They’ve got SD cards and headphone jacks too.

Graphene is designed to restrict a lot of choices (and root access) to be secure by default, Lineage is designed to give you root control over everything. Very different approaches.

ICE get the GOSH DARN HECK out of our CITY! Two more cautions and then I’m giving you a warning!

Video a little more convincing, but even then, why’s the browser clipped off? I’m guessing UserScripts in the top right corner.

“Israel App Store”? IDK man

He’s the equivalent of the federal President at the municipal level. Appointments, veto power, managing the entire bureaucracy, plus the bully pulpit with a national platform at this point. And he’s already squandering it before he’s even in office. More power than anyone else in NYC.

What is the “Lol” about? You want to have a conversation where you just trash somebody else, then get lost.

Nobody is talking about him replacing the entire NYPD?

You’re the one missing the point. Politicians sell out to get into their positions. We don’t want concessions from a minority in power, the people must be in power. Mamdani led with rhetoric that he would upset that somehow, and is already giving every indication of compromising on every meaningful front. This may be your first rodeo but it’s not ours.

From a governmental/political office? Whose political stances dictate the actions of government officers? The fuck are you talking about. NYPD under Tisch did the brutal crackdowns on the encampments.

Anti LOCAL labor, a crucial distinction. Not even “anti”, really just decreasing their relative position, putting aside whether or not that position is already above others.

So, a policy to enforce that raises the rights of one nationality above another. What do we call that? “National” “socialism”?

You understand the idea of an empire pillaging the world and then trying to restrict access to the spoils?

Illusion of being emphatic from a principled stance.

“No expectation of privacy in public” is a legal doctrine. I do have an expectation of privacy in public. Stop filming me and shit, mind your own damn business.

The entire segment he got famous for was that “Israel has a right to exist as a state with equal rights” clip. With people pretending that was some kind of radical take and not literally the “Israeli” propaganda about what their state is. And now here’s definitively proven them wrong. So what is his value? “MAGA tears”?

The doubletalk before he gets elected is advance warning that his policies won’t reflect his pre-office behavior.

I did not really mind the Palestine comments because he basically denies the state of Israel in the way he framed it.

But stated the opposite. His words (maybe slightly paraphrasing) - “Israel has a right to exist as a state with equal rights”. That’s not denying it. That’s defining its “right to exist” within the same terms they themselves use to describe it. The correct, truthful answer is “states don’t have a right to exist”. We don’t have time for clever riddles that play both sides.

You should work on your skills at interpreting political speech. It’s about positioning yourself in terms of sentiments, not making explicit, accurate statements. The fact that he’s even engaging in this kind of thing shows you he’s false, right off the bat.

The very video about Palestine he got famous for, he was already full of shit in. “Israel has a right to exist… (as a state with equal rights)”? No. It doesn’t. States don’t have a right to exist and that state is predicated on claiming to have equal rights while being institutionalized apartheid.

This is more of the same. I left NYC, among other reasons, because it’s a miniature police state, with the NYPD leading the charge. The fuck is he even going to do as mayor if he’s not going to rein them in?
