Meanwhile, in Minneapolis …

Meanwhile, in Minneapolis…
A city that used to be beautiful, safe, prosperous, homogenous, and somewhat bland, four more socialists were elected to the city council, giving them the majority.
The Democrat Socialists of America (DSA) were boosted by the far-left political action committee Minneapolis for the Many (MFTM), which, however, failed in its attempt to get Somali Muslim socialist Omar Fateh elected mayor, as slightly less far-left Jacob Frey was reelected via the city's ranked-choice voting system.
MFTM backs the now seven DSA members on the Minneapolis City Council, whereas the slightly less far-left group, All of Minneapolis (AOM), backs the six others. And 100% of non-radical Minneapolitans are screwed.
When I was much younger, I went to school -- and worked -- in Minneapolis. The city was largely comprised of Scandinavians, many of whom wore hats stating “Old Fart” or sporting the name of the ship they served on in World War II.
Downtown was quite vibrant and outlying neighborhoods were generally quiet and tidy. People often made eye contact and said “hi” to you as they passed by. “Minnesota nice” was a thing — even in the state’s urban center.
No longer.
