AOC recalls being awakened to her 'indigenous heritage'
Fox News ^ | June 4, 2022 | Thomas Phippen

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Saturday her connection to her "indigenous heritage" was awakened while protesting the Dakota Access pipeline with Native American tribes at Standing Rock Indian Reservation.

Responding to a comment on Instagram, Ocasio-Cortez said she wanted to connect more with the ancestral roots of the Taíno, an indigenous people group of the Caribbean, and that American Indian tribes welcomed her as family.

"One of the things that first started awakening and connecting me in a deep to my indigenous heritage was connecting to the Lakota Sioux at Standing Rock," Ocasio-Cortez says in the video.

Huh. And all this time I thought her “indigenous heritage” was that of a scum-sucking pig or maybe a warthog.

Cortez, eh? Yeah, her ancestors raped and pillaged and slaughtered throughout the Americas.

Be sure to remember your heritage as you open the smoke hole in your tipi. Those buffalo chip fumes can be really noxious if you forget to do that.

She is a wack job so it makes sense she is descended from the Arawak.

Whatta laff.

She looks like the dominant Spaniard upper class from Puerto Rico. I know more then a few women from there who look like her sisters. And they weren’t poor. Or “indigenous”.

She might have a few molecules of Taino DNA from an errant ancestor who strayed off the plantation for some fun. But that’s it. The upper class didn’t do the mixing thing. That’s what made them upper class.

She’s from the brutal Spaniard overseer class, the exploiters of the Southern Americas and especially the Caribbean. But they lost to the White Anglos, so now they claim Victimhood as if they were the very people they oppressed.

she needs to change her name from Cortez to Sitting Heifer

Wouldn't 'Braying Jackass' be more appropriate, with those teeth and all?

However, it is controversial whether Taíno culture has actually survived, or whether it gradually blended into a shared cultural identity which is descended from African, Spanish, and Taíno cultures, but which can no longer be truly identified with the historic Taíno culture.

I actually think this grifter thinks she has a shot at being Senator. She or who ever is running her bird brain now, gave her this new script with the Leftist word change. NOW it’s ‘commonality’!!! Yeah....THAT’S THE TICKET! The ‘intersectionality’ didn’t work....

She has no idea who Hernando Cortez was or where he came from, does she?

Who cares, AOC? Really. Who gives a rat’s ass?

So many of you millennials think you’re so freakin’ fascinating.

You’re not. You’re just irritating.
