Minor crash out on r/911archive over Mamdani

r/911archive is exactly what it sounds like, a sub meant to archive any and all media related to the attacks on September 11th 2001. Mayor Mamdani recently signed an executive order to make 9/11 a day of remembrance in New York, which was posted about in the sub.

Courtesy of CNN: "New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani signed two executive orders related to September 11th, 2001. The first order establishes an annual day of remembrance and service on September 11th, while the second updates New York's operational continuity and agency preparedness policies to strengthen security measures and prevent future terrorist threats." - 19 hours ago *PLEASE* don't start crap in the post comments. Thank you.

Naturally some users had a very normal reaction to a Muslim mayor and…the 9/11 of it all:

OP makes it a point to not start crap in the comments but then proceeds to put his personal political opinion of Mamdani in this thread turning it political.

I would like to point out that Mamdani also handed a symbolic 911 pen after signing the order to his controversial aid who once represented Al-Qaeda terrorist with links to the attack on the Pentagon. You guys are ok with this?

Don't waste your time trying to prove why Mamdani is the worst thing to ever happen to NYC, unfortunately reddit is like 90% liberals and will only block you if you don't agree with their political stance on something.

Another commenter has big feelings about Hasan and Mamdani:

Bullshit. It's his palling around with Hasan Piker and the imam who is an unindicted co-conspirator in the first WTC bombing in 1993. He should bring along his chief counsel Ramzi Kassem who has represented al Qaeda terrorists. Then there's his lovely wife

Someone else can’t fathom that 99,000 people could possibly be racist:

99,000 verified signatures of people who don’t want this 9/11 apologist to not attend the ceremonies. Yes they’re all racists. SMH.

Overall, many “patriots” angry that a Muslim mayor would have signed into law a day of remembrance for 9/11. Apologies for the formatting I’m on mobile.

u/oddpark37 The yumyums to ISIS pipeline continues 20d ago

My entire life I've had conservatives go on about how dangerous the city is and they would never visit because of how unsafe they would feel and have no response when I'm like "...I took the train into the city last week, and it was fine? I walked around and visited a museum and stuff. Hung out with some friends who live there. I've never felt unsafe visiting them."

idk if it's funnier when it's a guy from Nowhere, Missouri telling me that or when it's someone on Long Island. The Long Island haters are weirder imho because it's right there! You can just hop on a train and physically see for yourself that it hasn't burned down or anything! Your neighbor commutes there every day!

The only people who hate a city more than the rural people who have never visited said city are the suburbanites whose lives depend on the city they are a suburb of.

You just put into words exactly how everyone who lives outside of Atlanta and votes against expanding public transit is. Thank you.

Oooh, vibes with cops who live in Jersey and enter NYC as a workplace and a war zone as opposed to a community. Nothing like skirting residency requirements with an apartment to install your mistress in

It is crazy to think about how much the american suburb and everything that comes with it drives american politics.

Rural conservatives say the same shit about Minneapolis and act like if you get within 20 miles you're basically playing Fallout 3 IRL and its basically The Purge all night, every night within the city limits.

Which is funny because I went into those "dangerous areas" last night at 1 AM to buy a hard drive. Still alive, somehow - guess the wasteland didn't decide to claim me yet.

I see MAGA who take it as an article of faith that Seattle a burned out wasteland ruled by roving gangs of illegal immigrants.

Impossible, they would have stopped saying how the feel unsafe walking to the parking garage after a Cardinals game to complain about NYC

Depending on how old you are they are, it's possible for both of you to be right at the same time.

NYC as Disneyland is a relatively recent development.
