"Pack your bags and flee, infidels: New York City has fallen to a cabal of socialist jihadists. With Zohran Mamdani to become the city's first Muslim mayor, many are celebrating the democratic socialist's historic win. Billionaires, Islamophobes and Republicans, however, are in the throes of hysteria. But what's new? The New York mayoral race has been marred by bigotry so unhinged it's almost impossible to parody."
"Actor Debra Messing, meanwhile, has been having a Mamdani-induced meltdown on Instagram, posting story after story about how the puppy-eyed politician is a threat to civilization. She recently posted: In Judaism and Christianity, we are commanded to speak the truth. In Islam, they are commanded to lie if it means spreading Islam Now, take a look at Mamdani He's revealing their goal: mass conversion."
"Mamdani's goal, as he has made almost comically clear, is actually affordable mass transit and housing. One of the reasons his campaign was so successful is that it stayed laser-focused on affordability. However, Mamdani has addressed the attacks against him on a number of occasions, noting how common it is for Muslims to be branded as terrorists. And, it's not just Muslims, I should note."
Zohran Mamdani is poised to become New York City's first Muslim mayor amid widespread celebration and vehement opposition. Campaign rhetoric from billionaires, Islamophobes and Republicans has included extreme bigotry and false accusations, including calls that he will provoke violence. Far-right figures labeled him a terrorist, and public figures repeated Islamophobic tropes claiming Muslims are deceitful and intent on conversion. Mamdani campaigned on affordable mass transit and housing and kept a laser focus on affordability. Mamdani has repeatedly addressed the attacks and noted how commonly Muslims are branded as terrorists and how Islamophobia erases differences among brown communities.
