This story is so good because it perfectly illustrates the issue with politics today:
- A vocal minority of leftists managed to force a silent majority. Once they won, they didn't really know what to do. Now everyone realizes that New York is worse off.
- All of the outrage started and snowballed on Twitter, where self-centered politicians decided to use it as a way to virtue-signal.
- The press did an awful job on this story: every article got a baked in narrative (From "Amazon was defeated and NYC won", to "NYC Lost and Amazon won"). It is simply very difficult to know what actually happened.
