Fuck No. You’re learning absolutely nothing if petty campism is the lesson you’re taking from this. If you read the Dropsite article about Mamdani’s win then you’ll know NYC-DSA has learned their lessons from the disappointments of AOC and Bowman.
Even then that doesn’t mean it was a mistake to sneak AOC into office before they were ready to provide her the institutional backing she needed to stay the course. The point is to learn why her experiment failed and apply the lessons you learn.
This is a case study in US electoralism not a grand evaluation about how lib NYC-DSA is. They couldn’t keep a hold on her to begin with because in 2019 they had no one to back her up in office and so she was “lost to the consultant class”. If she snuck into office a few years ago, then we probably wouldn’t be seeing this behavior from her.
