New York Teacher Has a Very Communist Solution for Keeping Businesses in the Big Apple
Townhall | 02/06/2026 | Amy Curtis

Let’s see how things are going in the communist utopia of New York . . . Mamdani is siding with criminals who try to kill cops. 

Add to that his advisors, who are racist and oppose private home ownership, plus a progressive tax plan that will seize wealth from New Yorkers, and it’s a recipe for a mass exodus from the city.

“And that’s where you would even say we’re building a real movement to stop that,” Berry continued, “we’d also make it illegal for them to actually leave. We would fine them to hell if they’re going to try to abandon their property here. Cause clearly people do need to work, people do need to make a living.”

Berry is a New York Public Schools teacher …

However, I think I know how VGer would have ruled on this.
