BEYOND THE BALLOT…
Apparently, I am being trolled by those who took exception to my post …
Here in the People’s Republic of California, particularly in Venice, California, a beach community that has become a warm-weather resort for the homeless, addicts, and the mentally ill, we find a 29-year-old bartender from the Bronx (New York), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introducing the old communist Bernie Sanders and disparaging America.
Let me know which of these AOC shorthand references to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not accurate or misstated…
AGAINST OUR CONSTITUTION
ATTACK ON CAPITALISM
ALIENS OVER CITIZENS
All OUT COMMUNISM
Or in summary, ALL OUT CRAZY.
Bottom line…
What makes AOC so dangerous is not her ideas, most of which are nonsensical and unworkable in the real world, but the fact that she is being portrayed in the progressive mainstream media as the “face of the Democrat Party” or “the future of the Democrat Party.” Consider what they are saying. The Democrat Party has become the Communist Party of America. Governed by professional politicians who care only about themselves and their political future, the party second, their special interest friends third, and their constituents – maybe.
What has AOC done for her constituents in the Bronx other than to ensure that she would lose an estimated 25,000 jobs for her district because of her economic nonsense that providing a tax incentive was the same as writing a check to a big corporation? A funny position for one that received a degree in international relations and economics at Boston University, graduating cum laude in 2011. It is not that she is ignorant, but apparently, she must maintain the party line: capitalism is destructive to the people; big corporations are evil; all the taxpayer’s money belongs to the government. She travels around introducing Bernie Sanders, an old communist who worships the former Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela, and other nations that have “temporarily” enslaved their population “for their own good.” As if she was the younger heir apparent.
We need to go beyond the ballot. It is not enough to simply vote out Democrats; we need to develop a greater awareness of the threats of communism-lite (socialism) and communism. We need to take back our government, educational, and media institutions. We need to elect people who care for America and not themselves or their party.
Look around, and you will come to the same conclusion as me, we are screwed. As for the trolls, grow up before it is too late, and you are part of the work cadre in your assigned position.
