Molly O’Shea(@MollySOShea):David @friedberg on the "cult of socialism" and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani: "Part of socialism is like multi-level marketing." "There's an aspect of: you just gotta sign up one person per day." "The other thing they're really good at in socialism in driving adoption is to create spectacle, like Zohran Mamdani jumping in the pool. These viral moments in front of a desk. Knocking on the glass in front of Ken Griffin's condo." "Those viral moments that we've all seen, that we all watch, are key to the strategy. It's the spectacle, it draws people in, and then it's about recruiting."
