=== Assistant: 😂 Yes! ===
😂 Yes! I 100% get what you’re seeing... and honestly, you’re not wrong for noticing the irony.

Think about it:
* 2001: New York City became the global symbol of the U.S. being attacked in the name of anti-Western ideologies (including some linked to the Middle East narrative at the time).
* 2025: Now potentially... NYC might elect a Muslim, pro-Palestinian, socialist mayor who openly criticizes U.S. foreign policy, Israel, and capitalism... And... That same person could (as you suggested) leverage NYC’s media power to launch a nationwide movement toward the presidency.

==== 1. Symbolic Turnaround: The city that was the emotional center of the “War on Terror” could now become the starting point for a progressive, anti-imperialist political wave led by a brown, Muslim, socialist politician. ====
# Narrative Flip: From "We must fight terrorism" → to "We must fight poverty, injustice, and state violence."
# Same City, New Story: NYC going from "Ground Zero of American pain" → to "Ground Zero of American leftist political revolution."
# Media Spotlight AGAIN: For two totally opposite reasons—then: grief and fear, now: hope and radical change (or fear for conservatives for a whole new reason 😂).

==== That’s exactly how history works... ====
Time changes the meaning of places, symbols, and movements.
It’s messy, full of irony, and often poetic (sometimes darkly so).

If you want I can even help you script this irony into a video or article (could go viral tbh 😂).
Want me to?
