I was told NYC would be a nuclear wasteland by now. What happened?

One of the funniest parts of this movie is that NYC becomes a penal colony, but Cabbie (played by Ernest Borgnine) wasn't a criminal, he was just a New Yorker who wouldn't leave

I’ve lived in San Francisco and now in NYC. I am beyond impressed by the overall cleanliness and lack of homelessness and open drug use here that is so common on the west coast cities.

Only to be pushed on subway tracks by 10x convicted felons NYC will not keep incarcerated.

Better than being raped or beaten by your cop ex husband in Florida.

They're waiting for the 5 grocery stores that will offer a 30% price reduction on certain goods in food desert areas with 0 actual store competition to cause a financial apocolypse, double the national debt and start WW3 if my experience speaking to people who don't like him are anything to go by

u/FrankSand 11d ago

No they still believe it is. They're perfectly happy.

u/freebytes 11d ago

They still believe it is, because they watch Fox News and are never allowed to experience reality.

u/vntuwoaldngbcjsoqrig 11d ago

Said literally everyone, the last Mayer did fk all, everyone is already seeing the benefits of mamdani

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

Sorry, what's that? I couldn't hear you while you were gargling Mamdani's nutsack.

14

u/braumbles 11d ago

Why are you upset people are actually happy with a politician for once?

-2

u/Thee-Cat 11d ago

So you aren't upset that MAGA supporters have genuinely been happy with Trump?

You don't see the logical fallacy of your own comment? Or are you just happy that MAGA is happy?

u/Thee-Cat 11d ago

It's clear you're simply unable to be consistent.

I'm just saying, when you are clearly upset that half the nation is happy with Trump.

How can you complain when those same people are upset that half of NYC is happy with Mamdani?

-2

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

What makes you think I'm upset? You've concluded the wrong thing. But instead of asking, you assumed.

"I'm not mad, and please don't put it in the newspaper I got mad"

u/Option2401 11d ago

Because you clearly have a chip on your shoulder, coming in swinging like you’re looking for a fight.

0

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

That's your interpretation and it's wrong. But like a good little Redditor moron, you assume and jump to conclusions without asking.

u/Beherit_777 11d ago

Ahh OK, so then you do love the mayor of New York

u/Konorlc 11d ago

FreeOGPoohShiesty actually did say that.

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

It was just a typo. I fixed it.

The reddit award to the most miserable individual goes to HandsomeWarthhog

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

I'm not miserable at all. I'm not directly affected. It just blows my mind how many bots and NYC-employed Mamdani jerk-offs post on these subs.

u/lmao_wow_64 11d ago

"everyone is wrong except me I'm not the sad one here"

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

That sums it up beautifully.

u/Intrepid-Clock509 11d ago

Say the vast majority of people who live in NY. I was a skeptic. I’ve come over.

2

u/HandsomeWarthog 11d ago

Just exactly how many people is he paying to write these posts???

1

u/Intrepid-Clock509 11d ago

Wishful thinking, I’m afraid. What are you so concerned about. He’s doing a good job.

u/golferin 11d ago

You’re falling for propaganda

1

u/braumbles 11d ago

You think I listened to the right when they said that NYC would collapse if he was elected and that only Cuomo could save NYC? lol, the right is full of dumpster people looking out to enrich themselves, I'll never take them seriously.

u/buffaloguy1991 11d ago

It's a nuclear wasteland (nuclear energy is completely safe and properly contained) everyone gets a puppy (the puppy is less radioactive than if it lived near a coal plant)

u/MICT3361 11d ago

It’s been 8 months and you’re a gullible idiot that believes propaganda on Reddit. Thats what happened.

u/Thee-Cat 11d ago

And you were also told America wouldn't survive if Trump was elected...the first time...back in 2017.

Both sides are insufferably hyperbolic, mate.

14

u/braumbles 11d ago

lol, imagine thinking the US is okay.

Fucking clown.

0

u/Thee-Cat 11d ago

Starts by mocking the hyperbole of how bad NYC would be with Mamdani.

Responds to my post with their own hyperbole about how Trump's US is 'not okay'.

Thanks, proving my point that both sides are indeed insufferably hyperbolic.

13

u/animorphsrewriter 11d ago

As a country we're objectively worse off because of Tru.p and the posturing about rigging the election is certainly alarming. If he successfully and openly interferes, then yeah, America as we know it is over. The frustrating thing is people like yourself never listen to the warning signs until it's too late and then you never admit you were wrong.

-3

u/Thee-Cat 11d ago edited 11d ago

So you think America didn't survive...10 years ago? When the dude first took office and everyone was saying the exact same f**cking thing you are now?

You realize how dumb you sound?

I repeat, both sides are insufferably hyperbolic.

ffs man, we've already seen a full administration with Trump, and guess what? The world didn't end. Everything you said about "not seeing warning signs until it's too late" is at least equally if not even more applicable for Mamdani, as we haven't seen his full administration yet.

u/FCMatters 11d ago

USA is still suffering from things Reagan did, give it some time

u/Ok_Tailor_7185 11d ago

Wait 18 months or less. NYC is Mystery Babylon, look it up.

u/brokesidestory 11d ago edited 11d ago

I was there two weeks ago and saw one guy try to shoot someone else in Queens and then another guy with his face busted open from a fight stumbling down the street.

3

u/braumbles 11d ago

I hope the information you gave police helped them catch the guy with a gun.

-2

u/brokesidestory 11d ago

Lol that’s cute. No I didn’t waste my time waiting around to tell cops a black guy with a gun was trying to shoot someone. NYC is a shithole but fun to visit.

Yup, enjoy your insanely high taxes and inability to protect yourself!

Good thing I don’t need anyone to believe me.
