You know, a striking difference between the left and right is that, on a local level, when the left is completely unchallenged, they deliberately install the most shit-ass butt-stupid fuck-tarded incompetent government they can. They nigmax, crimemax, and hobomax their cities. Their #1 goal appears to be to make the city as shitty a place to live as is humanly possible. That's all that's happening in NYC. A couple of elections have made them securely confident that no Republican can win again, so it's time to, uh...completely fuck up basic governance.
By contrast, in any local government that's overwhelmingly Republican, granted, none of them terribly populous, you see clean streets, regularly patched potholes, well-kept parks, functional garbage service, and reasonably well-managed emergency services. They're not absolutely perfect, but I've yet to come across a medium-sized, conservatively populated town where anyone says, "Finally, with those demoKKKraps out of the way, we can finally turn this place into the disgusting pigsty we've always wanted!"
