    Mamdami having a reasonable public response and twitter “progressives” trying to skewer him over it.

      I like how mamdami didn’t mention nazism but just said “flying a flag with swastika”. Then the other guy says “absolutely misleading, here’s a picture” posts a picture of a flag with a swastika, theyln says “does this look like a celebration of nazism?”

      Sorry who’s being misleading?

      Also nonzero chance he was just told of it by an aide and he didn’t have the full context.

        I think he just understands that a lot of people arent tuned in and it looks really fucking bad to not just condemn some people flying a swastika.

          Everyone understands what it means. Giving in to Zionist concern trolling never works.

    Being compared to the Nazis is NOT Anti Semetic! But Mamdani saying DONT Bomb children IS!

    This hateful antisemitic act was meant to spread fear among and intimidate Jewish New Yorkers

    How does he know that was the intent? I read it like direct criticism of NŤU, you know Bibi’s Klan’s name.
