    i thought we were talking about AOC publicly backing giving arms to isreal. Harris would have been just as guilty as biden, as she said herself. would she have been as bad as trump ? of course not, which is why i voted for harris. but that does not mean she gets a pass, and neither does AOC. whomst we are actually talking about. and my main point being that her stance is hard to swallow. nothing more. i will be looking for someone better in the mean time

      If you’re not sure what the conversation is about, you are allowed to ask for clarification.

        ? the original post mentions AOC and MTG, the post i responded to is “ What is this referencing specifically, “taking MTG’s side over AOC’s”?”

        i have no idea where Harris comes in other then she was also criticized rightfully for backing israel during a genocide.

          not all issues are equal. backing genocide is a hard pill to swallow.

          Your words.

          If you weren’t talking about Harris you should have made it plain.

          Or are you saying AOC is backing genocide?

            I’m assuming this is way back when there was the isreal missile shield vote. MTG was part of the opposition to it, AOC basically argued it was purely defensive so we should back it. IMO that’s one of AOCs worse takes on a subject that I’ve seen, when otherwise I would say I like AOCs stances 95% of the time. -TheFogan
