Levine is the most annoying politician. I follow almost every NYC politician on both sides of the aisle on twitter but I had to unfollow him, it got too dang annoying. The “complain about problem thoroughly under his control” pattern is the worst

I worked at a large concert venue when the vaccines first rolled out and distribution was a big logistical question.

We reached out to Levine multiple times to volunteer our space as a mass vaccination site. He never gets back to us and a few days later posts on social about how it’s hard to find spaces in Manhattan that work for this and to reply to his tweet with ideas.

We were like HELLO?? CHECK YOUR VOICEMAIL/EMAIL. Just seemed like he wanted to post on social about being deeply involved with the logistics without actually doing anything.

Yes this is exactly his vibe. Like wants to appear like he is the person calling out dysfunction while simultaneously holding power to curb that dysfunction and doing nothing.

Levine continually shouted about how the city needed to lock itself down, hardcore yo, in the same way you'd find in NE Asia or Europe, well into 2021.

Yet in late 2021 there was such pitiful uptake of covid vaccines among freaking nursing home patients.

Dude just wants to grandstand. He freaks me out. He's always on, always selling, always about Levine.

Well get used to him. He'll probably be the mayor in a few years. Ugh.
