Thanks for taking the time to answer. I get that it is insulting, and clearly incorrect as applied to Mamdani. The part I don’t understand is how this particular insult rises to the level of “hate speech”. Like, if I called you a white nationalist, that would (presumably) be wrong and stupid, and pretty insulting, but not hate speech AFAIK.

Right, but if you said your white so therefore you are white nationalist without any evidence, that’s hate speech.
Because you’re basically saying we can’t trust them because they’re white.
Ok, I think I understand now. Thanks!
