So, I did some additional googling. It seems like they frame this by asking “Do you think Israel should be a Jewish state”.

As an American who believes you should have the right to choose your religion and no country should be run by a religion, the answer is a nuanced “No”.

But the people using bad faith arguments will ignore then nuance and say “You don’t believe Israel should exist”. Rather than “You believe Israel should exist with religious freedoms”.

Super dishonest, and yes, Mamdani handled it masterfully. All you can do is ignore the specifics and address feeling the question is getting at.
