PoliticsHow the US far right weaponised ‘inshallah’ against Abdul El-Sayed

After Egyptian American doctor Abdul El-Sayed won the Senate primary in Michigan, he became the target of a coordinated digital smear campaign. The US far right weaponised the word ‘inshallah’ as part of its attacks against him. The campaign focused on portraying the candidate through a hostile online narrative following his primary victory. It placed language associated with him at the centre of a wider political effort to discredit him.
