Lots of assertions. No data. Ho hum.

Who on tik tok wants to see pro Cuomo content. The algorithm is supposed to show people what they want right?

It seems like a weird race to highlight.

I don’t live in New York or the US for that matter. And I boost Mamdani content.

Because it is absolutely brilliant. Best political communicator I have seen for a very long time.

Are we sure it's not just boosting "fun" vs "boring" content? Mamdani's Bluesky presence is vibrant and interesting, while Cuomo's bluesky "skeets" make him appear to have a stick up his ass.
