About the Creator

Ian Jaeger is a conservative content creator and commentator on X (formerly Twitter) who frequently shares viral clips and commentary on political figures, emphasizing right-wing perspectives. His style is punchy, supportive of anti-socialist and pro-American individualism views, often amplifying voices like Megyn Kelly. Credibility stems from his large following and timely reposts of mainstream conservative media, though he operates as an opinionated aggregator rather than a primary journalist.

What's This About?

The post features Megyn Kelly's sharp rebuke to New York City politician Zohran Mamdani's statement advocating replacing 'the rigidity of Individualism with the warmth of Collectivism,' which Kelly counters by affirming American values against such ideas. It highlights a broader clash between socialist policies promoted by Mamdani, a progressive Muslim assembly member who rose to prominence and potentially became NYC mayor, and conservative critiques portraying him as radical, Marxist, and tied to Islamist figures. Key themes include socialism vs. individualism, affordability crises fueling his support, and cultural debates on immigration, Islamophobia, and governance in a post-9/11 New York context[1][2][3].

🔥Why It's Trending

This content is trending due to the recent NYC mayoral election around late 2025 where Mamdani's surprising rise and victory speech drew intense conservative backlash, amplified by Megyn Kelly's high-profile podcast discussions[1][2][4][5]. The timing aligns with post-election reactions in early 2026, as debates over his socialist promises and associations gain traction amid national affordability concerns and political polarization. Viral sharing by influencers like Jaeger boosts its reach on X.

It's day one of NYC's experiment in socialism, managed by new Mayor Zohran Mamdani. He wants a $30 minimum wage. In CA, a $20 minimum led to fewer jobs and higher prices. But socialists never learn. Watch them fail: https://t.co/wwo60WS2kn

A man from Romania heard Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration speech in New York City and has a warning ...

A man from Romania heard Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration speech in New York City and has a warning for America He says Zohran Mamdani used the EXACT SAME words they heard before socialism crushed their country “We will replace the fragility of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism. Famous words spoken by every communist in history. Hi, my name is Bogdan and this is exactly how communism came to power in my country, Romania, via collectivism. First, they confiscated private land. Then they used terror to enforce collectivism. The regular Romanian citizens were arrested, beat up, humiliated publicly, left to rot in prison, and some even executed. The next step for collectivism was destroying the independent farmer class. These people were a threat to the regime because they were able to stay self-sufficient and did not rely on the state. Independence was, and still is, the biggest threat to communism. They made it in such a way that owning more than others was a crime. Once all that happened, the communists started confiscating the food from farmers, leaving families to die. They also confiscated the livestock raised by people. This resulted in famine, malnutrition, and the collapse of productivity. Romania literally went from being the number one exporter of grain in Europe to chronic shortages of food. But that wasn't enough. The communists then banned free market. No free sale of crops, no private trades, no bargaining, classic socialist failure. But collectivism wasn't just economic. It was cultural as well. In Romania, they attacked the church and religious people. They replaced family authority with party authority, all with one goal in mind: replace faith and family with the state. 15 years later, the communists declared victory. 90% of all farmland in Romania was collectivized. Bottom line, Romanian collectivism was forced, violent, economically disastrous, morally corrupt, and designed to control, not help. Only for today in the United States of America to be in New York City. I swear to God, some Americans are the dumbest morons on the planet.”
