AOC was awesome on This Week this morning

5/5

The Batlord 06-16-2019 02:20 PM

I'm really wary of liking politicians based on their personalities as that's a quick way to get duped by a psychopath but she actually does seem like a genuinely good person, and a genuinely good person who proposed the Green New Deal. And she was on hbomberguy's stream so I'm having a hard time not liking her.

OccultHawk 06-16-2019 02:27 PM

The sound of her voice vibrates my penis.

The Batlord 06-16-2019 02:30 PM

I was assuming that's where you were coming from tbh. Can't blame you.

OccultHawk 06-16-2019 02:38 PM

Yeah but she said $15 an hour pegged to inflation

:love:

I just think it's funny that she would entertain supporting Biden.

So you just looked at the title but didn’t listen to what she said. She made it absolutely clear that Biden is the wrong direction in the primary and for the party. She’s saying only if backed up against the wall between him and Trump. And btw, the policies she’s talking about implementing would save my ****ing life so yeah her endorsement carries weight with me. And she ain’t no joke. We better hope she’s the goddamn future if we want one.

I watched the video. Still thought it was funny. We'll see who she endorses after all the candidates have had their say. After watching MSNBC and ABC try to blackball Yang it wouldn't surprise me if the rest of the progressive get the short end of the stick again by all the major networks.

OccultHawk 06-16-2019 08:33 PM

Yang is in the debate isn’t he?

Skip to around 26:08 and listen to what he says. That's what I was alluding to.

I like her because she seems like an actual outsider like Trump did except not a bumbling idiot to be puppeted. That way we get something that's not a career politician working in self interest like Hillary and probably Biden too. Who is she supporting? Bernie?

She hasn’t endorsed anyone yet but I think it’s like 70% chance it’ll be Bernie 30% Warren

I'd rather take Bernie. Don't know much about Warren's policy just that she exploited a system that was supposed to help natives. Natives need all the help they can get. The most oppressed people in the states that always get ignored. Not that I can really knock her for it, you take the opportunity you can get.

I thought it was to be accepted into her college because they have a quota or sumn.

Frownland 06-16-2019 10:06 PM

She mainly cited it to help with her university's diversity quota but later used it on for some Native American women cookbook or something like that.

Lucem Ferre 06-16-2019 10:10 PM

Then the Republicans acted like she was the most racist thing ever which was fairly ironic.

Any time a Dem does something that can be construed as racist the Reps make it out to be the worst act of racism but any other time racism happens they pretend like it doesn't exist.

Either way I still prefer Bernie.

Yeah, I didn't follow it too closely. I only knew because I actually sat through a youtube advert where she took a DNA test to prove she really had native heritage.

She took a slot away from a real Indian.

Anteater 06-17-2019 07:03 AM

I could totally see her chucking tomahawks and stuff at Lewis & Clark.

That's on the university. True Native Americans are hard to come by though, it was a pretty thorough genocide.

Psy-Fi 06-17-2019 07:48 AM

It seems highly unlikely to me that she didn't do it for her own self-interest. Otherwise, she would've listed herself as being white.

Do you think Trump has some worth as a person that should be preserved?

Frownland 06-17-2019 07:35 PM

He does if he can survive in the gladiator ring.
