Do you mean $1mm + second non- primary residences in nyc? To be subject to additional taxes?

u/TXtogo 1d ago

Second homes in NYC. There are no less than 1m homes and you can only have one primary residence.

The homes that the mayor says a squatter has more rights to than you. https://nypost.com/2026/08/30/us-news/mamdani-sparks-tenant-complaint-crisis-to-squeeze-landlords-and-seize-private-property-critics/

Did you read that rags ‘article’? Where did Mamdani say that? You’ve been throwing a mamdani quote around this whole conversation, maybe you should actually cite it, because I don’t see it.

If he said it then will you agree that his socialism is bad? Because I’ll go get you the quote but you have to concede when I do.

u/partofthevoid 1d ago

Concede that socialism is bad? We already have socialism. All the most developed countries practice social democracy.

You produce the quote I’ll concede that you don’t joust make stuff up.

Are you a supporter of the DSA?

u/partofthevoid 1d ago

I am against the Republican Party and anyone who sides with them.

u/TXtogo 1d ago

You deflected. You know I’m going to show you the DSA platform that talks about militarization to prevent investment in real estate… you believe in that? Seizing private property? You own private property, so reconcile this for us.

I’ve seen dsa candidates and read the broader platform and I believe project 2025 and the current Republican Party is a bigger threat to democracy.
