   One thing about Zohran Mamdani that nobody seems to want to talk about is that, like fellow upset progressive election victor Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, he is young and extremely good-looking.

   Human beings are not complicated. We like to look at attractive people and we like to keep looking at them. If they ask us for something, we will say yes, especially if it's something that lets us look at them some more, like electing them to office.

   Progressives should run more smokeshows for office.

     @kete "Of course people will vote for me. Everyone is so nice here. They are always doing people favours or giving them the benefit of the doubt. Why wouldn't I run for office? I bet anybody could do it."

     @evan I read an Indian text where a woman made the point that this naive guy got everywhere he did because of his handsome looks and people giving him preferential treatment.
