    Yeah because NYC and middle amerikkka nowhere town used to prop up a CIA cardboard cutout of a man are totally the same thing and you’ve definitely never heard of any other NYC mayor before this

    Giuliani? Who’s that? Bloomberg? Never heard of him

    Get the fuck out of here with this bullshit, I’m not over here throwing a shit fit because I know who the mayor of London is

        I’m not an expert but it seems like City of London is a tiny fortress of finance capitalism to administratively insulate the financiers from any messy interventions from fixed capital or (gasp) the masses of greater London

          I mean that’s how it functions but the why is dumb medieval commune shit, if the city of london didn’t have civic rights from the charter the big money would just technically be registered in castletown or something
