SEE IT: Feminist AOC Wears Symbol That Oppresses Women

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is drawing renewed attention online after appearing at an Eid al-Adha celebration in New York City wearing a hijab alongside New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Video from the Wednesday event in the Bronx — portions of which fall within Ocasio-Cortez’s congressional district — showed the congresswoman speaking onstage while wearing the Islamic head covering as Mamdani stood behind her in a kurta styled after an Arsenal soccer jersey.

The appearance quickly circulated online given Ocasio-Cortez’s status as one of the Democratic Party’s most outspoken leftist figures and self-described feminists in Congress.

Eid al-Adha is one of Islam’s holiest observances and commemorates the Prophet Ibrahim’s (Abraham’s) willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to God. The holiday began this week and is being celebrated by Muslims worldwide through Friday.

Ocasio-Cortez has spent years warning that women’s rights and personal freedoms are under threat in America, frequently attacking conservatives over what she characterizes as patriarchal politics and authoritarian social policies.

Mamdani, the country’s highest-profile Muslim politician, has continued generating controversy recently over his anti-Israel activism and socialist political positions.

The event itself was aimed at outreach toward Muslim voters and communities in New York City, where both Mamdani and Ocasio-Cortez maintain strong support among activists.

The clip of the two politicians at the Bronx celebration rapidly gained traction across social media platforms Wednesday evening, becoming the latest flashpoint in ongoing cultural and political fights surrounding identity, religion, and Democratic politics.

This is how crazy the left has become...”feminists” siding with a cult that invokes slavery on women.

[butlerweave]

What would she know she’s a complete Idiot

[MinorityRepublican]

Islam is crystal clear when it comes to gender roles. And everyone knows their place under Islam.

Naturally, women respond to that by becoming submissive.

Also, this shows that the West is weak. So I don't blame Peter Thiel for relocating to Argentina just now lol.

[Salman]

... ”feminists” siding with a cult that invokes slavery on women.

Democrats in alliance with whoever is against Trump. Because he's Hitler, see?
That really seems to be their thinking.

[Dilbert San Diego]

And I wonder about that wife of Mamdami. She dresses quite fashionably. She is not wrapped up the way other devout Muslim women are.

Why does she dress in fashionable western style clothes? Assuming she’s a devout Muslim., why would she do that?

What about him? Since Muslim men are supposed to control their wives, he apparently gave her permission not to be wrapped up. How can he be a true devout Muslim if he lets his wife dress that way?

[al baby]

Because lying is ok to further islam

[Flag_This]

”Assuming she’s a devout Muslim., why would she do that?”

Sharia for thee, but not for me.

[Cronos]

She should wear a blue burkha like the Afghani women have to niw

[simpson96]

But...but...the idiot lemmings on the Left don’t know that she’s wearing a symbol of oppression. It doesn’t even register with them. They’re so superficial and ingorant, they think it’s cool, stylish, “cultural”.

Truth serves the revolution- Muslims And commies deserve each other.

AOC makes a perfect mate for a jihadi.

Feminist AOC Wears Symbol That Oppresses Women

Actually, the Islamic head covering is more than just a "symbol" of oppression. Rather, it is oppression itself.

And these same "progressive" women will don "Handmaid's Tale"-style bonnets to protest supposed "patriarchy" in the U.S.

The irony knows no bounds.

[carcraft]

I could not agree more. All these “feminists “ prattled endlessly about “The Handmaid’s Tale” then embrace a religion far worse. Islam allows violence against women in Marriage including beatings, and rape. Women seem to exist to please men, if a women isn’t around, a goat will work. There is no reward for women in the Islamic paradise. If a women is condemned to death she is raped the night before so she cannot enter paradise because if she dies a virgin she is guarantied paradise. Some areas have f Islam still support the slave trade. Supporting Islam is insanity.

[bk1000]
