    What’s going on with personal identity and the optics of socialism? By that I mean: Zohran is crushing it with college-educated white men, according to the polls. Meanwhile, Establishment Dem Cuomo has won majority support from women, people of color, and old folks. I know socialism is rarified and academic, so for that reason it has a white stigma. I don’t live in NY, but I wonder what DSA is doing to reverse that. Any other explanations for why the polls are shaking out this way? How are women supporting Cuomo despite his sexual harassment resignation, or old people after the 2020 nursing home scandal? Or is it as simple as Dem propaganda, powerful business interests, media bias, etc.

      Name recognition and endemic cynicism are the main drivers, normies do not believe the promises of progressive liberals and for good reason

      Thankfully Zohran’s campaign has successfully broken through those barriers in a similar way to AOC back in 2018, and the dems helped him by trying to rehabilitate an unpopular creep like Cuomo, also the bizarre Zionist cult displays during the debate went viral and creeped out alot of New Yorkers
