Voters in the largest city in America are choosing a Democratic nominee for mayor via ranked-choice voting. The crowded field is led by former governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned from the state’s top office four years ago following sexual harassment allegations; state Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani, who snagged key endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York); Comptroller Brad Lander, who made headlines when he was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an immigration hearing last week; and City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams.
This is a ranked-choice primary – only first-choice votes will be tabulated on election night. Final vote calculations will be released July 1 and updated weekly until all ballots are counted. Republican Curtis Sliwa is uncontested in his primary.
That is just not true at all. Just look at court cases involving Arabs in Israel. I know that you have done absolutely zero research on the subject and won’t respond to anything anyone says.

Interfaith marriage isn’t even allowed!

It’s literally apartheid. Imagine if the US still had Jim Crow with all the anti-miscegenation laws. On paper, the races are separate but equal, but in practice the fact that people in a minority group can’t marry into the majority group keeps wealth segregated (and reproduces the hierarchical racist structure). The same is true in Israel, obviously, the Palestinians are majority non-Jewish and are forbidden from marrying into Jewish families (who, by the nature of colonialism, hold the vast majority of wealth and power in Israel) unless they give up their religion. That’s apartheid.

I mean, Palestinian Christians obviously are? The ban on inter-faith marriage isn’t the only part of apartheid (and obviously Jewish - Non-Jewish is not the same line as Settler - Indigenous, I’m saying the apartheid is the latter, while the interfaith marriage ban only enforces the former) but it’s a pretty obvious example of how Israel is constructed to maintain a strict social division.

What the hell are you talking about? There was a significant amount of Christian Palestinians before the state of Israel existed, 7.79% of the total population in 1944[1]. Christian communities have existed in Palestine as long as Christianity has existed. I don’t know where I would find information about how many Christians in Occupied Palestine right now are of Palestinian descent, and how many are from elsewhere, but it’s obviously true that a Christian Palestinian faces the same discrimination from the state of Israel as a Muslim Palestinian.
