The definition of "privilege": Wearing a "Tax the Rich" designer dress to $30,000-a-ticket gala
HotAir ^ | 09-14-2021 | Ed Morrissy

Satire is dead. Nothing says “a woman of the people” like wearing an ugly designer gown festooned with a class-warfare slogan to a $30,000-per-ticket gala event. The only way possible for this to get any more hypocritical would be if some fashion magazine infamous for its own elitism offered hosannas from the red carpet.

Somehow AOC struck it rich and it makes you scratch your head. Instead of being an elected representative, she’s chosen to be a personality. She’s a character. Her power grows among those who dwell in the valley of the absurd.

How is it hypocritical? I'll bet not a single person in that room considers themselves to be part of "the rich".

I’ll say one thing for AOC, she learned the system faster than most. I am pretty sure she is only in her second two year term and already knows how to mingle with the rich & famous while sending a (meaningless) message to the common folk. That takes not only chutzpa but enough knowledge of the system to know how to play it.
Most Congress Critters take at least 3-4 terms before they figure it out.
She will be there a long long time, growing more powerful every term. Think Nancy Pelosi. Or maybe Maxine Waters.

Absolutely true! She has a dedicated ring in what is now a four-ring circus.
“The Squad” is nothing without her. They’re ugly and mean. She’s their queen.
I don’t look for any Republican to rise any higher than a glorified, self-indulgent circus barker. With few exceptions, they only yell and point. Even if they regain the majority, it will be up to the people to get anything done.
I’m game.😊☕️

The dress and makeup could have fed a lot of homeless.

Ha! About says it all. We’re in a state of delirium and the “f” word seems normal.

None of this hypocrisy matters until it is made to matter. Wear a “Kill a
Commie for Mommy” dress to “start a conversation”.

Didn’t P.J. O’Rourke have a book out called “Eat the Rich”?

Be sure to wash all that makeup off before cooking.

I’m sure Progressives are delighted with her taking the message into the villains’ domain, much as we laud those kids for posing with Biden while wearing Trump merch.

She illustrates the lack of seriousness among our elected clowns.
