CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

And regarding this imam - every other mention I could find of this issue was that the list was of "potential" co-conspirators and that it was criticized by some as being overly broad. Apparently some of the actual conspirators attended or visited his mosque.

About Guiliani's post? (Please read below.)
And guess who was invited to and appeared at Mamdani's victory party? Goes by the name Hasan Piker. Muslim and communist who has said the attacks on 9/11 were a great, wonderful idea, and who advocates literally murdering middle class people in the streets of America. And more. He has a very large following on Twitch.

It just shows how little the right actually interacts with any real leftists. From the bit I’ve seen online, true leftist commie types aren’t too thrilled to see Mamdani palling around with the likes of AOC and Bernie because to them, they’re too mainstream DNC for their liking.

I thought I’d start a repository for some of the more disgusting attacks on Mamdani. Not stuff about his being a socialist, but rather stuff that doesn’t have anything to do with his policies. Here’s one from Rudy Giuliani:

While I'm not 'anti-muslim,' I am firmly anti-communist, non-pro-islam, and I prefer 'modified socialized capitalism' over democratic socialism.
Fact check: Mamdani neither a communist nor pro-prostitution – DW – 11/04/2025
Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani has won the New York City mayoral election. His victory comes despite many distortions and false claims circulating about him — including one from President Donald Trump. A fact check.

I understand that Mamdani isn't communist, and it remains to be seen to what extent he's going to reflect---truly reflect---Shiite Islam.

Don't you understand? This imam has been biding his time for 32 years, lulling us into a false sense of security. At any moment, he may do something.

I hear they’re allowed to lie and face no consequences. Can you imagine if that was our national leadership?!

A lot of the controversy might arise because of misconceptions about what Islam actually is. To understand Islam one could look to the teachings and practices of the founder of Islam, the man known as the prophet Mohammed and the teachings and practices of those who succeeded him in leadership.

Was he invited? Or did he just show up? (and was barred from the VIP section apparently).

OF course.
Cause it doesn't matter if your guy is buddy buddy with a fellow who has an underage sex island and who has many stories of young girls claiming they were assaulted by him.
Taking a picture with an imam and then never seeing him again is a pretty aggregious action.

I think this thread equates skepticism of Islam with a phobia and if anything bad happens, the “repository” will say “i told you so. “ What if I don’t trust it? I believe in law abiding secularly and the golden rule on a personal level ( my faith tells me this in Romans 13:1-14). Where I fail in this, I will answer to God for it not any worldly totalitarian.

And Trump had a Nazi-type to dinner so hes a Nazi. I know how this works!
Anyway, I dont trust breezy online characterizations of whoever for gotcha purposes. Half the time they dont hold up under scrutiny.

Disavowed what exactly?
It seems like he took a picture of the guy and that's it.
It's not like they hung out together, identified as very good friends, shared "good times" together, shared "common interests", sent each other birthday cards with cryptic creepy notes, had a YEARS long relationship that they hid from the public to a degree.
If you are concerned about their relationship, I will assume you have a more indepth knowledge about the nature of that relationship. How well did they know each other? How much did they hangout?
What, exactly, does he need to disavow?
Cause if it's just a picture......naaahhhhh.
