Fox News came for Zohran Mamdani because he code switches, and it said so much more about them than it did about him

it's called code switching—common, normal, endearing. https://t.co/5nfcWrDw2b

You didn’t think Mamdani could get better. Now we know he is good at accent-switching as well. Great to see FOX promoting his newly discovered talent. https://t.co/bViBt218Zv

My mother complains when I use my American accent at home. Immigrants are part of this country's DNA, and balancing a couple accents is part of the immigrant family experience. https://t.co/ze0hLnYUSN

Travelled to 50+ countries, studied 5 languages, took courses in a wide range of places from China to Israel to… https://t.co/OJK25ogPGM

The mayor actually has an uncanny ear for accents and languages. That's a good thing. He recorded campaign ads in Bengali and Spanish, neither of which he speaks. The Spanish one sounded so fluent that the Republicans accused him of using AI.

Richard Angwin summed up.
Proud of Mayor Mamdani! Ugandan roots, NYC energy, code-switching is normal for immigrants. While Fox frets over a decade-old accent, he’s freezing rents for 1M tenants, dropping crime, expanding childcare & fixing 100k potholes. Real leadership. Keep delivering, Zohran! 🇺🇬🗽
