overwhelming anger that a young woman of colour is unapologetically succeeding.

By her own admission, she is Jewish. I have no problems with anyone because of race but I do have a problem with a race whose common tactic is to pretend to be another race. There is a reason that the "fellow white people" line is so popular when referring to the Jewish race as a whole. So, fine... pretend to be white, get treated like one. This whole nonsense of having a double-treatment system where it's okay for one race to do something but not another is the epitome of evil and it needs to stop. So since we're treating her like she's white, I don't care one bit that she is successful or not.

On Tuesday Turner ranted in the Wall Street Journal that Ocasio-Cortez “has little regard for the system that made it possible for her to be elected to Congress”.

When you tell people who aren't elected to "shut up, filthy peasants", you absolutely don't have any regard for "the system" and should be immediately pulled from office.

“I guess WSJ Editorial Page takes pride in their ignorance of our nation’s history of slavery, Jim Crow, & mass incarceration; willful doubt on the decades of science on climate change; targeting of indigenous peoples, and the classist, punitive agenda targeting working families.”

Ignoring, for the moment, that anything she says after her "peasants" rant should be completely ignored, she (again) has no clue what she's talking about. Fact: More democrats have consistently voted against civil rights laws than republicans with literally only one exception. So stop talking about civil rights, you have no idea what you're talking about.

And "indigenous peoples"??? You're Jewish, you're not indigenous in any way. I can live on a reservation if I want so stop using "indigenous people" as a political talking point. When you gonna get off my land, Cortez?

Imma stop there. The rest of the piece of essentially op-ed with twisted "facts" and outright lies.

This woman should not be in office in any measure.

This woman should not be in office in any measure.

100% agreed. This quote is enough to justify it:

Yup. If you don’t like the #GreenNewDeal, then come up with your own ambitious, on-scale proposal to address the global climate crisis.

Until then, we’re in charge - and you’re just shouting from the cheap seats.

This fucking dickhead works for the American people, not the other way arround. The sheer arrogance is staggering.
