I don’t want to be a candidate for Vietnam or Watergate
Cause all I wanna do is

Bicycle (yeah) bicycle (eh) bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle (c’mon) bicycle

CYCLE

OF

HATE!

They should go in business for editing metal bands their lyric videos. They’d be naturals at it.

Would totally skip zionist parade for a nice bike ride.

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 14 points 3 hours ago

Absolutely nobody is anywhere near as good at selling Mamdani as the people that hate him the most. I love it.

How do you try to smear someone but end up making them look so awesome?

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Just a sweet picture of a, so far, beloved man, smiling on a bike ride.

New York Post: CYCLE OF HATE

Amazingly tone deaf. Absolute failure of an attempt to smear.

So...because he didn't go to a parade, he hates them? Damn...I didn't go because I don't live in New York...I was out of town....and I am now, by NYT Standards, a hater...wow....

[–] architect@thelemmy.club 6 points 3 hours ago

Actual hate crime.

There is no reality in which NYPost turns down a chance to hate both cyclists and Muslims at the same time. Those are like their two favorite things to do.

I've been laughing at this for like 5 mins

Somebody tricked the NYP into running a pro-mamdani cover. If I ever meet the tipster I'll buy them a beer.

They will do anything to make him seem like a creep, but he isn’t. He’s just like a normal guy. And a pretty good looking one of that.

Edit: the sexiest, hottest thing about this guy is that his perfectly normal (and he IS very sexy and hot). What does that say about our society? What does that say about us?

The sexiest thing about him was how he handled Trump

[–] homes@piefed.world 9 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Calling him a fascist to his face was nothing short of hilarious

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

And Trump was like "fair enough."

The world is burning and the right's biggest problem is someone being a good human being is likeable.

[–] homes@piefed.world 10 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

He rode a bike! How dare he!

And a smile? In public?! Unforgivable! We must destroy him!

Our nation is crumbling, and this is obviously the cause!

Zohran for my sugar daddy

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 16 points 9 hours ago

Skip a degree of separation and make him your husband!

Even if I put my head into a rabid MAGA, I don't see any insults. The right wing is really grasping for straws.

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 27 points 10 hours ago

That’s the Murdoch family, so while yes, they’ve always been conservative (one of the sons is not actually a conservative), it’s more accurate to say the ultra wealthy are grasping at straws. MAGA doesn’t support Israel’s pushing us into war with Iran, so as you stated, they wouldn’t buy this issue based on that cover, but billionaires and other special interest groups sure would love for everyone to buy this narrative.

[–] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Like wearing a tan suit, or eating Dijon mustard.

[–] Krusty@quokk.au 3 points 8 hours ago

Pardon me, would you happen to have any generic yellow mustard?

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 11 points 9 hours ago

I didn't even get it was supposed to be insulting somehow. I read the title, thought "good for him" and then started wondering where the meme is because we're just spitting fire here.

[–] jtrek@startrek.website 4 points 9 hours ago

It's just emotional chum for the right wing to stay frothy at the out-group. Even though many of them would benefit from DSA or further left policies, they're drunk on group identity. (See also: every right wing accusation is a confession, "identity politics")

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 14 points 9 hours ago

must be a slow news day if the headline is the mayor riding a bike

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago

NYP headlines will aleays be funny but stop calling them a newspaper. It's a tabloid lol.
