Kindness is a great characteristic.

When applied on the personal level - giving generously to those less fortunate - it's commendable.

When applied on the population level - unless that population is a small tribe - it requires theft and violence.

The good thing is that the less you have of the latter, the more room there is for the former.


(Even though I totally disagree with most of his policies, I was very sympathetic to Mamdani in this election for various reasons. And I sympathize with his supporters who are fed up with the current system.)

By theft if you mean taxation that is already happening and he is advocating for using taxes properly for better public services, so it makes sense. If the issue is about taxation and system itself then it’s a different topic , nothing to do with him I think.
