Social Media memes Zohran Mamdani
Someone made a Zohran Mamdani poster generator, and Bluesky made the most of it – 22 funny favourites
Just after Midnight on January 1, 2026, Zohran Mamdani will take up the office of Mayor of New York City, and – we expect – he will simultaneously cause some Republicans’ heads to explode.
His campaign was social-media-driven, as you might expect from a Millennial, so the world has become accustomed to seeing this Bollywood-inspired virtual poster.
Matthew Haughey on Bluesky shared a fun generator using the same font and distinctive colours, whipped up by a professor of computer science at Indiana University.

He was kind enough to add the real creators of the original image, too.
The agency behind the real work is a design coop called Forge and they did an absolutely incredible job https://www.forge.coop/

The generator caught the imagination of Bluesky, inspiring people to make their own slogans using pop culture, literary and other references. The images flooded the platform – which caught our eye.
