I love that so many of you hate her for the same reasons you love trump.
Why is that?

Hahaha

Do you think the world will be destroyed in 12 more years?

I don't
Has nothing to do with my point

Then you find what she says stupid, too?

I love this woman.
She is going to be so entertaining in the next few years with all the stupid # she says...

Great for the GOP

So...she gets upset, occasionally says things that aren't factually accurate, doesn't care what others think of her, and doesn't have a lot of political experience...

But yet it's scary to you that a lot of Democrats would consider her for president when she becomes legally eligible?

That description sounds EXACTLY like Trump. You're scared of someone exactly like Trump, but the progressive version of him, becoming president.

That makes me chuckle.

I didn't know Cortez was a successful billionaire with decades of experience in business. I'll be damned.

I never said she was. And that has nothing to do with my argument, therefore, strawman.

To the point: Her political description is exactly the same as Trump's. The only differences are age, gender, and what side of the aisle they lean towards.

And the majority on ATS seem genuinely scared of her (why else would people come up with every reason to put her down?), yet they laud Trump for acting the exact same way.

It's an interesting thing to watch.

I do not know much about this woman, don't care to. I did however see this, and it makes sense.

The timeline Ocasio-Cortez referenced was likely based on a U.N. backed report, released last year, that predicted the consequences of man-made climate change would become irreversible in twelve years if global carbon emissions are not immediately and dramatically reduced.

“Facts are facts, America. We should care about getting things right. Yet standards of who gets fact-checked, how often + why are unclear,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted Monday. ”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez admitted that she gives “zero” f–ks when her Democratic colleagues criticize the youngest woman elected to the House for speaking her mind.

She sounds Like Donald Trumps Illegitimate Daughter.

Think about that Progressives....

All of Trump's kids are successful. I wouldn't put Cortex in the same sentence. She acts like she didn't make it through middle school.

And yet, she now holds a high government position. At 29 years old. Seems pretty successful to me.

Because she was elected by a bunch of radicals in her district? That's like the grand wizard getting elected in a district full of white supremacists.

Why does that negate them being successful? Her getting elected to that position due to "radicals" (or the grand wizard in your example) doesn't lessen the accomplishment. I'm not saying either of them are good people, but being good and being successful are completely separate things.

Objectively, Hitler was "successful" when it came to political prowess. That doesn't mean he was a good person. He was just successful. Same with the Zodiac Killer. Horrible person. But, "successful".

ETA: I also wouldn't categorize her district as "radical". Progressive, sure. But I can think of a lot of areas in the country that are way more radical than the NY 14th.

Over 2,000 nuclear bombs have been detonated on earth since the 40’s, but a three degree increase in earth’s average temperature is going to bring total obliteration?

This cortez woman is delusional, trying to spread fear among our population. I sure hope she doesn't believe the crap flowing out of her mouth at times. Are all people in New York that bad?

Again, just like trump.

You all love him
Hate her

It's very interesting

I don't love Trump. But he is the president of the USA and I do believe the Republican economic solution is best for our country and believe that building at least a partial wall is better for our country. I don't understand why Democrats are so against it, it was originally their idea. It would save the American people lots of money in the longrun by reducing border control jobs. I guess the Dems want everyone working for the government under their control.

If Trump lived around here, I would avoid him, big headed big business men are good for the country but that does not mean I would want to listen to their bragging all the time. Except CEOs who work for Pharma companies, I think they tend to take advantage of the citizens, considering them marks that can be exploited. Most corporations are not that way, the maybe twenty percent that are sure give corporations a bad name though.

I feel like, when I read all of these AOC threads where people are posting memes of her face with things she hasn't remotely said just to try to drag her down, you're really showing your hand that you're worried she's actually going to do good things for the country and you're just trying to make fun of her in any way possible just to try to ease your worry.

Are we all ok with that? Memes with absolutely no basis, just to make fun of someone you disagree with? This is what ATS has come to? acting like 4chan/Reddit trolls?

Maybe I should just start responding with Trump memes, but with ridiculous quotes/lies he's ACTUALLY said, just to even it out.

But I won't, because I'm not that childish.

"Deny Ignorance". Except when posting memes that say nonsense, none of which has been said by the subject of the meme. Then, go nuts and be as ignorant as you want.

The far left sound more and more like the religious right every year.

I post those memes because they're funny, not out of fear.

If you posted funny Trump memes, I'd laugh.

It's really that simple. This is the mud pit. Grow up.

Trump has been around politics for 50 years, he just never became a politician. He went straight from businessman to president. Cortez is working her way up the same way all of our corrupt politicians do. They all work for each other on both sides. Since Bush Sr., we haven't had a president from either party that was in it for the people. Trump is the first one since Reagan. Cortez is nothing like that. She appeals to radicals and people ignorant enough to think socialism would be successful in a country 330 million strong where a little over half are paying taxes.

I find it hard to believe that anyone in scared of her, a lot of other democrats don't even like her and the same goes for Americans.

Bush senior. The people. Lol.

The only way to reduce these emissions is by pollution. So either we start banning the environmentalists and keep up our normal human pollution in the atmosphere and let the world continue her weather pattern she's had for billions of years, or we keep trying to go green and clean everything up, thus furthering this global warming theory. The whole thing is irony at its best.

Decisions decisions.

I've been around doctors 40 years, just never became a surgeon. But I want to throw my hat in the ring to do the next open heart surgery. I'm sure I can do it, I've been around it for decades.
Different topic, same ridiculous argument.

For the people? For his friends and fellow billionaires, maybe. I can honestly say, without bias, that he hasn't done a single thing to help me, my family/friends, and most of the people where I live. In fact, he's done the exact opposite, and wants to do even more.
He isn't for the people. You just believe him when he says he is.
Or, if you'd rather:
He isn't for the MAJORITY of the people, he's just for a small minority of the population.

Wait. So in your mind, our options are..
A. Do nothing and let pollution continue uninterrupted
B. Clean everything up "and further the global warming theory"?

What's bad about B? Make the earth cleaner, but in so doing, acknowledge that progressives may have been right?

Trump has said crazier sh!t than this and became president.
