AOC thinks “austerity is murder.” She’s an idiot. Unfortunately, she has a following.
Typical leftist = AOC. Craig Shirley took her patent ignorance and lies about Reagan’s alleged racism head on with specificity. She responds by changing the subject to AIDS, Iran Contra, etc. The old strawman technique. She’s shallow, ignorant leftist who unfortunately is in Congress.
“AOC Gets Philosophical at SXSW: Like, You Know, Like, Whatever, You Know? [Montage]”

From my own memories:
The gutting of our mental health system +
- The explosion of homelessness under his watch +
Democrats organized and relentlessly pushed to end institutionalization of the mentally ill, who were then forced on to the streets. These poor souls were deemed to be spiritual beings who deserved autonomy and freedom. It was deemed wrong to *force* these folks, many of them schizophrenics, to continue taking their medication, resulting in the “explosion of homelessness”.
As for Iran Contra and the crack epidemic, maybe we should ask the CIA? What sort of control did they exert within the Reagan Administration, considering that GHW Bush was his VP, successfully put in place by the Deep State to keep Reagan in line?
This is what comes from the notion that each person "has their own truth". It doesn't really matter what the historical records show. She has her own opinion of Reagan. Therefore she wins the argument.
a true scatter brain, like good leftist idiots, she believes her own nonsense because she is somebody now
AOC knows what she knows. She is impervious to “schooling” about anything.
That statement demonstrates that "Occasionally Cogent" is quite an accurate moniker. First, Bauman insinuated nothing. She quite clearly STATED that OC never read any. However, it is indeed quite possible that the utterly useless "education" OC received never gave a positive analysis of Reagan's life. That says as much about the liberal teaching and media professions as it does about OC's reaction to them. If a liberal doesn't say it, it didn't happen, and anything a liberal does say, can't be disputed.
It’s a trick. The Demonicrats are using AOC rants to make Betobutthead look like an Einstein.
“...pitted white working class Americans against brown and black working Americans ...”
Interesting comments from Ass On Call (AOC)... especially since:
A: She wasn’t even alive then.
B: Her party is the ONLY one pitting minorities against us.
Just sayin’...
Every time she opens her mouth, the Stupid pours out.
But she’s the one who brought up the Welfare Queen and racism. She only wants to move the goalposts cuz’ she got schooled and knows it...
No matter how accurately the misrepresentations of AO-C are targeted, and yes, even demolished, she deflects and subtly changes the subject, never admitting to a mistaken conclusion on her part, but always pushing to steal valor from another with whom she shares no common values or principles.
This may play well with her compatriots, but again, they also have little in common with what has historically been regarded as the American Dream, a great experiment that utilizes the powerful wealth generation system known as capitalism with the application of the law code of Moses, the Ten Commandments, with the benevolent blessing of Christ, the Golden Rule.
The youth of our country has been sadly and greatly miseducated in the realities of today’s world, ignoring both history and the study of the “hard” sciences, opting instead for some vague misappropriation of the term “humanities”, an idealization of mankind as some sort of self-sufficient entity without need of moral guidance.
I haven’t read any of Shirley’s Reagan books, but he wrote “December, 1941,” an excellent day-by-day description of the days before, and just after, Pearl Harbor.
Highly recommended by this reader.
Virtue Signaling is a policy for the Communist Party.
Isn’t using AOC and the adjective “ignorant” in the same sentence redundant?
She’s doing this purposefully. Poking a stick at the bear will help get that Van Jones-described, “top down, bottom up”, going. The progressive game hasn’t changed, new players were put on the field.
Throw out statements that have no basis in fact.
Leave those statements hang out there for the ignorant and willfully uninformed to continue to believe
Move the goalposts when challenged, and/or claim that one has a different set of facts while providing no proof whatsoever.
You really can't have a conversation with these people.
Not now, not any more.
The listeners just need to hear the words ..... that's all.
NO ONE remembers a retraction ..... ever.
These young enemies, AOC, Tlaib, Omar and Harris are the new faces in tribal chieftainship, and youngsters are flocking to their words, the most effective is AOC.
At the 6:25 mark is the declaration AGAINST THE DEMOCRAT PARTY.
Cenk Uyger was serious !
Please take seriously the war waged against Trump from day one, and the massive uncovering of evidence of felonious, criminal activity enacted by democrats of MANY departments for the most part unpunished, and the continuing assault on America through the public school system.
Not as many as I'd like, but a few people, here in FR and in my world, REALLY believe our Liberty Tree is dying from thirst.
Wow. She actually had to read some history to come to that conclusion because she was born about 3 months before Reagan left office.
The sad thing is, who wrote that history? It is totally, off the wall, Liberal Lunatic speak.
