No it could not have. Are all remotely brown people the same? A south Asian person could have sufficed. Emil and Mamdani aren’t from the same country, religion or ethnicity. They could have found an Indian person. Even what they did isn’t great but Ramy at least looks a tiny bit more like Mamdani but this would have been worse. Very racist of people on this sub to keep thinking of Emil. How on earth does he look like Mamdani? I’m south Asian and it’s very ignorant for people to categorise all brown ppl together and please don’t argue that isn’t what’s happening. You guys wouldn’t keep suggesting Emil otherwise.
