Giving NY a muslim mayor sounds like a very interesting idea. The LGBTQ... Collective is about to discover how it is to live in interesting times.
Mamdani is leading with Jewish voters by double digits just fyi
And that tells is what exactly? That Jews shouldn't vote for a muslim? It's obviously not the case. That humans can't make wrong and uninformed choices?
So what was the purpose of your comment? Framing Mahmdani as a moderate muslim? We're going into no true scotsman territory then, because what is and what's isn't a muslim is very clearly defined by rules of Islam, the Umma and the scholars. What they have said about Jews is widely known, isn't it?
Just say the racist thing you're only implying, for all of us to see.
Saying that he is muslim is racist? How so? Is islam a race? No, being muslim isn't a race, you can't convert to another "race" but you become a muslim. Is being LGBTQ not considered fahisha and zina? Don't the hadiths and the sharia tell how to deal with sinners? Are you calling me a liar?
So if I understand you correctly, you're saying that him being a Muslim makes it inevitable that he will apply Sharia law (or something equivalent) to NYC?
He either is a muslim or he isn't. I made a very clear statement about who can expect what, I didn't say he would introduce Sharia law. Are you saying he isn't a true muslim? Are you saying you know better? Why are you trying to twist my words, is it because you lack understanding or because of ulterior motives?
Got it, a xenophobic bigot. I won't engage further, you're not worth it. I encourage others to simply block you, as I'm doing right now.
I think the LGBTQ+ folk can probably go ahead and not do what you're implying they should do: worry.

What is your problem with the lgbt community? This is the 2nd post of yours implying we're stupid and don't know what we're doing. They're both framed the same way too, "the lgbt... group is about to find out what it's like living with muslims." He's Muslim, so what? The Bible has homophobic and transphobic interpretations, explain queer churches. Imo all religion is stupid, and you putting down Islam is just a sign that you're incapable of critical thinking. Do you think queerness only exists in Christian and agnostic countries? Do you think queer people don't know what Muslim religions say about us? Do you think Muslims can't be queer? Step out of your black and white Bizarro world view man, we're in the 21st century.
