“We’re going to need the help of robots and other forms of, uhhh, I guess you could say employment,” he said, shrugging. “We’re going to be employing a lot of artificial things.”

    He was one of the best presidents since Jimmy Carter and the country and the world would be better off with him in power vs Trump.

      That just goes to show how bad the US is at electing leaders. Just terrible, even when good options do exist, to the point that I still don’t fully believe Mamdani is the New York Mayor.

          That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.

              I don’t take anything for granted in North America. We just elected the most obviously corrupt person to be mayor of Montréal and even the total left/right votes between the four major parties skewed significantly right because we’re stupid as hell.

                I think in any healthy society he would have crushed with like 70% of the vote but he barely won which is pretty sad.

                  Against his competion a healthy society would have looked at Cuomo and thrown him in the fucking garbage and Mamdani would have gotten 90%. Ya’ll gotta raise your standards, even if you don’t raise your expectations.
