Video Does Not Show American Flags Torn Down in After Mamdani’s Win

After Zohran Mamdani declared victory as New York City’s first Muslim mayor, social media users widely circulated a video claiming to show Muslims tearing down American flags in the city.

An X user shared the footage with the caption, “Muslims ripping down American flags in New York City. I think it’s pretty clear how and why Zohran Mamdani was elected. The same danger and threat everywhere. Stay alert, never let snakes live near you.”
