Wow, I'm so confused about Zohran Mamdani's sudden silence on the gang database . One day he's talking trash about it and the next he's just... quiet? It's like, what's going on in that head of his? Is he playing both sides or does he not care about the impact this tracker has on people of color?
Mamdani's silence on this is really gonna hurt him in the long run... his campaign promise was all about dismantling this stuff, but now he's just repeating the same old excuses gotta be honest with himself and the people of NYC, can't keep dodging the issue.
.. thinkin back to when I was in college, we had this class on sociology and criminology, and they were studyin' these gang databases and how they affect communities of color... it was like, back then we knew that just causin' trouble wouldn't land you in the system, but now it seems like the NYPD's still stuck in this mindset. β
And yeah, I can see why critics would say it's unfair and racist, 'cause if you're from a certain neighborhood or wear certain clothes, they might think you're more likely to be involved with gangs... that don't make sense, right?
"The question isn't who's going to let me; it's who's going to stop me." - Ayn Rand We need leaders like Mayor Mamdani to take bold action and not be afraid of speaking up, especially on issues that affect marginalized communities the most. It's time for change and progress, not just empty promises and silence
idk why city officials are being so secretive about this gang database thingy... it's like they're trying to sweep it under the rug . I mean, we've been hearing all these horror stories about how it's targeting ppl of color and whatnot, but now that Mamdani is in charge, suddenly he's just chillin' with Tisch like no big deal . I'm calling BS on this one... where's the transparency? . And those audits showing systemic flaws? what's being done about it? nothing, right? . We need some real change around here, not just empty promises to dismantle the tracker if it gets too much heat .
I'm like totally confused why Zohran's being all quiet about his promise to scrap the gang database? It's kinda weird considering he used to be all against it in the first place . What's going on, man? Is he gonna follow through or just play it safe? Either way, this whole thing is giving me anxiety . I wish he'd come out and address these concerns directly instead of just... nothing . The public deserves to know what's really going down .
