The Dilemma of Champagne Socialists

Mandami ran on a hard-left campaign for Mayor of New York – an actual ‘seize the means of production’ Socialist platform. During said campaign he filmed himself eating rice with his fingers to show his common touch. (“When you grow up as someone … especially in the 3rd world.”) This is the same guy who claimed African status on college applications. In reality his parents were the beneficiaries of British colonial rule in Uganda, where he was born. And his family still splits time between NY and their multi-million 2 acre compound located outside the capital Kampala.
