I don't know if I can blame New York Democrats for the everyday person voting for a garbage candidate. Millions of people voted for Donald Trump knowing he was a criminal but choosing to believe it was all just the hoax and made up.
I'm 100% sure that the vast majority of New York Republicans would easily vote for George Santos if it meant that it kept the Democrat out of office. That's like blaming Hillary Clinton for people voting for Donald Trump like that's absolutely stupid.

Manhattan exists and is able to support all the buildings in such close proximity because of the bedrock known as Manhattan schist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan#Bedrock
There are several places where the schist rises above the ground, or outcroppings so you can see what lies beneath. New York is essentially built on a rocky mountain.

And there's literally no cracks/gaps in the rock that would let water in?

Nah, mid to late 2000's. Stop making silly assumptions regarding Fox, it's getting old.

I didn't down vote for what it's worth. Tbh the NY democrats completely fumbled things and are a major reason there's a narrow GOP majority in the house right now.

No I would call this socialism. The workers own the means of production and are able to keep the surplus value produced by their labor. It's great. That's how it should be. They can decide for themselves what hours they work, what tasks they perform, how profits are divided, etc., instead of the owner dictating all of that to them and keeping the profits for himself. A lot of people don't realize how much socialism we already have in the US. I would describe every mom-and-pop store, sole proprietorship, credit union, worker co-op, etc., as socialism. It's already here in some places and works great. We just need more of it.

When in 1993? Fox isn't reality.

Who here painted you as a racist, bud? Are they in the room with us? Seems like a victim complex to me.
Trump supporters… can be black. The whole OP is about a black man committing a hate crime and vandalizing shit. This seems to be coming from your own feelings towards whiteness and the assumptions that follow.
I’m glad your wife and kids enjoy talking about race, me too. I’m not sure any black or biracial person enjoys being used by a white partner or family member as a way to bolster their own opinion with strangers on the internet. Genuinely, ask your wife if she wants to be used for karma on reddit.
You’re popping into a thread and getting mad at the people pointing out that there are black Trump supporters and that there’s no purpose in bringing up Trump unless one is purposefully being inflammatory. I don’t see you speaking out against any of the other genuine racists that have popped into this thread. That’s so wild to me, saying you’re anti-racist, propping your family up as proof you care (which lmao I’m biracial ‘mY fAmIlY iS bLaCk’ literally means nothing to me and ignoring the fact that caring doesn’t stop the potential for racism, but that would mean being capable of any introspection which you seem to lack), and then doing nothing in a sea of racists except getting mad that people point out black Trump supporters exist. Lmao you’re a joke.
But damn, white saviour to the rescue!!! What will us poor poc do without you, Mr. Black Family Man?
Edit: You bring up your family on a regular basis for reddit arguments based off your comment history. Oof, bud. They’re more than props, and it takes more than having a couple of children to be anti-racist. No one in the thread you originally replied to was denying black people commit hate crimes. They were criticizing the original comment that brought up Trump and rightfully brought up there are still black Trump supporters. No one brought up white Trump supporters or denied the fact that a black man committed a crime. That all came from you, and you using your family to justify the tirade is weird as hell. I’d say it’s racist but you definitely seem like the type to immediately claim I’m calling you a racist. Psych “especially in light of the accusations presented” lmaoooo Anti-racist can’t handle being told that their actions can be interpreted as racist. Sounds about right.

NYC subways were all built to bring people to Manhattan. We need more interborough, where you don't have to go into Manhattan to get to another borough (say Brooklyn to Queens, or Bronx to Queens).

Why would he resign? He has a guaranteed 2 year contract. He gets paid $180,000 a year plus other benefits. I would not quit either. Most of the people calling for him to quit are democrats.
amazing how people on here think you can just guilt people into resigning. If I was George Santos I would just take the money and not quit. I have a high paying job for 2 years.

Not sure why I got downvoted for asking who lol
The funny thing is republican leadership that got him elected KNEW about half of this beforehand and still decided he was good enough. I'm pretty sure he'll never resign and keep getting that sweet government money.
Very infuriating when you're the average Joe wondering when your next check is gonna be enough to cover bills and food.

Manhattan is basically solid bedrock, much of it exposed (or was before being built up).

Grand Central Madison lowest platform level. It hasn't looked like that for maybe 5 years.

It's built into their religion (which many of them don't even believe in but it gives good cover). You can be a murderer, a rapist, etc., and you can just convert to Christianity at the end and go to Heaven.

Surprised? When I think of some GREAT public servants who resigned for NOTHING, and I see the shitshow of the GOP now, I am amazed. They simply cannot be shamed.
