Like a lot of guys on the Right you seem to be locked in the delusion that this is all just a game at the end of the day, which is why we'll continue to lose. You have no respect for what's at stake or you would become gut-sick at the idea of following the twitter bitch-fest like your own version of the Kardashians. I don't get the sense that you understand concepts like having your door smashed in at 4am by a black-bag squad or being beaten to death at your place of work by a mob of ANTIFA because you were doxxed 1 hour earlier and didn't even know it.

My politics boils mostly down now to convincing men to get ready physically and logistically for what's coming but you're clearly too cool for school.

Enjoy your tweets and your political theater.

Who said I'm 'right wing'?
Also, what makes you think I'm not ready (more than most) for societal collapse?
I was ready before Trump even entered the fray. The past few years have been a bonus, which I will enjoy while they last.

Perhaps I merely find it all to be one big cosmic joke & readily laugh at it as a result?

My amusement aside. I'd be happy to hear of actual political measures that constructively oppose AOC. Aside from lambasting right wing guys that is.


Edit.
Another thought.
The DNC primaries & the mixed bag of candidates are already turning out to be an absolute clown show.
That is likely to increase the closer we get to the final DNC POTUS candidate pick.
All the while, Trump is likely to be commenting from the sidelines & triggering the fake-news media crowd across the board.
Then there'll be the media clown show when it's Trump against the one chosen Democrat...

Gaffy won't have anywhere near as much media focused on her as a result.
She may well have to double-down in her antics in order to garner any attention while all that is occurring...

This is a forum for grown-ups to talk about grown-up things, not manchildren who model themselves on comic books.

As I've pointed out repeatedly through this thread, there's an easy thing that you can do to oppose AOC.

1.) Stop spreading memes about how stupid she is. She's not stupid, she and her handlers are smarter than you.
2.) Tell other people in your social circle to do the same, and pass the message on.

No, they'll be very upset. They've spent considerable effort on this project, and they'd hate to see it go to waste.

They will probably try something else, but if they had a better tactic than this one, they'd be using it instead of what they're doing now.

I respect her for being smarter than the guys who keep laughing at her for being so dumb.

I've been thinking about it a lot, and I'm thinking the US will be a socialist nation in every way that Europe is within say, 10 years. Conservatives are either corrupt, like the ones in congress, or stupid and arrogant, like the ones in this thread. We don't stand a chance.

Maybe, but at least Venezuela won't be socialist then, we're going to take out el presidente, half glass full!

Forget about all the gaffes and economic illiteracy.

AOC is going be corrupted by affluence, now that she has gotten her first taste of the six-figure earner life. She will become just another champagne socialist.

Washington Examiner Wrote:Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., recently moved into a luxury apartment complex in Washington, D.C. that does not offer the affordable housing units that were a key plank in the New York congresswoman’s campaign platform.

Ocasio-Cortez, 29, who said in November that she was concerned about being able to afford rent in D.C., now earns a $174,000 annual salary and is living in a newly built high-rise in the city’s Navy Yard area, the Washington Free Beacon reported last week.

The freshman congresswoman, a self-described socialist, campaigned on a platform to expand affordable housing, and her controversial Green New Deal proposal promises “Safe, affordable, adequate housing” for all.

But Ocasio-Cortez’s new building — built by leading D.C. developer WC Smith — is part of a luxury complex whose owners specifically do not offer affordable units under Washington, D.C.’s Affordable Dwelling Units program. The Washington Examiner is not naming the building or complex.

In 2018, a civil rights attorney sued the Washington, D.C. government for allegedly discriminatory gentrification policies, claiming that development in Navy Yard area and other parts of southeast D.C. encouraged an influx of affluent “millennial creatives” who displaced minority residents.

Ocasio-Cortez, commonly referred to as "AOC," repeatedly criticized luxury real estate developers during her campaign, claiming that their buildings hiked up rent prices and pushed low-income residents out of their neighborhoods.

...

Her new apartment complex — which boasts on its website that it vows to take "luxury apartment living" to a higher level — offers over 100,000 square feet of amenities for its residents.

