“Truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are…”

“All things are subject to interpretation. Whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

Still true.
You're absolutely right. I'm going through it now and it is both physically and emotionally draining. The hardest part is finding time (and permission from yourself) to self care. I didn't and ended up fracturing my ankle just getting out of chair because I was so physically and emotionally drained.

You'd have to believe magic exists if he'd be able to "Freeze rents. Free municipal buses. Free day care for all New Yorkers ages six weeks to 5 years." Who wouldn't love that? It's the actualization of his platform that will require some magic without having spent much time in nyc gov't realities.

Perhaps no one at the Republican convention read the signs they were holding up
www.theguardian.com/us-news/arti...
Republicans cheer for ‘mass deportation’ – a dark new chapter in America’s history of othering ‘them’
The convention celebrated Trump’s vision of immigration as a disease. The GOP idea of a cure would mean I, and millions of others, would not exist

That's true, but Democrats do it too. In the NYC race for mayor, Andrew Cuomo refuses to pronounce Zohran Mamdani's name correctly even when Mamdani corrects him. (*this is not an endorsement for either candidate)
