gentrification takes often sounds indistinguishable from far right anti-immigrant sentiments

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor
New Yorkers, join us in the first ever Mayor’s Municipal Madness: a competition of city fixes where everyone wins. City workers fix thousands of tiny annoyances every year, from broken basketball rims to bike path bumps. This year, we’re highlighting 16 of those fixes. From the exacerbating eight to the frustrating four, every item in each round will be repaired…but you’ll be voting on which fix will be done by me on day 100 of our admin. Round one of voting starts right now: nyc.gov/madness

every american transit agency thinks its project is uniquely complex. no it isn't. cities denser than yours with harder geology and older utilities built subways for a fifth of the price. the complexity is not in the ground it's in the org chart

neoliberals will tell you that it was worth 22 million dollars to have mckinsey tell you that in order to solve the trash situation in new york you need trash bins

Leaving aside the fact that this person is in Oklahoma (???): I’ve lived in NYC for 23 years and I want all those things. At some point will I graduate into having the right to influence policy, or do people who went to Bayside High School get 5 votes to my 1 forever?
OKC@victor_okc
heres the problem. You are a transplant. You want all those things because it conveniences you and others who come here from the midwest or down south, that raise rents, gentrifies neighborhoods, and price out native NYers. Nobdoy gaf what you want

We do not consult the public when we make aviation standards, we should not do it for trains. You can't expect every citizen to be an expert on all aspects of public policy. Voters elect and nominate experts to solve that for them.

the city is not for everyone and that's ok but some people are also just really, really bad at living in the city
Simone & Malcolm Collins@SimoneHCollins
Can someone explain to us what urban 34-year-olds are doing in the cities that's so fun and special? We remember walking to the grocery store, trying to pack a week's worth of food into a small fridge and freezer, and maybe being robbed blind for mediocre food at a restaurant.
