Communist, pro-jihad, anti-freedom New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani is once again proving that he is a globalist tyrant rather than a truly American politician, as he adopts European elites’ propaganda against air-conditioning.
Mamdani pontificated about how New Yorkers needed to use the AC less in order to keep the electricity grid stable. What he did not mention is that the grid would be more stable if it were not partially reliant on misnamed “green” energy, the energy source which he wants to emphasize. He sounds just like the moronic elites in Belgium, France, Germany, and Britain.
“New York: it's hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool,” Mamdani said, trying to sound chatty and amicable. “Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you're not using, and unplug what you can. Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand, asking private partners to do the same, and powering down non-essential equipment.” Maybe New York could stop housing hordes of illegal aliens as a start.
Mamdani lectured, “A stable grid means the AC stays on, and lives are saved. Let's ease demand — and get through the heat — together.” But Spencer Pratt called out Mamdani’s fallacy:
Communism always goes the same way. They smile & promise you the world. Free this, free that, abundance for all! How? Don't ask!

Then they get into power, and the rationing begins. First a smiley ask. Then a demand. Then a bullet. "You used too much energy, comrade" https://t.co/lyXZq62rwN
Part of the reason that the electricity grid is unstable in New York is that the Democrats who run the state, just like those who run the city, are radical climate alarmists who keep over-regulating and also trying to switch more of their electricity to expensive, unreliable, and inefficient “green” energy. Solar panels and wind turbines are not only inefficient in general, but they tend to stop functioning in high heat. The state government brags that its “climate agenda is one of the most aggressive climate agendas in the nation.”

Mamdani is even more radical in his climate agenda than previous N.Y. Democrats. His green new deal was one of the pushes of his campaign. Amid skyrocketing electricity prices, Mamdani babbled about “climate change” and the need for a green transition. Now he is once again acting as if citizens’ consumption of AC is the problem instead of idiotic policies that make the grid less resilient.
This is, of course, very socialist of him. In every socialist city, state, or country, the government creates or exacerbates all the problems and then blames other people for the disaster that follows. If the New York grid is not holding up amid a heat wave, politicians should be asking what stupid regulations they are imposing that might be contributing to the problem. Instead, Mamdani is doubling down on stupid and demanding that citizens suffering from the heat take upon yet more suffering.
Just as British authorities are forcing people to remove ACs from their homes, and the German government is running a propaganda campaign against AC, Mamdani is blaming the victims for the crisis.