These include: two private massage rooms with state-of-the-art hydrotherapy beds; men’s and women’s saunas; a full-scale demonstration kitchen with wood-fired pizza oven; a 25-meter indoor lap pool; a rooftop infinity pool with panoramic views of the Capitol; a Peloton cycling studio with over a dozen bikes; and a fireside lounge featuring a Steinway & Sons player piano.

Also included is a PGA-grade golf simulation lounge with a wrap-around screen and viewing bar that allows residents to play virtually at dozens of the world’s most exclusive golf courses with the touch of a button.

Yeah, she might end up just bought off.
No way to tell from our distance, but "We'll give you 10 million dollars for your life story, so SHUT UP about your populism." might work.

BTW does Washington Examiner secretly want her place of residence to be discovered or are they just incompetent? They didn't disclose it in the article and even photoshopped its name out of a photo, but I found it after two minutes of searching on my phone based on info given in the article.

I'm with the guys saying "stop talking" she is the most influential woman in America thanks to the right giving her free press (and apparently all the top memesters are banned/blacklisted) like the left gave to Trump.

Next step: we pool some money together for Atlanta Man to rent an apartment in the same complex

Say what you will about AOC, at least she's creating jobs. Well, one job. Well, sort of. For her bf.

Her Wealthy Chief of Staff used a PAC to Pay Her Boyfriend

Quote:Like other candidates, AOC paid Brand New Congress LLC for strategic consulting, in her case totaling $18,880.14. Unlike in the other cases, Brand New Congress PAC turned around and paid her boyfriend as a “marketing consultant”.

Quote:When AOC won, she then hired Chakrabarti, her strategist/patron, as her Chief of Staff. Taking money from a rich guy, trying to hide it by passing it through a PAC, and then giving her benefactor a government job.

Who’s Behind the Green New Deal? Big Money Backs Ocasio-Cortez Socialist Dream Project

The Green New Deal blueprint introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was crafted by three far-left organizations and is being pushed by a coalition of well-funded professional progressive groups and known leftist agitators.
...
Radical groups, Soros ties
The Green New Deal was crafted by Ocasio-Cortez along with three groups — the Sunrise Movement, Justice Democrats and a group calling itself New Consensus.
The New Yorker reported:

The document was written over a single December weekend by the staff of the freshman representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and three like-minded progressive groups, none of which existed two years ago: the Sunrise Movement, a grassroots climate organization; the Justice Democrats, which recruits and supports progressive candidates; and an upstart policy shop called the New Consensus.

Besides helping to write the deal text, the Sunrise Movement has been the central progressive organization lobbying the Democratic Party to implement the Green New Deal.
...
To promote the deal, Sunrise sponsored an activist campaign called “Operation Green New Deal Blitz.” Co-sponsors with Sunrise include 350.org, Organic Consumers Association, People’s Action, CPD Action and Justice Democrats.
CPD Action is led by Ana Maria Archila, one of the two women who infamously confronted Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake in an elevator prior to the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Archila was a guest of Ocasio-Cortez for Trump’s State of the Union.
Archila serves as co-executive director at the Center for Popular Democracy (CPD) and maintains the same position as the group’s activist arm, the Center for Popular Democracy Action.
CPD, which is advocating the Green New Deal, is heavily financed by billionaire George Soros. In October 2014, literature that was part of a CPD event listed Soros’s Open Society Foundations as one of CPD’s “three biggest funders.”
...
Justice Democrats backed the Congressional campaign of Ocasio-Cortez when she was largely unknown and the two are closely linked. According to reports, it was Justice Democrats that originally recruited Ocasio-Cortez to run in the first place.

Waleed Shahid, Justice Democrats’ communications director, reportedly worked on Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign prior to joining the group. Justice Democrats was co-founded by Saikat Chakrabarti, who serves as Ocasio-Cortez’s chief of staff

Have you noticed that our dreaded socialist system delivers health care and affordable education while routinely running a surplus? Meanwhile America runs 100billion dollar deficits while it's citizens struggle to pay student loans and health care premiums.

Our demographics are in better shape than America's. We don't have an opioid crisis. Our violent crime is trivial compared to theirs and we're surrounded by oceans rather than drug cartels.

It would take Labor 20 years to degrade Australia to where the US is now.

In that same 20 years God only knows what the US is going to look like.

Meanwhile Bolsonaro is already cucking to the chosen people and Trump has proven to be virtually ineffective.
