why is the r/nyc sub always a conservative hotbed?
im constantly seeing the most right wing takes dropped in the comments, people who arent from there or no longer live here crowding to give some shit brain fox news take on nyc. People arguing over each other to cry about shitty nyc is, but also the racism and Islamophobia is on ten. Constantly seeing posts from the NY POST which is an openly far right news source, owned by Oligarch Murdoch, and people actually take the post seriously on there sometimes! the occasional person points out how shitty the Post is and arguments start breaking out.
Its just weird how the main sub for nyc is such a far right diarrhea cesspool for conservatives to chime in on how Mamdani is going to ruin NYC (despite them saying this for years in regards to whomever is in charge) but now its like thats all one can expect from that sub? what tf happened? it went from mildly purple to seeing red damn near...
