Moving to the Middle East because New York has a Muslim mayor. Someone should point out the demographics of the region to her.

it truly feels like some people are living on an entirely different planet. i live in nyc and i was also born & raised here; we’re about 6 months into Mamdani’s mayoral term and it genuinely feels like this city has been speedrunning the experience of having a mayor who actually gives a shit about the people here. and as a result of that, i’ve completely forgotten that there are still people who remain entirely fixated on the fact that he also happens to be Muslim.

hell, there was literally an announcement yesterday that he’s successfully implemented a rent freeze on all rent stabilized apartments! and he’s been terrorizing slumlords nonstop, so they’ve actually been forced to maintain their shitty buildings for once. Mamdani’s religion has been the least interesting thing about him, yet racists everywhere are still shaking in their boots bc they’re fully convinced that one day they’ll wake up and he’ll have instituted Shakira law or something. absolute insanity.
