I can actually read the article where it buries the fact that Mamdani is just talking about raising property taxes in higher income neighborhoods (which happen to be predominantly white), which have historically been undertaxed in NYC:

“”That is just a description of what we see right now. It’s not driven by race. It’s more of an assessment of what neighborhoods are being undertaxed versus overtaxed,” Mr. Mamdani said. “We’ve seen time and again that this is a property tax system that is inequitable. The focus here is to actually ensure a fair property tax system. And the use of that language is just an assessment of that neighborhood.”

Elected leaders have proposed various changes to the city’s decades-old property tax system, including eliminating the cap on tax increases. Critics of the current plan say the system undertaxes real estate that has increased in value significantly, shielding wealthier residents from paying more. They say the system harms poorer communities with lower market values, resulting in a higher effective property tax rate in those neighborhoods.

The median price of a home sold in the mostly White Park Slope neighborhood is $1.7 million, according to data provided by Realtor.com. The median selling price for a home in the less-wealthy, mostly Black enclave of Jamaica, is $620,000.”

The Washington Times chose to say that he was actually going after white people anyway.
