Charlie Kirk - The most fascinating part of Zohran Mamdani's political rise isn't that he's a race Marxist who wants to globalize the intifada, tax whiter neighborhoods or "seize the means of production."

It's how public he is about it. - Jayne Friedman

Historically, the left had to put a lot more effort into reassuring middle America 

• that they didn’t really believe in those things, 
• that they weren’t really radicals, and 
• their proposals were for the greater good.
• Immigration, welfare, and the like made life better for everyone, or so the story went.

But not anymore. 

• Now, the message is "The third world is here, we're taking your stuff and there's nothing you can do about it. Pay up, whitey." 
• And for a lot of people, that message works.

That’s a dangerous place. 

• It means either they win and we lose, or we win and they lose. 

We must win.
