Miranda Devine: History shows that Mamdani’s dangerous plan to seize property from landlords only leads to misery and tyranny
Miranda Devine argues that Zohran Mamdani's plan to seize property from landlords is a dangerous and misguided idea that will lead to misery and tyranny. She cites historical examples of communist regimes, such as those led by Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot, which resulted in millions of deaths and widespread suffering. Devine believes that Mamdani's plan is part of a broader effort to impose collectivism and seize power, which will ultimately lead to one-party rule and tyranny.
