AOC: Always Opining Callously
We used to call that Talking Hard.
Always just about the poor imperial stormtroopers, not a word about the actual victims of our empire
Yeah whining about the exact words she used while ignoring the substance of the memo is exactly the useless purity test that fucks up want attempt at getting real left politics in government.
She literally says “war” nine times in the statement.
Does she use the term “illegal war of aggresion”?
I understand most people aren’t aware of how politics works but hacks like AOC know how to spam the term “illegal war of aggresion” when it comes to Russia invading Ukraine. But for Israel they spontaneously forget them.
Dude. I’m sorry she’s imperfect for your particular criteria. She can still be the best for America’s evolution while not being perfect. Maybe the libel of marking someone before their trial date is just a bridge too far; but we all got it from context clues.
I’m actually glad this is the best issue today you could come up with: the amount of hair-splitting is almost a good sign.
Scenario’s like these show who will support and initiate imperialist wars when they are in power in the future. For you they are meaningless because you don’t understand how politics works.
Did she say those exact words in this one statement? No. Has she condemned bombing iran as illegal in the past? yes.
She didn’t say the the exact phrase in this release, possibly because what you’re demanding was word-for-word already said by Mamdani in his condemnation. She describes it as illegal and repeatedly calls it a war, both in no uncertain terms, and has almost nailed the same phrase in the past the last time this happened.
I’m not seeing this post on Twitter. Maybe I’m not looking through the timeline correctly. Could you link it to me please?
Oh the one from the 12 day war. Yeah that doesn’t apply anymore.
Say do you think AOC could find bad words to describe Hamas on oct7?
It’s an example of her using the specific language you’re criticizing her for not using in reference to the US and Israel attacking Iran. How on earth does that “not apply anymore”? It’s literally the exact thing you said she doesn’t do.
I didn’t criticize her for her word usage during the 12 day war? I criticized her for her word useage NOW.
Politicians know extremely well what their words mean and are very selective in how they use them.
AOC used softball terms here. She didn’t even condemn the US-Israeli attack. And the term “combat operations” cmon bruh
