When I was growing up in the 1980s, there was a galaxy of left-wing, even socialist, intellectual stars such as Noam Chomsky, Michel Foucault and Gore Vidal whose works were like an inkwell that politicians and commentators could draw from. Judging from the Munich Security Conference this weekend, that inkwell has run dry.
Take this gem of a comment on global order from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, queen of the democratic socialists: "What we are seeking is a return to a rules-based order that eliminates the hypocrisies around when too often in the West we look the other way for inconvenient populations, to act out these paradoxes."
Allow me to translate this into English: "The West is bad and mistreats the marginalized rest of the world."
The use of 25-cent words and highfalutin sentence structure cannot hide the banality of what AOC is saying. Not even the assuring allure of assonance would help, given the asinine simplicity of her word salad.

Maybe its just that AOC hired Kamala Harris as her speech writer.
They don’t even seem to have Maureen Dowd to quote from anymore, is she still around?
AOC the Queen of Cringe
So the author chose an Epstein-Island Pedo, a neo-marxist pederast who raped Algerian boys, and a flaming homosexual who claimed to have had sex with 1000 men before the age of 25
Time to step back and re-assess who your role-models are.
Does anyone in the REST of the world even understand what AOC said? Seriously?
Well, marxism exists only as the opposition to the established order. they really have no knowledge other than that. that’s why mamdani has no idea wtf he’s doing, even though he could just look back to guiliani’s time and find clear answers.
Because they are babbling idiots. So is Kamala Harris whose word salads are legendary. So is Gavin Newsom, although he hides it better. Anyone listen to Jasmine Crockett lately? Or Maxine Waters, or any of the socialist/communist fools who infest the Democrat Party?
The left....intellectual? According to themselves...they can’t even figure out how to get I.D..
Well done.

Somehow ‘’Munich’’ and “Democrats’’ seem to go together.
Looking back some eighty odd years that is...
Yeah, aoc, whose rules?
What about all those rules already in place?
What about all those countries established laws that you don’t like?
The two of those twits would make one heck of a stand up comedy team.
They’re naturals.
AOC gives stupid c*nts a bad name.
Can you remove “REST of the”? I don’t understand it either.
It might have been more effective if she had closed with a Howard Dean growl.
Oh dont use that word. Lets just say she
Cant Understand Normal Thinking (wink wink)
Thanks for the clarification my FRiend!
