What are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Flaws?

Anyway, I'm still waiting on your route to success.

... I disagreed with your statement that one was more productive, yeah.

You’ll have to keep waiting on that thing I’ve never claimed to possess I guess?

You should ask if I’ve stopped beating my dog next!

can somebody please beat me over the head with their opinion until i am dead

Fine, maybe I extrapolated too much from that.

Convenient!

here you go, Brad: Lana Del Rey is terrible

"Seven Wonders" rules!

in the spirit of this thread, i feel like the musical opinion that should be beaten on someone's head is probably something about radiohead or the 1975

er wait, no

i think this calls for a straight up beatles v stones discussion

Hail To The Thief really is their best album

nooooooooooo we were so close to solving something

The Blessed Madonna remix of "Levitating" is meh.

How can you say Nickelback is awful if you haven't had a quadruple-platinum album yourself?

Nickelback is better than The Strokes

Historical import aside, The Beatles were too inconsistent to be numbered among the greats and all of their albums are rife with unforgivable flaws.

(Shit, almost forgot.)

Fite me.

xxp

Lol, I see my Twitter challops truly struck a chord of sorts

lol not gonna lie, mentioning The Strokes will always make me mad

Take your anger to the next level:

Noteworthy album covers of 2020

(Sorry.)

The Democratic comms masterminds are right in tune with this thread.

Both @CoriBush and @AOC might be two of the lowest income Americans ever elected to the United States Congress.

They reflect America in terms of class more than almost all of their colleagues. pic.twitter.com/hfsz7NpuLG

so weird that the only people even close to my income level seem to represent my interests much more than all of the rich members of congress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who are the six Senate poors?

willing to bet the poors are like 15-20 years younger than everyone else on average.

class and generation are such strong relevant predictors of ideology yet you can't engage anyone on those terms because they get angry and that's bad.

Those look like really nice shoes. Fashionistas: what's the deal?

I don’t think it’s fashionistas who have a problem with them. It’s people who haven’t kept up w the fact that Birkenstock’s have been very hip and acceptable for like the last 5 years.

nice

Some days I wake up & it seems there’s 500 GOP wannabes pitching themselves as the “anti-AOC.”

First of all, as Republicans y’all don’t have the range.

Secondly, most of you are just afraid to run against your actual Dem opponent. It’s lazy. Work harder. https://t.co/rMMQOSo3lG

We laugh now but when she runs for higher office we'll see all these "her negatives are so high, just like Hillary's" stories

an excellent rejoinder by AOC... that no Republican will ever be exposed to

its not AOC but she's good too

Firstly, this is my country & I am a member of the House that impeached you.

Secondly, I fled civil war when I was 8. An 8-year-old doesn’t run a country even though you run our country like one. https://t.co/zcKKjdC8ju

I've been offline for several days, but I did watch the VP debate. Most of it was the usual carefully crafted talking points, some blatant lies from Pence, and the frequent evasion of direct questions by both participants, but there was one moment that genuinely astounded me. It was when Vice President Pence, speaking to a wide cross-section of tens of millions of Americans, referred to Representative Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as "AOC" with no further explanation of who he was speaking about.

That sort of three-initials fame in the USA has been limited until now to FDR, JFK, and LBJ. And she's a first term congressional rep! That moment truly gobsmacked me.

You know, I noticed that, too. At first I thought it was a sign of disrespect, but then I thought it was a symbol (however unintentional) of her power.

OTM

For the record @Mike_Pence, it’s Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez to you.

otm

@AOC is live

https://www.twitch.tv/aoc

if you've never bothered to check out twitch, this might be a fun way to do it

(it's just streaming video)

AOC for president in 2028 imo

disappointed, I assumed she would be streaming rimworld

she is chilling on her twitch stream, with 240K viewers (and rising), getting ready to play some game, and also talking about voting on the WFP line for people in NY, and distributing resources for how to vote for people in other areas (most of which are probably younger(?)), all the while in a very natural way, without reading a script, not in a rehearsed way, in a honest, vulnerable way. very few people in congress can pull all of that off right now.

#AOC2028

i just watched aoc successfully navigate a last-minute change of plans to launch the game through steam.

she was fine. it is hard to explain this feeling

Did she unplug and replug her modem

oh god, the audio is feeding back

oh god

i am honestly glad that this reflects a real twitch stream, where nothing is working and you don't know why

i wish all politicians were subjected to this

she's handling it better than i would
