Politics nyc mayor Zohran Mamdani
A woman posted an innocent selfie declaring her vote for the NYC mayoral candidate and the avalanche of unhinged Maga replies is a terrifying snapshot of America right now
Today’s social (media) experiment gone wrong comes to us courtesy of the New York City Mayoral race.
It starts with the Twitter account @Baileymoon15. She Tweets all sorts of funny stuff about pop culture and New York City and food and politics. That last one there is the problem (apparently).
Recently, Moon shared that she voted early for NYC Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. It was in response to someone else who had Tweeted against such an idea. Here’s the post (and the original post it was responding to).

Have fun with the intifada

And to top them all off, there’s this batshit insane, clearly-AI-generated, pompous attempt at a takedown:
This is the vanity that ignites the bonfire of self-sabotage, where privilege masquerades as defiance and the mirror eclipses the map.
The ponytail pulled high, like a flag of casual conquest. The earbud dangling, a whisper of distraction in an already echo-chambered mind. The… https://t.co/lLnXEMFidL pic.twitter.com/fdd76f3TXU
