I can't believe I'm still seeing takes about how 'we have to have a big tent' and 'now is not the time for purity tests'. What exactly is the problem with Mamdani then? Usually the people who are being told not to have purity tests are voters or posters, not anybody with power. So we should be even more suspicious of the tests that powerful people are using right? What is their explanation for not supporting him? We know the real reasons, he fails the support Israel purity test and he fails the support capitalists purity test.
