Interesting thought while watching Seinfeld tonight. [View all]

The episode was about nonfat yogurt and the election of '93 between Dinkins and Giuliani. There was a reference to "Wilding" in the episode without mentioning the jogger rape case of 1989 when the Central Park Five were arrested. Interesting article from 2019 on Wilding:

"What Is 'Wilding' And What Does It Have To Do With The Central Park 5?
Debate around what the phrase "wilding" meant — and if it ever referred to anything at all — continues to this day."

Fatface took out the ad demanding their execution. Then Giuliani beat Dinkins and the trend was estsblished....

First Black mayor of NYC and first black POTUS were both followed into office by Fascists. And they were buddies.
