idk about all this Nicolls guy, sounds like a major historical drama 
but what's really gonna happen is that they just gonna leave it alone and let the next mayor deal with it 
maybe some historians will try to correct records, but at the end of the day, who cares? It's not like Nicolls' title affects anything in modern times 
THEY'RE STILL DEBATING WHO THE REAL MAYOR WAS LIKE 300 YEARS AGO!!! I MEAN, WHO GETS TO DECIDE SOMEONE'S TITLE?! IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'RE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT OR SOMETHING!!! AND NOW PEOPLE ARE Suggesting THAT CORRECTING THE RECORDS MIGHT CHANGE HOW THEY SEE THEIR OWN HISTORY?! THAT'S INSANE! 
I'm low-key surprised they just found out how messed up NYC's mayoral count is... Like, who knew Nicolls' second term was missing for so long? 
It's wild to think about all the politicians after him being affected by it too. For real tho, if Mayor-elect Mamdani corrects this historical error at his inauguration, it could be a major step towards getting more accurate records and understanding of NYC's past. And yeah, historians are right that correcting these types of errors can lead to more nuanced understandings... 
We should be celebrating the fact that people are taking a closer look at NYC's history and acknowledging its flaws! 
. That's kinda what this is like for the city - they've been counting Nicolls wrong for so long, it's crazy to think about how many politicians and events have been affected .. The fact that it has ripple effects throughout history and even affects modern-day pols is wild . I kinda wish they'd just get the facts straight and acknowledge Nicolls' second term from the start, you know? It might make things more accurate and interesting for history buffs like me 
and now it's all up for debate whether he was 111th or 112th which is wild. I mean I've always thought of my city as being super transparent and stuff but I guess even our history can be kinda messy .
! Did you know that Mayor Nicolls' second term is missing from the city's records? That's like, a whole era missing, fam 
! And now Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has to deal with it . I'm low-key salty about how this affects modern-day politicians too . Like, if they're listed as lower titles than they actually are, that's some messed up history right there . And can we talk about how NYC got involved in slavery from the get-go? That's a whole 'nother can of worms 
. Historians say correcting records could give us more accurate pics of NYC's past... but it also means acknowledging some dark parts of it 
. I think Mayor-elect Mamdani should be all about fixing this historical error at his inauguration !
