Because political discourse on this platform is deeply unserious. Calling Mamdani centrist is bizarre. It’s clear that to you and the members of certain instances everything that is not the complete people’s ownership of the means of production constitutes a “centrist”. There is absolutely no nuance and it’s quite silly. Calling the guy that is running government run grocery stores “centrist” because he hasn’t yet nationalized all private entities is really endemic of how this platform is unwilling to move the coalition forward because it is not interested in achieving the goals of socialism; it is only interested in idealizing it through abstract terms but never ever should we dare contend with the real world and how these ideas get implemented.
I don’t claim to be the fountain of wisdom or savvy in terms of political theory. But I do recognize how asinine the discourse can be here. It’s clear no socialist on Lemmy is invested in this ideology enough with regards to executing actionable change.
I’m not Lemmy. I’m just one guy. And I really don’t know what you’re trying to say here.

Well I’m glad we have deeply serious people like you to explain it to us poor fools.
