What are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Flaws?

except this time

I wasn’t there honestly

Maybe fdr served just two terms

did she double down? Is this the new thing people want to torch her with?

can AOC serve four term? If so, THEN she can talk.

I didn't even notice what the issue was with what she said.

yes, she doubled down

Hey Rep. Cheney,

I see from your dead people comment that you get your news from Facebook memes, but the National Constitution Center + Newsweek are just two of many places where you can clarify your misunderstanding of the history of the 22nd Amendment: https://t.co/Je6mHFJ687 https://t.co/np1XtgLpm1

She said they passed an amendment in 1944 when really they proposed it in 1944 and passed it in 1947.

xp

It’s an incredibly dumb controversy

well passing an Amendment in 1947 to stop FDR from being re-elected shows that they really hated that dude

she got it wrong, it's an understandable mistake, the 22nd was clearly targeted at FDR and his legacy, but insisting that she actually got it right based on a strained reading of history is not a great strategy

People believed in ghosts then

no it was better back then. Great in fact.

just wait until Professor Ocasio-Cortez sees my scathing course evaluation for her ConLaw class.

Yeah, I don't think that is doubling down. She's not wrong, her selection of words relative to the timing of how it played out is not great as shown in that newsweek article.

what an incredibly silly thing to devote any number of ilx posts to

vmic though

Also ILE board description.

Captain Kirk let Edith Keeler live, and FDR was overthrown by the Germans in 1943, I recall

xpost, yeah i feel stupid for defending something that doesn't need defending.

I just made the mistake of looking at my dad's fb to see if he has anything new public (because I haven't spoken to him in over 2 years and am not fb friends). Holy crap are there a lot of messy memes about AOC being stupid. Obsessed. (this fascination with Maxine Waters and Pelosi too).

I have to admit that I was taught that the Presidency is term-limited because it killed FDR and Congress didn’t want that to happen again.

if FDR had run for a fifth term, it might've cured his polio.

Winning a fifth term unlocks a new level in Democracy

lmao

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez quits Facebook, calls social media a ‘public health risk’

The New York Democrat said she stopped using her account personally, but her campaign still sponsors several active ads on Facebook.

i have not really been paying much attention to AOC but she's got that right

yeah A+ and a good reminder for me to erase my account

deactivated a couple weeks ago and it's been v good

likely AOC couldn't understand Ryan because he makes that face while talking and no sound can escape his pursed lips

AOC on Biden: "Does not particularly animate me...I don’t want to go back. I want to go forward.’"

“I haven't endorsed anybody but I'm very supportive of Bernie."

“What Warren ‘is bringing to the table’ is ‘truly remarkable and transformational.’”https://t.co/Ps0pMMMMeJ

This is a story from the future. It's the story of the world we won by fighting for a #GreenNewDeal. Written and narrated by Representative @AOC.

• Has a boyfriend.

This is only going to drive that incel Tucker Carlson even further up the wall.

Has a boyfriend

plz don't. this is a bad direction for this thread.

Yes please let’s keep this to her flaws

Thought this was good: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/lamvo/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-aoc-conservatives-liberals-meme

AOC is the brightest political star born fully of the social media age, and how her political image has functioned online is emblematic of how society now experiences politics. A detailed examination of her digital persona offers a glimpse into the new digital partisanship — how Americans cleave to their ideological matches. Her rise and portrayal offer insight into the central qualities of contemporary politics: relatability, authenticity, and communities built around their identity. And the intense enmity toward her shows how those very same qualities can repel people.

1) The team behind the Green New Deal is alarmingly under-informed about the subject matter
2) The Green New Deal doesn't address the role of housing, urban design, or zoning in carbon emissions
