'What's wrong with the shape of your head': Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh faces racist trolling; 'Go to Mogadishu'

Somalian-American Minnesota state senator Omar Fateh was called a 'terrorist', a lite version of Zohran Mamdani in the latest racist attack on social media as he laid out his vision as the Minneapolis mayoral candidate. The Democrat candidate said he would save Minneapolis from hostile White House, increase the minimum wage by $20 by 2028 and stop the police department from interacting with the ICE.

Americans shamed him for his looks and asked him to go back to Mogadishu with his 'mud hut ' lifestyle, though Omar Fateh was born in the US; his parents were immigrants from Somalia.



"I’m not even going to watch this video. I can tell by the shape of his head he’s a Somalian. Somalians should not be running for office in the United States of America. He should run for Mayor in Mogadishu so he can enjoy his mud hut lifestyle there rather than bring it here," Conservative political strategist Joey Mannarino wrote.



"There’s no racism against Somalians, but there are patterns to be noticed. In Minnesota there are five Somalian gangs that operate currently. Five gangs. In one state," he wrote, asking why Muslims in America, like Mamdani, are pushing liberalism while they are traditionally conservative.

"Are you even a legal citizen?"

"Grok, what is the average IQ of a Somalian?"

"Are you married to your first or second cousin?"

"Go back to Magadishu"

"Return to Somnalia. America is full."

"You're going back to Somalia, don't make any long term plans."

These were the replies that he received as he spoke about his plan as the mayoral candidate.

"Minneapolis may get its own Zohran Mamdani. Its spreading...he's basically cloning Zohran's platform," right-wing commentator Eric Daughtery posted.

"The phenomenon of Multi-Cultural Marxist Mayors is spreading throughout the USA - what can be done to stop it?" now wrote.
