@anildash@me.dm Oh man, the way things are in the US right now I fear for his life... these kinds of videos only anger the establishment.

@anildash@me.dm yes, it is. In fact, it’s a blueprint that isn’t all that new: it’s the core ideas of Category Design applied to a politician. (Note: my consulting firm offers exactly that, for both companies and their products but also for individuals such as politicians.) The strategy is pretty simple: explain to your customers (voters) how your product (you) solves their problems.

@anildash@me.dm Yeah - it's a great piece of work. I also admire the focus - he hasn't gotten mired in the ridiculous critiques people have been lobbing his way - instead, he stays focused on what he is for. The realistic positivity is great, and we need more of it. Hope, rooted in listening and doing the work.

@anildash@me.dm young socialists with functional social media skills and impeccable rizz are the future of politics -- this basically exempts Millenials, lol, but we can handle it

@anildash@me.dm He seems all good EXCEPT for an interview, when pressed, he refused to separate himself from the term "global intifada".

@anildash@me.dm this is the best political video ever made.

@mattg@recurse.social 2025-07-02 19:32
@anildash@me.dm the video is great either way, but does it overstate the comparison of a Democratic primary with a general election? Conceivably many of those areas that went for Trump in 2024 could still go as heavily for Adams and Silwa in 2025 right? Is there a breakdown of the absolute numbers to show that he did more than win big among last year's Harris voters?

@anildash@me.dm it's so nice to see something hopeful from US politics for once.

@anildash@me.dm The content is chefs kiss perfect. But its purposefully amateurish film making? For the feel. This is a list of dont do this examples (dont shoot an edit of someone starting to walk then talk). Its cute right? Just a bunch of young people trying to be real politicians.

@blaise@friendica.rogueproject.org 2025-07-02 20:13
@anildash@me.dm He's an amazing politician. I just hope he has a real plan to accomplish some of the crazy expensive things he's promised, or the Dems are done in NYC forever...

@jargoggles@kolektiva.social 2025-07-02 20:22
@anildash@me.dm Remember this every single time Democrats try to tell you that they have to move to the right to peel votes off of Republicans. It's horse shit. It's always been horse shit and they know it. The problem is, this makes it much harder for them to pretend like they don't know it.

@isagalaev@mastodon.social 2025-07-02 20:31
@anildash@me.dm so it took (counting since Bernie's 2016 campaign) *nine* years and *two* Trump wins for normie liberals to stop being afraid of progressives and for young voters to realize they have to fucking show up. Better late than never I guess.
-
@Caveman1226@mastodon.social 2025-07-02 20:33
@anildash@me.dm Ok. But the blueprint for what exactly? If you are a fan of policy, then you need to be a fan of winning first. Recent elections should serve as wisdom for future action. Do you think this video is going to victory? Cuz it feels like an ad for a primary in which the electors are already convinced.
-
@rlcw@ecoevo.social 2025-07-02 20:44
@anildash@me.dm Wasn't Obamas campaign like that? It's also a pretty well proven strategy, but a loooot of work which is why most candidates don't do it. And don't get me wrong, I am glad they achieved the results they did AND think they are worth celebrating even when they are tried and proven and not innovative.
-
@jsonbecker@indieweb.social 2025-07-02 21:37
@anildash@me.dm I feel like this is a bit misleading though-- he talks a lot about reaching Trump voters by geography, but NYC runs closed primaries, so he's only talking about registered democrats in those neighborhoods. And I feel like the Trump swing, while meaningful, was not from registered dems but from GOP turnout mostly.
-
@FishNamedDog@mastodon.social 2025-07-02 21:51
@anildash@me.dm It's a good video, but I don't totally get the data on Trump-won neighborhoods. He won the *Democratic primary* -- not the overall vote -- yet from what I can tell he's sort of assuming the Trump voters contributed, when they presumably didn't vote in the Democratic primary. Is there more detail on this or something I'm missing?
-
@jaykass@mastodon.online 2025-07-02 22:19
@anildash@me.dm Impressive and happy for his defeat of Cuomo. It is important to note though that some of the comparisons are between a primary and a general election. Those are very different and should not be directly compared.

@dusoft@fosstodon.org 2025-07-02 22:20
@anildash@me.dm Check the watch, I think it's no accident he is showing a nerd digital watch as opposed to some show off expensive watch.

@iju@mastodon.social 2025-07-03 01:31
@anildash@me.dm Having grown up in a society where parties speak of themselves as representatives of classes, economic interests, and/or provinces, or as big tents, it's really strange to listen such clear and up-front cadre partyism. In my youth I studied marketing (a regret), and the way video spoke seemed to be closer to market campaign trying to find a way to sell a new sodapop on a saturated market. I mean, it's not wrong, but shows how distant the politics there are from the people.

@UP8@mastodon.social 2025-07-03 14:04
@anildash@me.dm I really like his style, he's the kind of politician who sets a good example for everyone. Often he's been interviewed by people who are skeptical about his policies and they walk away still a bit skeptical but they say "gee, he's such a nice guy!" He comes across at not the least bit divisive and we need leaders like that.
