Bravery requires an understanding of the danger and risk involved in the act. Going into something dangerous without knowing the risks is less brave than knowing the risks full well and still going in. In all likelihood, wisdom can highlight which risks are worth it and which are not, which means that as wisdom increases, taking pointless risks decreases.
It could also just be anxiety
I either play a fun game and never finish it, or I finish the game dozens of times and become a diehard fan for life.
I hope some brave soul infiltrates them and leaks the IDs of every ICE employee, as well as the extent of their crimes against humanity

I think that's downplaying how radical it was to self describe as a socialist politician in America when he did. His work in destigmatizing leftism was necessary for Mamdani to exist, and him winning a seat in the most undemocratic and unfair chamber of our parliament is incredibly impressive. Him challenging neoliberal hegemony in his 2016 and 2020 runs for president might've not succeeded, but it played a large role in every socialist win in this far right hellhole.
I don't think Mamdani is as far left compared to current voters as Bernie was even 20 years ago. Him being mayor is more of a symbolic victory than one that will change the country. He was undoubtedly a response to the corrupt cop who used to be mayor, and the corporate opposition was a failed power grab by Democrats thinking they could use 2024 as an excuse to go further right. He's a start, but we need DSA candidates to primary every establishment candidate they can to really change things.
idk sadly :(
