New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced a new “block by block” initiative to tackle the city’s affordable housing crisis Tuesday morning.
The plan focuses on 400,000 affordable housing units, enhancing tenant protections and investing in public housing. Some 200,000 of those units will be new, rent-stabilized homes built over the next decade, as well as preserving and stabilizing an additional 200,000 homes.
Cool. You have devolved into the “this conversation is meaningless because it’s on the Internet” defense. I’m annoying. I’m gonna combat this bull shit doomerism if I have 1000 people listening or 1. You’re the one that keeps replying.
You got here because instead of talking about any of the actual material policy objectives, or legitimate criticism, you just blabbered vague doomerism around a good policy being implemented.
When you get called out for it, and it’s made clear you don’t even know the first thing about what you’re critizing, of course you fall into the “I don’t care” shit reply. Stop replying if you don’t care.
If you care enough to reply then actually criticize the policy on its actual implementations.
Hard to criticize a policy that’s not even there. So far we know they want to build 200k units. How? Where? We know it’s “over the next decade” but mayor’s term is 4 years so it’s already assuming Mamdani will win govern at least 3 terms. A policy would be for example saying how they will make building housing more affordable to co-ops than it is for investment founds. And I’m replying because you’re combative stance is amusing. You expect me to draft valid policy for Mamdani while coming up with 0 valid arguments yourself. You just said that building housing units it easy and that I should be happy they will do it. You’re trying to talk like you’re some expert but you just sound like delusional fan. “Don’t you dare doubt Mamdani! I will fight you!”.
