As reported by Not the Bee on Jan. 3, Zohran Mamdani, in accepting the mayoralty of N.Y. City, made the following promise: “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” It is a promise rife with love and compassion for one’s fellow man, yet what does it entail?
Collectivism by definition submits the Rights of the Individual to the Dictatorship of Egalitarianism. If you have achieved well beyond the level of your peers, it is because you are a greedy bastard with no compassion for your fellow man. This Marxist Ethos ludicrously equates Human Intelligence and Achievement to forms of Oppression. It is implicitly Authoritarian, implicitly Anti-Democratic. In gifting their citizenry with the “warmth of collectivism,” zealots such as Mamdani feel entitled to use government force to impose their absurdly arbitrary definition of Social Justice which simply ignores the very real Diversity of the Species! As our Left-leaning contemporary world well illustrates, their sacred mission includes even the suppression of Free Speech! The world promoted by Mamdani is the Dystopia envisioned by George Orwell in “1984.” It is a world impervious to the Principles upon which our Western Democracies were founded, a world seemingly comfortable with Authoritarian Government Rule. Yet the citizens of N.Y.C. sadly chose to endorse it in their most recent election!!!!
