Ok, unlike the other commenter, you are engaging and this is a fair point.
I don't know enough about the Nepal and South Korea case to assess how fast it took: Yes, it looked like a week to international observers who aren't reading the Nepal Daily or whatever, but I'd want to here from people on the ground about how much or how little lead up and organization there was leading up to the tipping points.
But that's not disagreeing with you - just saying I genuinely don't know if you're right or not, but I do appreciate the comparisons.
I'm a bit confused on how quickly you expect political change to happen...do you think the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of No Kings can be assessed a week on?
Imagine you were in Birmingham during the bus boycott - after a week you'd be out there saying "look! We did this and nothing happened!"
I don't love everything about no kings, the tactics, and the messaging. But give it a second, dude!
I don't think so. Its just not necessary. Especially in a city like New York, there will just be a Capital Strike to make sure Mamdani fails at everything he tries. Then they'll blame socialism.
Hey @geneva_convenience
Always love your posts! Just wanted to say that J Post is a far-right tabloid rag. So just suggesting that you try to find other sources for stuff like this in the future (not denying the truth of this story though).
It's for extradition to the UK, I think this is outside of his purview.
