Is that legal? Can the government tax you based on skin color
Everything is legal if the ones with power to enforce the law do nothing.
Since when has New York cared about the law? Not in my lifetime.
During Giuliani's tenure, New York was actually a pretty sweet place to visit.
Hell, I even rode the subway and it was perfectly fine.
The real reason for all the attacks on Mayor Rudy.
This take is so layered. The white leftists who live in NYC benefited tremendously from Giuliani’s policies, but white leftists will always believe the blacks when they claim to be victims. So white leftists voted to dismantle everything that Giuliani built, and the ones who will suffer most for it are white leftists. They truly are getting what they fucking deserve.
Times Square was a tourist spot for the first time in 50+ years
That's fair. I've been there before and once recently.
They will just call it something else but it is illegal
One of best examples of de facto discrimination happened during early covid when there were “not enough vaccines” to go around. Hospitals created quasi triage policies to prioritize “at risk” people. If you bothered to actually read the policies, you quickly discovered that everyone but white men were classified “at risk”. So the hospitals were just denying white men this “life saving” treatment, and the discrimination was “hidden” by the brilliant strategy of simply naming everyone except white men.
It was like a kid being told he couldn’t say “no girls allowed” for his birthday, so he just invites everyone by name (and conveniently doesn’t name a single girl).
Ironically, denying white men the jab was probably the most moral thing they could have done.
I clearly recall seeing blonde-&-blue-eyed "native" teenagers in line & being given "priority access" for the first jab deliveries ahead of non-institutionalized 65+ White men living in the community.
At least the very few based pureblood White seniors that were "discriminated" against in this case are still winning 4 years later.
I remember that Covid policy. Yea assuming he gets elected he will use some creative wording
They aren’t taxing based on skin color though. Really the problem here is why would you mention “whiter neighborhoods” at all?
If it’s true that more expensive neighborhoods pay a smaller proportion of taxes because of assessment caps then he may actually have a point here. I don’t know enough about the situation to have an opinion.
We all know that more affluent areas always have more whites but what is his point in mentioning it? Of course we here know why
