Is the article meant to be a parody?
[edit]According to the article, every government spending increase of Mayor Hoan was a good thing (and there is no mention that a lot of this spending was funded by the State Income Tax), and every city takeover of a utility (or anything else) was a success. The Mayor is remembered as "one of the best", "experts say...." and so on. Is the article meant to be a parody? I know that Wikipedia is a pro big government site - but there is such a thing as going off the top. You might as well say that Mayor Hoan was saint, and that whenever he went to the toilet people flocked to enjoy the fragrance. Have a sense of proportion - you can praise someone whose big government politics is similar to your own, without going over the top and producing an article that reads as if it was written as a parody of the "Progressive" position.2A02:C7E:1CA8:CE00:5C27:E3D0:DFF0:2514 (talk) 15:30, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Your caricature bears no resemblance to the article. As to the actual content of the article, we go (as always) by the reliable sources who have written about Hoan. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:34, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
