Limousine liberals and their fashionable ideas

Quillette: "Gentrifying the Intifada - Zohran Mamdani’s brand of socialism appeals to the luxury beliefs of New York’s middle classes. If his preferred policies are implemented, New Yorkers will suffer—and the poorest of them will be most impacted."

Socialism was once the battle cry of factory workers and coal miners. Today, it’s increasingly the pet ideology of upper-middle-class urbanites sipping fair trade soy lattes and chanting of their wish to globalise an intifada that they know little or nothing about.

They say that a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged.  Given his proposals to defund the police and limit bail requirements, my guess is that Mayor Mamdani is going to generate a lot of conservatives (if they don't move to Florida.)
