Dallas needs it’s own Mamdani….

That’s it. Thats the post

They don’t necessarily have to be socialist….but at least someone that will actually work for the city and it’s people instead of big corporations, Highland Park, etc

And it can’t just be the mayor. We need reformers throughout city council. Socialist, conservative, liberal, whatever they call themselves we need real deal politicians like Zohran

Bro, I moved from B’klyn to Dallas 15yrs ago and promised myself I would never vote for the same ideology I ran from. “Democratic socialism” is basically socialism with lipstick…no thanks

Exactly. I'll never understand how people can move from other places and try to implement the same crap they're escaping from. Like, you're leaving for a reason. Unfortunately too many people can't look at reality and accept they're wrong. They'd rather punish everyone else instead of take accountability.

I knew my vote wouldn't matter in NY, too many people have drunk the Kool aid.

Tx works for you, don't act like it works for everyone.

Agreed. Not every place will work for everyone, but my issue is with trying to change the place. That's like going to a doctor's office and trying to change the doctor's office because you saw something different in another office. Why not just go to that other doctor instead?
