FFS, you are such an insipid lib cliche. All you're really saying is 'WWWAAAHHHHHH! You're picking on a lib!' Just because she's a 'prominent' woman in your opinion doesn't mean I have to get on my knees and lick her a** like you do. How dare I hold her to the same standards that you hold people to with whom you disagree. I happen to find strong, intelligent women VERY attractive. I'm married to one, moron! I happen to be writing a story and the female characters are exactly that, strong and intelligent; not the whiny, nasty, temper-tantrum throwing victims that people like you grovel to.

AOC is a childish, mouthy little brat.

Go breath some fresh air instead of liberal farts.

And no, I was in no way triggered by your comments. I laughed at how vapid those said comments were.

Wow, it truly is shocking and pathetic how scared the right-wing is of her.

I've seen numerous speeches, an exposing of corporate corruption in government and her questioning of Cohen. Mouthy, little nor brat fit as a description of her. At all.

In fact, she was clear, concise and devastating in her accuracy and making her point.

I guess that is what scares the right.

They seem to do this any time a clear leader emerges on the left. They rush to undermine at all cost with fabricated quotes, conspiracies and propaganda.

I like how you try to claim the moral high ground while throwing out childish insults and making broad, unsupported assumptions about what I believe.

I do not revere AOC. She's at times naive and can't tell you how she'd follow through on an idea. But her heart is in the right place, and unlike the President, she's actually willing and able to learn from mistakes.

More importantly, I'm not praising AOC so much as laughing at how conservatives are fixated on her, as if she represents the sum total of the Democratic party. And I notice there's a distinct pattern of latching on to a prominent woman Democrat as a punching bag, often with attacks that have as much to do with her looks as her supposedly vile policies.

I also note that he did not even address the substance of your comment, that the opinion many people have about AOC are based on things that are verifiably untrue. Don't like her or disagree with her? That's obviously fine, people disagree. It would be nice if people wouldn't be disingenuous about it though.

conservative media has been built on demonizing democratic women. problem for them is that hillary simply won't be relevant that much longer (she's got to die at some point), same with pelosi. warren probably has another decade in her, maybe. AOC? she's not even 30 yet. that seat is hers probably as long as she wants it. the could easily be the boogeyman for the rushbos and whatever propagandist shouting heads follow him for the next 3+ decades. much as hillary has been for the last 3 decades.

She is the best thing to happen to the Republicans since Hillary (another easy target to attack). I am sure Trump and his cronies are licking their chops just dying to attack her radical agenda and taint the entire democratic party with it. They are already saying she wants to take away your hamburgers and pickup trucks (serioulsy). And as absurd, asinine and distorted as this is, the republican base eats it up. Maybe the republican fear her, but the democrats should fear her more.

AOC hasn't espoused a radical agenda. Her agenda is pretty much New Deal type stuff. The utra-rich have set their yap dogs after her because they like keeping more of the money their workers earn for them and a return to New Deal ideas means they don't make money even faster than they are now.

She fucking said that RUSSIA IS HER NEIGHBOR. Everyone knows exactly what Palin said and what she meant. Who cares if a much smarter, much wittier female distilled the reality of her message into perfect satire? (remember: satire is only satire when it is couched in truth)

Why are you so profoundly desperate to attribute a thing that everyone knows she fucking said, to someone else? Why the fuck is this "what Palin said" issue, and "anything not 100% pure, unrestrained capitalism = evil" the only two things that you set post alerts for? lol--every single time someone mentions the thing that everyone knows Palin said, you have to chirp up "Nuh uh! Tina Fey said that! haha, take that, liberals!"

You and your bro are so damn predictable about the issues that really grind your gears.

Like Pavlov's bloody dogs.

Parts of it are pretty out there. They don't even have universal basic income in Europe. That proposal is to the left of Europe.

How so???
Because she is an easy target for the conservatives to attack, and just plays into their hand of labeling Democrats as a bunch or ultra left wing socialists. She is basically a loose cannon. And yes, I know Trump is too, but somehow he seems to get away with it and people even love him for it. Dont think it will work that way for AOC.

Yet Richard Nixon considered implementing it. Its not nearly as extreme as you think and a wide variety of ideologies has considered it. There just wasn't a societal need for it until more recently as our technology is enabling more jobs to be permanently replaced with technology.

I disagree. Just because they lob childish shit at her constantly is more an indication of their behavior and is not indicative of the ease of insulting her. That's just how they try to insult people (if you want a good laugh, watch them howl if they receive similar, they then cry worse than anybody). That's how they try to go after everything from the left. We've seen that backfire plenty too (like their screaming about the ACA, eventually people saw how completely bullshit that was, in fact that alone was a big reason why the Democrats gained in the House this last election, people were pissed at the lies that the GOP tried spreading when people could look in their own immediate families often and see people that benefit from the ACA, even if they also recognize that its flawed; its also made people more accepting of public health care).

Uh, sorry you're a moron if you think AOC is a loose cannon. I disagree, I see a lot of people loving how she responds to the right wing agitprop in decidedly non-Turmp ways, by concisely hitting them on their bullshit. Turmp just warbles nonsensical dumb shit and grade school level insults. And if he ever gets called on anything he cries like the biggest goddamned baby in the history of anything ever. If you can't clearly see the huge disparity in AOC and Turmp then holy shit, your brain is just plain broken. Or you're intentionally trying to tear her down by comparing her to Turmp knowing that most people despise him and his pathetic antics.

AOC is essentially what the future of politics looks like - unabashed liberals being liberal without being afraid of being called a liberal.

And it scares US conservatives that the word liberal may no longer have any inherent negative connotations to it - something they've been poisoning the well with for 30+ years.

Full stop.

Intelligent my ass. She sounds like most high school seniors. Maybe an opinionated barmaid. Give her enough rope, watch her swing.

PS: I don't appreciate that when I try to say "see you next Tuesday" and it gets changed into some weird fruity thing .
