Daily Mail is pure garbage.

    “Takes away lane of road from motorists” is a wild way to say “Created a bus lane”. These people need help.

      This is as ugly as you feel it is. Dumb people only read the headline, so newspapers written for dumb people try to jam all the points they want to make in the article into the headline.

    Let me get my daily fail headline translator out real quick:

    “Came under fire” == “somebody tweeted”

    “Fury” == “a bot tweeted”

    “Outrage” == “one of our staff tweeted”

    “Slammed” == “somebody liked our tweet”

    “White female mamdani” is just fucking insane 💀 Also seattle is extremely woke compared to the rest of the us so good luck creating backlash. Its gonna be all the people from several states away who have nothing to do with it that complain. Same thing with NY, a lot of the people saying how “new york will fall” were from texas and whatever.

      Also seattle is extremely woke

      It’s a satrap of the Boeing/Amazon Imperium with all the existential horror that implies.

      Case in point, Seattle hosts no less than five Superfund Sites for toxic waste cleanup. You cannot fish in several of it’s major waterways due to the accumulated contamination.

      It was a major perpetrator of Red Lining, creating enormous ghettos that suffer from neglect and hyper-policing to this day.

      But we don’t have anyone in the City Council screaming the N-word during campaign events or promising to deport 100M people if elected to higher office, so it gets the reputation of Woke by comparison.

      Same thing with NY, a lot of the people saying how “new york will fall” were from texas and whatever.

      Corpus Christi is on the verge of losing water pressure across the entire municipality, because the city administration looted the funds for desalination facilities too aggressively.

      That’s just the tip of the iceberg on Texas politics right now.

      But sure, they’ve made a cottage industry of heckling the other major economic heavyweights in the country.

        The “compared to the rest of the us” carried a lot of weight in my argument and you left that out in quoting me but other than that yeah i agree.

    Daily Hate doing its thing with "White Female Mamdani

    Each of those three words designed to reinforce the rightwing views How dare a WOMAN make decisions! Suggests that weak willed white people being converted to Brown people thinking! We should not allow bus lanes even though they routinely carry 20% of the population.

    The fuck is the Daily Mail doing writing about the USA anyway? You’re a British shite rag, stay in your lane.

    Probably why I have no idea what a white female mamdani even is. Why write it if we’re not going to even understand it over here…

    That’s crappy newspapers for you I suppose!

    How dare she make it cheaper and more convenient to take public transit than it is to own a $40,000 initial cost constant money hole!
