Zohran Mamdani, a mayoral candidate, faced criticism for sharing a video that mocked Hanukkah with men dressed as Jews. The advocacy group Stop Antisemitism condemned his actions, emphasizing that their traditions should not be used for entertainment. Mamdani previously shared this parody video called "Hey Hanukkah" from the Geeta Brothers Duet Group during Hanukkah celebrations. Voters have also expressed concern over messages linking his campaign to tragic events in Israel, further intensifying the negative sentiment towards Mamdani in the Jewish community.
Zohran Mamdani posts Indian men cosplaying Jews, spinning dreidels and lighting the menorah. Our holidays and traditions are sacred and not for your comedic pleasure - ZohranKMamdani - this is sick.
Mamdani shared a similar video from the same comedy group on Christmas Eve 2024. Wishing you all a very merry Christmas from Astoria and Long Island City.
