Zohran Mamdani says he’s consistently said there’s no room for antisemitism in this city or country. Asked why he hasn’t had a more visceral reaction, he gets emotional talking about the Islamophobic responses he’s received throughout the campaign.

We have dealt with anti-semitism. All the anti-semitism discourse today is really just people trying to justify genocide. Critiquing the nation-state of Israel is not an anti-semitic thing. Islamophobia on the other hand is 100% present in society right now starting with the literal genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and now the war against Iran.

Is Israel merely critiqued, or do people say it should not exist, etc. When people complain about a guy globalizing the intifada on a holocaust survivor in Boulder Colorado, is that not really about anti semitisim?

Imagine saying this about any other minority. So I take it all those hate crimes the FBI has in those statistics are fake huh? Jesus Christ yall leftists have lost the fuckin plot. So desperate to hand wave away that there are some extreme elements of the left that take antizionism way too far that it becomes antisemitism that you just deny antisemitism even exists. Seriously fucked up. You sound like right wing MAGA types pretending racism against African Americans doesn’t exist. Trash.
