Trump sends migrants overseas to be tortured. Mamdani says the very rich should pay a little more for better city services (free buses, etc.). These are not comparable at all. What is behind this disingenuous both-sidesism? What is going on in VC-land?

What is going on is that VCs with residency in New York are balking at Mamdani's flat 2% increase on New Yorkers earning $1 million a year or more.
Which they can certainly afford now after the tax cut received through the passing of federal legislation.
