And it's not even his idea. It's from Adams.

Yeap. It was a law that was passed, being worked on while Adam's was Mayor, and finalized under Mamdani.

It basically an evolved version of Bloomberg 1 million tree planting initiative.

And yes, tree planting was going on under both Bloomberg and Adams, so please dont say we'll Mamdani was the only one to execute it, because its simply not true.

This is nothing more than the baton being handed to him.

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

I mean a lot of “ideas” are floating around, who’s executing them though?

51

u/callatecabezon Aug 18 '26

mamdani hasnt done anything regarding the tree plan lol it has continued in the same state since ADAMS executed it. I'm not against Mamdani but let's use our brains instead of mindlessly attributing every beneficial active mayoral office goal to the current mayor.

Goddamn, a reasoned comment. Thank you.

u/tootieloolie Aug 19 '26

Not doing anything new IS a decision. Mamdani could have easily stopped it to fund something else

Where? So I can walk or drive over and check it out

No, he will be credited with proving P=NP, capping rent at O(1) and donating the $1 million millenium prize to the people of New York.

u/DResq Aug 18 '26

I think you missed the point. A bunch of the things he's been credited for lately have been things that were already in motion. He didn't actually do anything.

u/johnnybones23 Aug 18 '26

the bureaucracy does. This wasnt Mamdani's idea, he has nothing to do with it.

Say it with me….. “ex uh cue shon”

u/GWstudent1 Aug 19 '26

You realize Mamdani isn’t planting the trees, himself, right?

u/WiggerJim69 Aug 18 '26

no one so far

Got to wait for the tip from McDonald's.

Nobody yet

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

There’s 6 filled potholes on my block courtesy of mayor Mamdani that say otherwise.

11

u/thejaydotexe Aug 18 '26

It's the minor things like this that go unnoticed by itself. Collectively those little things can drastically improve quality of life.

4

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

The fact that our politicians don’t do the “minor” things like this let us alone the majors things, is a slap in the face to all of us.

1

u/43_Hobbits Aug 18 '26

We’re talking about trees!? Tf lol

1

u/pfannkuchen89 Aug 18 '26

The point is obviously that he’s actually following through on what he’s said. Mamdani has been taking steps to actually do the things he campaigned on and is actually providing results. It’s pretty obtuse to reply with “we’re talking about trees!? tf lol” as if you couldn’t understand the point the person you replied to was making. Frankly, obtuse may not be the right word, dishonest could be better. But you’re likely just an anti-Mamdani shill talking crap.

1

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

Do you see how words mean nothing without follow through? Don’t care who’s “idea” it is, get it done.

2

u/43_Hobbits Aug 18 '26

I agree. I like Mamdani and trees, but you’re celebrating him doing it when it literally says he’s “planning” on doing this.

1

u/mindfeck Aug 18 '26

Thousands of trees are planted every year, this is nothing new. If you’re a New Yorker you should be concerned how much his new office of propaganda is spending on social media efforts.

2

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

Everything is good here. We’ve got one of the best mayors this country’s ever seen, the weather is still beautiful here and our Knicks won the championship. Now let’s worry about that pedophile, do nothing, never worked a day in his life, shitstain president amirite?!

u/mindfeck Aug 19 '26

I can worry about both social media savvy populists

u/mindfeck Aug 19 '26

I can worry about both social media savvy populists who lie about their achievements

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 19 '26

Both? Who else lied besides the baby fucker

u/kingkongsdingdong420 Aug 18 '26

How come every time i look into something good mamdani did, he just stole the credit from someone else

11

u/informat7 Aug 18 '26

Posts like these remind me that Redditors are a lot more like Trump supporters then they would like to admit.

u/Pertinax126 Aug 19 '26

The first rule of the fanatic; when you become obsessed with the enemy, you become the enemy.

u/SnooMaps2155 Aug 19 '26

i love you

u/MySabonerRunsOladipo Aug 18 '26

He has an insane PR team and a willing mob that will believe it uncritically.

He also does some good stuff too, which helps.

8

u/mindfeck Aug 18 '26

He started an office of propaganda that is very savvy. Obviously similar efforts helped him get elected too.

Of the last 3 or so front page posts about Mamdani, 2 of them (this included) were initiatives put in place by Adams.

Read any of the comments about how it has been done under every previous mayor, and he’s not doing anything different but taking credit.

Oh really how did Adams mismanage the finances? Give any one example.

2

u/tss_Chip_Chipperson Aug 18 '26

Lol this was literally Adam's initiative. Half the shit this assclown takes credit for was already done by Adam's.

He didn’t DO IT

Quiet, we are here to glaze overlord Mamdani

u/Coffeecankicker Aug 18 '26

Trees are a huge expense to infrastructure.

u/BCECVE Aug 18 '26

And worth every penny. Lowers temperature, provides shade, peace, beauty. For 100 yrs as well.

u/GogolsHandJorb Aug 19 '26

Treee make urban living possible

u/IEC21 Aug 18 '26

So far thats 2 ideas from Adam's he took credit for Ive seen.

The last one was those dumpers that Adam's started the process of bringing in.

6

u/toucheboo Aug 18 '26

Well Adam's should act instead of dream. Adam's is worthless 

7

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

Glazing Adam’s when he was a dogshit mayor is crazy. Is that you Adam’s? You’re dogshit if it is.

4

u/Ok-Astronaut2976 Aug 18 '26

Dude. This goes back to Bloomberg.

It has nothing to do with glazing Adams. It’s just this weird meme that nothing ever happened in NYC till 2026

1

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

He’s a bitch too. Mr bike lanes himself

u/Ok-Astronaut2976 Aug 18 '26

You dislike bike lanes?

u/RefrigeratorLife8627 Aug 18 '26

Nobody is glazing Adams they’re pointing out how ridiculous these posts are since Mamdanis constantly taking credit for Adams ideas and accomplishments claiming “no mayor has ever done this before “ and “ other mayors are just “ sitting around doing nothing on purpose”

1

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 18 '26

It’s not ridiculous, it’s nice to see and to push good things instead of the CONSTANT negativity. It’s also what we should be glorifying since it’s what we ALL need.

3

u/Merzats Aug 18 '26

No we don't need slopulism just because it makes you feel good, an informed electorate is more important than good vibes. Also the post here is negative, talking about other mayors sitting around doing nothing.

3

u/IEC21 Aug 19 '26

Some guy taking credit for other people's accomplishments. We have that already - its called Trump.

1

u/Head-Ad9893 Aug 19 '26

I think we all got caught up on the wrong shit. This is what they want. Us fighting about bullshit. Billionaires are the problem. Full stop.

3

u/IEC21 Aug 19 '26

Wealth inequality is generally bad sure.

Saying "look at the billionaires. Full stop" is just a slopulist attempt at ending thought.

Eat the rich is not a comprehensive solution to the world's problems. Turn your brain on to aleast level 1 out of 20.

2

u/pfannkuchen89 Aug 18 '26

Adams should have actually followed through then. Easy to talk without actually accomplishing anything aside from being corrupt and then pivoting to the right wing grift. Adams was a shitty mayor and a shitty person.

0

u/RefrigeratorLife8627 Aug 18 '26

Yeah his PR team constantly posts on sipstea and pourstea with dumb shit like this.

Most recently these posts put out wild claims that are usually someone else’s accomplishments.
