A breakdown of New York City politics into seven distinct factions based on ideology, class, neighborhoods and political institutions. Where are the City's various electoral coalitions headed?
It is utterly impossible to definitively categorize New York City politics. The unique level of nuance and complexity found within each community as well as the propensity of politicians who tend to suffer ideological shifts from election cycle to election cycle are just a few factors that make this so. However, this is an incredible analysis of New York City politics, Michael. Truly impressive and I appreciate the time you took to put this together. As a veteran of the both the Bloomberg and de Blasio administration--holding leadership positions in both--this was a fascinating read.
Michael, I want to give you this new information because I have working on the ground to identify the World Wide factions and their correspondence here in the United States. I am sharing this with you. If you can help me identify the one I am missing.
Socialism is the political /economic system that supports the ownership and central control of the means-of-production and investment, whether by self-appointed elites or democratically elected.
Making up one's own definition of Socialism does not make one a Socialist. Bernie and AOC are not Socialists.
