Zohran's describing literal communism and it's what he wants to do in New York City

Zohran Mamdani proposes literal communism for housing in New York City: a real threat to private property and the free market

Socialism is no longer hiding behind feel-good phrases or idealistic speeches. In New York City, Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani has made it clear he wants to push his economic vision to the extreme: eliminate the free market and replace it with full-blown communism, starting with housing. His recent statements are as alarming as they are revealing, and should concern not only New York voters but the entire country.

Mamdani wants to create Community Land Trusts to gradually buy private housing and convert it into “community property.” In other words, absorb or confiscate the wealth of thousands of homeowners under the guise of social justice. On top of that, he proposes giving tenants the right of first refusal to buy their buildings when they go on sale — a surefire way to drive away real estate investment and kill private initiative.

And that’s not all. His plan includes removing subsidies for luxury developments — which often help fund public services and improve city infrastructure — and redirecting that wealth to build “social housing.” In practice, this would mean state-run projects with excessive regulation and little quality control. History has proven these centralized solutions lead to decay, not thriving communities.

These aren’t just vague theories. Mamdani openly admits that his political goal is “to take control of the means of production,” a line taken straight from the communist playbook. This mindset has no place in a city that owes its prosperity to commerce, entrepreneurship, and individual liberty.

Mamdani wants to implement this communist agenda in the financial capital of the world. Could there be anything more ironic? The very city that stands as a monument to free enterprise would be run by someone who despises it. If he succeeds, he won’t just damage New York — he’ll set a dangerous precedent for cities across America.

As National Review points out, his plans extend beyond housing to include grocery stores, utilities, and more — all showing a clear pattern of total state control. These ideas have failed miserably in Venezuela, Cuba, and the former Soviet Union. Importing them into New York is not just foolish, it’s a betrayal of everything that made the city great.

Behind every one of his promises is a profound misunderstanding of economics. Mamdani doesn’t grasp how value is created, how supply and demand work, or why competition matters. He believes everything can be replaced with committees and state control, ignoring that free markets are what enable innovation, diversity, and well-being.

Worst of all, this socialist narrative is being normalized within the Democratic Party. If Mamdani becomes mayor, he will not only endanger New York’s future — he’ll become the ultimate example of why we need markets and must reject communism at all costs.
