Elon musk is conflicted which way to feel about this news.
Its so rare for approval to climb after getting in office… Just proves that actually doing shit is feasible alternative to whatever the establishment has been up to for the best forever.
Who would have thought that doing your job could be so popular?
It helps that every other fucker is just screwing things up in their own particular favor
Probably helps to be I. Your prime creative years, instead of 70+ like most of the rest of our politicians.
Nice.
Niiiiiiiice
Nice.
How do you disapprove of a guy trying to improve your life? I’m guessing the other 30% are a combination of rich assholes and dumb rednecks who know literally nothing about him?
here’s a map from a few weeks ago of Mamdani’s approval ratings. All the wealthy areas have red dissapproval ratings. Something I like to note is the red rectangle just off Central Park is Epstein Alley, the area where the richest assholes own property.New Yorker here to translate.
Manhattan is almsot all green except for a sliver on 5th Avenue near Central Park. That’s the priciest area. Most of the rest of the borough is pretty pricey. even Harlem apartments are getting expensive, now that it’s being gentrified.
Most of the red areas aren’t particularly pricey and certainly aren’t considered high class or exclusive.
The bright red area all the way at the bottom left is the South Shore of Staten Island.
I once met a woman who taught Art History at Staten Island College. She told me that many of her students had never made the trip into Manhattan to visit the Metropolitan Museum, one of the top museums in the world.
For additional context, it’s maybe an hour trip by train feom SI (including a fun ferry ride) and admission is free for Ny’ers at The Met. (Natural history museum too!)
Look for and listen to the Revisionist History: The Staten Island Problem podcast series. It’s really interesting and even points out how Wu Tang Clan rose from that weird island. Plus it seems to have foretold our current stupid politics to a degree.

Yes, the is an authentic NYC government site and yes, there are actual street signs that say ‘Wu Tang District.’
Shaolin was their nickname for Staten Island or their neighborhood there, in their songs too.
The lower the density of housing, the lower the favorability… Interesting
That really red area under the mouse cursor is… Borough Park? Super conservative Jewish area? Or maybe bensonhurst? I live here but am apparently bad at maps.
Yeah, that’s Borough Park, famous for the Orthodox Jewish community doing stuff like diverting public education funds towards private religious schools or having a private bus system that used to require women to sit in the back until an investigation in 2011.
The small red area just northeast is Crown Heights, famous for the hilarious synagogue tunnel story back in 2024. Basically, that area has some very pro-Zionist areas.

It’s all the outskirts except for central Manhattan and surprisingly Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which I thought was part of the Commie Corridor. Flushing is expected considering many first generation Asians are conservative (read: racist) and prefer to vote for a white man.
There is an Orthodox Jewish part of williamsburg
Italians Jews Russians and rich people
They know he’s a Muslim, sadly enough that’s enough for many
As an intelligent Redneck I appreciate the modifier of stupid for my dumbfuck kin. Some of us stick to the old ways and wish to watch the corpos burn, but well we are fleeting nowadays. Though funny enough a lot of people outside the Redneck culture don’t recognize me as Redneck and peg me for the alternative title of American-Scot due to the fact I don’t fit most stereotypes, other Rednecks will look at me for five fucking seconds and proclaim kinship.
Well yeah, redneck is just a word i use to describe people like my uncle who went out at 7am in his tighty-whities with cowboy boots on to feed the horses. Still love the guy, but that shits embarrassing.
Like if it’s on his property does he really need pants on? Like the only embarrassing thing I’m hearing is that he wears tightly whities and not boxer briefs.
I mean, I guess not, and they lived 2 miles from the nearest house. It’s still a weird thing to do that we tease him about to this day.
He should have gotten dressed if you were visiting.
So just the other day I learned where the term redneck came from and I think you may want to go read about it because we are all misappropriating a term originally meant for class/labor solidarity with that of white trash that fuck their siblings and have a combined IQ that if it were an age not high enough to vote.
I grew up with white trash rednecks. Lived with them too. I don’t care what the original definition is. Language changes, and it isn’t being used that way anymore.
About a month ago, a poll showed that about 40% of Dems were aligning with the DemSocs. A couple of weeks ago, a new poll showed it was up to about 60%.
The louder the Corpo-Establishment Dems scream about the DemSocs, the stronger they get.
That will be so hilarious if they Streisand Effect themselves out of power
It’s fairly arguable they Streisand Effected Trump into power
NICE
“Nearly one third of New Yorkers strongly disapprove of the mayors actions.”
Said third failed to name any actions
I get a headline in the NYPost every day about how Zohran Mamdani is doing White Genocide
Lol it’s JJJ screaming about SpiderMan all over again
Except Jonah (at least in the movies) had decent character
Edit Actually, nevermind, Jonah was a prick, his only good deed was not selling Peter out to the goblin
He was a parody of Rupert Murdoch.
Good heavens! Forcing education on the children, where will it end!!
I’m sorry but these are comedy gold
Hmm so strange how you get high approval ratings when your policies are not against the people.
Hmmm 🤔
Except it’s only for NYC, for the rest of the state his approval ratings are actually going down. That’s common though. Urban liberal areas usually think positively of liberal politicians, but when you add in rural areas, their approval ratings drop dramtically. Basically nothing has changed, even with someone as well liked as Mamdani.
The rest of the state that he is the mayor of…
Yes, we all know that he is the mayor of NYC, not the governor of NY. However the mayor of NYC is often seen as wielding as much power as the governor, hence why there are always comparisons, and they are valid when looking at larger approval ratings of policies. If this was some DSA mayor of a small city in the middle of nowhere, there wouldn’t even be a news story about it. Hell, there are many very liberal mayors in California, and they are hardly talked about, for the exact same reason.
Ok but why should he care about people who are literally not his constituents. Imo his approval rating with irrelevant people going down is a good sign: it means the mayor of NYC is actually paying attention and caring about NYC for once.
Wait till you hear Israelis opinion about him!
Lulz.
Wow, this place really IS like Reddit!
PROOF that people HATE Mamdani!
-That One Guy in the Comment Sections saying people HATE the DSA!
“Nearly a third of New Yorkers oppose the brutal Mamdani régime”

Socialism is the antidote to capitalism. And he hasn’t even wandered that far into socialist territory yet.
Out of the USA he is a mild centre-left person.
Mamdani in his second term: “Hold my beer.”
Nice.

If he hits 100%, does he automatically become president? I think that would be a cool rule.
That wouldn’t be a cool rule. To start, polls are subjective, typically trash, and we (society as a whole) generally lack the depth to understand methodologies enough to gauge validity.
And if they were somehow an objective measure, billionaires would then buy every polling agency and just announce that trump is perpetually polling at 125% with vote farms and bot. And the establishment dems would say , “Well, we don’t like it, but that is what the poll says, so… But we’re really going to watch him close though”
