if you want to actually push left-wing policies and build power you need deliver change to voters. if you're purely concerned with messaging to a handful of brain damaged twitter leftists you will never actually improve people's lives.

part of what I like about Mamdani is his admission that housing affordability is a more complex problem than either building more housing or expanding rent control. You need to do both in order to protect the most vulnerable now and improve the problem long term.
