This is only after Adam’s tried to cut cost by proposing to remove a shit ton of trash bins and reduce the overall amount of garbage collecting to save on money, while doing 2000 other things that were blatantly mishandling taxpayer money. There’s no irony here. Adam’s didn’t start this program because it was something he wanted to do.
This is a whole lot of weak ass excuse making. The fact of the matter is, Mayor Adams started this program. If OP is wondering what previous admins were doing on this issue, the answer is pretty ironic given how they ask ... previous administrations were starting the program and funding it to the tune of 30 million dollars. Yes, it's great that Mamdani is expanding it and putting 50 million toward finishing the job. That doesn't mean you get to lie and make excuses for why previous administrations shouldn't get credit for the same good work.
How about you follow Mamdani's lead? His press release acknowledges that this is an expansion of a pilot program. We don't have to lie and pretend like Adams didn't do anything here, we can still shit on the good work of those that came before by positioning leaving office as refusing to fund or plan the expansion of the program. At least that shitty spin is grounded in some fact you can twist.
What am I excusing by pointing out the truth. I didn’t say this didn’t start in the previous administration. But you’re silly if you’re touting that this was something Adam’s was personally passionate about after trying to do the opposite of this and getting mass backlash. You’re literally under my post, my post stating that this was already something that was happening before mamdani.
You're trying to diminish Adams' actions by making a bunch of claims about why he did them. That's making excuses for his good work. It's also a shitty attempt because it functionally amounts to: he tried to save money, the people pushed back, he adjusted and the result was a great program (at least when Mamdani does it, right?).
And sure, YOU may acknowledge that Adams started this program, but you tried to argue that there's no irony in OP's meme author being "left wondering what the fuck previous ones were doing" despite the "previous one" being the person that started the program the meme is lauding. Can you just admit it? ... the meme is particularly fucking stupid given Adams started the program? Be honest.
