People Noticed Something Odd About Zohran Mamdani's Ashura Celebration

The Islamification of New York City continues, with Mayor Zohran Mamdani celebrating Ashura, the tenth day of Muharram, which is the first month of the Islamic calendar. It's a significant celebration in Islam, and Mamdani marked it by vowing a more 'just City for every New Yorker.'

But see if you can spot what's unusual about the pictures.

Building a more 'just city' seems to exclude women.

Sure seems sexist to us.

No, we're not.

It's alarming and sad, really.

They don't matter.

This is (D)ifferent, of course.

And Imam Hussain? He's a real peach, too.

Weird how that didn't get mentioned in Mamdani's praise.

And it would be nice if a journalist asked Mamdani why women are excluded from these events. They won't, but it would be nice if they at least made an effort.
