They focus so much on their faith and their names because Mamdani is doing a great job and there is no real reason to not elect El-Sayed. Some people use racism to get people to pick the lesser option.

He's deflecting by strawmanning and saying people don't like him cause of his name and not because of his past radical statements

Either they have nothing and just searched and posted the first YouTube links they could find THINKING no one would check, OR they think it's radical for El-Sayed to give a speech encouraging minority groups to stand-up politically and have their voices heard opposing those individuals and forces looking to divide Americans superficially.
