--When Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is referred to by his full name? Might the same respect be offered to the former or at least referred to by his LAST name? (Mamdani)

Sorry, not the poster's (BeyondGeography) problem, but the video subject line. Disrespectful, in my book. It would have taken no more space to reference him as Mamdani, as it does Zohran... Ironic, given the theme of the video is to call out "smears" on the mayoral candidate.

It bugs me. Sometimes these "slights" are unintentional. Sometimes they are not.
