Saturday at the South by Southwest Conference & Festivals in Austin, TX, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said former President Ronald Reagan used “racist,” caricatures to pit “white working-class Americans against brown and black working-class Americans.”
Ocasio-Cortez said, “One perfect example, I think a perfect example of how special interests and the powerful have pitted white working-class Americans against brown and black working-class Americans in order to just screw over all working-class Americans, is Reaganism in the ’80s when he started talking about welfare queens.”
She added, “So you think about this image; welfare queens and what he was really trying to talk about was he was paining this photo, he was painting this like really resentful vision of essentially black women who were doing nothing that were ‘sucks’ on our country. And it’s this whole tragedy of the commons type of thinking where it’s like because these one, this one specific group of people, that you are already kind of subconsciously primed to resent,....

As a backstop against her dangerous socialism, I present you this speech by President Reagan to balance it out.
The Communists that The Jersey was brought back to fight, just ran for office using the votes of thankless foreigners. How times changed.
The Juxtapostion between Ronald Reagan and AOC.
To juxtapose her dangerous ideas, I give you President Reagan: Ronald Reagan's Remarks at the Recommissioning Ceremony for the U.S.S. New Jersey in Long Beach
Ping to you too my FRiends :)
Reagan’s “Welfare Queen” was WHITE, according to official records:
Ocasio-Cortez now hates Ronald Reagan, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Barack Hussein Obama, Donald J. Trump...shucks she hates the American Republic and all the American people!!!
American people ya better get real You get who you voted for. Support POTUS, Donald J. Trump and help us destroy the entire Democrat, Socialist, Communist, Hate America, Political party!!!
Michael Reagan is going to eat this beyotch alive
Why does the media constantly publish her drivel? There are only 3 of these socialists in the House. That’s less than 0.7% and yet looking at media you might think they are a major force.
I’ve never seen so much rambling without saying anything. She sounds like a druggie.
SXSW became politicized pap years ago. President Obama even appeared at it as a public speaker while President. How was that (paid?) appearance even legal? It’s a for profit entertainment (now infotainment) conference. It is 100% lobbying.
AOC PLANS:
-Making air transport illegal, building bridges to Europe and Hawaii
-Destroying and re-building EVERY structure in the USA using green tech
-Doing away with concrete as a construction input
-Saving money for socialized medicine via fewer funerals
-Eliminating beef-eating pets
-Cross-breeding humans and rabbit so we can all become vegans
Because our media is full of “America must change” advocates, they want to be the top elites of change, and going socialist makes them drool uncontrollably.
How racist of her to assume such.
Anyone who speaks like that about one of the two men who freed Eastern Europe from the grip of atheistic communism is a real dirtbag.
In the old Soviet Union less than 10 percent were members of the Communist Party. Look what went down there.
Because these three socialists are leading the party. Have you not been paying attention? Every single serious Democrat candidate for President has gone on record as endorsing AOC's Green New Deal and you can bet they're all begging for AOC's personal endorsement, which will be worth millions of votes.
They are absolutely a major force in US politics today.
The days of Nancy Pelosi Democrats are fading into history. The new players on the left will be Justice Democrats, Brand New Congress Democrats, Saikat Chakrabarti, Cenk Uygur, and the people they mold into younger, better-looking versions of Bernie Sanders.
After President Trump, AOC is the most popular politician in America right now.
AOC photo caption:
Careful. I’ve got my eye on you.
mold into younger, better-looking versions of Bernie Sanders.

How many people could fit that description to replace Bernie?
Around 310 million.
I want to see what the other animated gif was that wasn’t displaying!
This goes over great with her base because there isn’t a damn one of them that knows any history.
