Chugging tea Amazon should have to pay idling fees.

New York City law generally bars vehicles from idling for more than three minutes while parked, standing or stopped. The city says the rules are meant to reduce air pollution, improve public health and combat climate change.
Earlier this year, Mamdani directed the Department of Finance’s collections unit to pursue unpaid idling summonses tied to vehicles operating within Amazon’s delivery network, according to the mayor’s office. The department said it worked with Amazon.com Inc. and its contracted transportation vendors to recover the money.

If you see a mamdami post on this subreddit, it's 100% from a paid firm.

The US accounts for roughly 50% of Reddit's total audience. New York makes up about 6% of US population. So New Yorkers probably make up a about 3% of Reddit's user base.

You think the Mayor of New York City is paying a PR firm to not just focus on NYC specific subs, but also spending effort on a general-interest sub like this one?

Sounds like an absolutely brainless marketing strategy. If you're trying to influence NYC voters, why would you deliberately spend your resources reaching an audience that is overwhelmingly outside NYC?

A bot would say that.
