I think what we are seeing in New York is the result of the abandonment of moderate voters by the Republican Party. That ex police chief in New York who became mayor would probably have been in the same party as Giuliani before Rudy and the GOP went all-in for Trump. Until something changes in our political party system, the Democratic Party is where political leaders in NYC will come from and their primary system will select the mayor and perhaps governor. Are any residents of NYC posting here? What are your views on the ex police officer who became mayor? He seems pretty much right wing authoritarian to me but I'm an outsider looking in.

Having regularly been on the receiving end of bigoted, power-tripping, fascistic man-childs, this is particularly satisfying to watch. Especially when the citizen is disrespectful.
Reminds me of the recent incident when I came close to telling a traffic cop how to do their job. After getting hit from behind, the arriving officer greeted his friend (the guy who hit me) and proceeded to ask me questions about what I was doing. If it weren't for my previous experience dealing with fascist cops, he might have rolled me. But I knew how to handle that kid.
At one point, I literally did have to point at our smashed vehicles and say, "He hit me from behind!"

Note, Ohio is a open carry state. Holding a gun in the open is totally legal in Ohio.
The guy holding the camera is kind of a dick, funny, but a dick too.
