Zohran Mamdani's electoral victory in New York City marks a new triumph—not for the working class, but for the highly educated. It is a curious revolution in which the ringleader is not the factory worker but the philosophy major, rebelling not against oppression but against reality itself.
Exit polling from CNN and NBC suggests that 42 percent of voters without college degrees supported Mamdani, compared to 58 percent of college graduates. His base doesn't appear to be the hardworking laborer of Marxist lore, but the well-credentialed and the well-schooled.
