nah. he made a very surface, basic, general observation based on his limited exposure. that is perfectly allowed and viable, just like anyone else posting about something they don't have a PhD in.Merkin Baller said:
Just because people are pushing back doesn't mean it's piling on. In a lot of cases (like this one), the push back is warranted.HughFreakingDillon said:actually, it makes perfect sense. not knowing that much about her, MTG and AOC WOULD actually appear to be different, yet equally important groups (DUH DUH). they are the ones you hear the other side complaining about the most. on the surface, it makes sense. I never see the need to pile on like happens so often around here.
Here's an idea, maybe don't assume a position you can't defend?
he defended it just fine as far as I'm concerned.Hugh, I am concerned about your concern. I am in no way a fan of AOC, but to compare her to MTG is absurd.
are we forgetting how MTG uses violent rhetoric to harbor anger between Americans? How MTG used violent imagery with guns to intimidate Americans?Does AOC use violence to harm others while gaining more power for herself?0 -

that level of "disgust" is obviously because of who she is and what she has previously said to/about that community, not only what she posted.
My god the standards are so fucking low right now. lol.
I would guess that she is not big enough that she can afford a PR person.
The former I understand, there's a lot of big business and dark money behind some of these people. The latter is much harder for me to wrap my brain around.

He equated them by both sides, respective, as being lightning rods for their opposition, leaving out that one draws criticism for being a piece of shit, racist and horrible human being while the other is criticized for her policy proposals and stand on the issues. Context matters or I guess it’s just as lazy as saying “nothing is being done,” right? Both are lightning rods, very astute observation.HughFreakingDillon said:

There are definitely similarities between AOC and MTG. Both represent the extreme of their party. The right thinks AOC will destroy America and the left thinks MTG will.Both have said dumb things.But there are differences. AOC doesn’t seem to say dumb things as often, MTG makes a regular habit of it. MTG is aggressive and abusive with her posts, AOC isn’t. So there’s definitely similarities, but they aren’t the same.0

Those are not similarities of the two congresswomen. You're describing inaccurate similarities of how they are perceived by people who are mostly not paying attention to them very closely in the first place.mace1229 said:There are definitely similarities between AOC and MTG.

Wait a minute, we're actually taking all this time to compare MTG to AOC, lol?Well, just for shits and giggles, let's take a look here...
Yeah, pretty much equals there. Yup... uhh huhhhh...

Butbthey both represent the extreme of their group, are more popular within their group and more hated outside it than almost any other representative.
With that they are similar. Personally they are very different.0 -
On a superficial level the similarities are endless, sure.

I don't understand for the life of me why this gets dragged on. It's a true statement. Left drags AOC through the mud and right drags MTG through the mud. That is all I said, didn't say same same, compared the two in any other way, said one is better than the other.
If I had said they were both politicians some of you would disagree..0 -
I think you said something along the lines of 'MTG is the GOPs answer to AOC' which is a pretty interesting statement in and of itself, but i digress.tempo_n_groove said:I don't understand for the life of me why this gets dragged on.

Marjorie Greene, whether you like it or not is literally calling the shots in the maga republican party. She has raised more money and has more power than almost all of their 220 or so members. She is not fringe anymore. She is regularly talking to the former president. She is reportedly on his list of possible running mate candidates. The "fringe" you feel she represents is Donald Trump's base and they are the reason he is far and away the likely nominee for that clown show party.
Putting aside the fact that one is for democracy and the other played a role in trying to end it, they are not similar, other than both being female members of congress I guess.Post edited by The Juggler onwww.myspace.com0 -

If I had said they were both politicians some of you would disagree..MTG uses VIOLENCE to expand her power, exploits those without the money or power to protect themselves, and on and on, which is the exact opposite of AOC. How people don’t understand this fundamental difference is beyond me. But WTF do I know.0 -

five cops died as a direct result of Jan six. Two of the families are suing trump for wrongful deathTrump did say Milley deserves to die.
if the above is not proof of his dangerous tendencies. I am not sure what is.
as far as trump going after political dissent, his Milley comments are widely viewed as a warning to his supporters of his danger to our freedoms. Many share the opinion his second term will be much more dangerous for those who do not abide by the “trump loyalty code”

Is that not also true, maybe to a lesser extent, with AOC? Some of her policies that she pushed that were considered extreme a few years ago are now much more common. Free college, free healthcare, the green agenda? She's probably not on anyone's list for VP, but her ideas have become a lot more popular, what was considered extreme a few years ago are accepted by her party.The Juggler said:

Butbthey both represent the extreme of their group, are more popular within their group and more hated outside it than almost any other representative.
With that they are similar. Personally they are very different.
Marjorie Greene, whether you like it or not is literally calling the shots in the maga republican party. She has raised more money and has more power than almost all of their 220 or so members. She is not fringe anymore. She is regularly talking to the former president. She is reportedly on his list of possible running mate candidates. The "fringe" you feel she represents is Donald Trump's base and they are the reason he is far and away the likely nominee for that clown show party.
Putting aside the fact that one is for democracy and the other played a role in trying to end it, they are not similar, other than both being female members of congress I guess.Post edited by mace1229 on0 -
elon made an online offer way over valuation of a company he later tried to back out of because of the utter stupidity of the offer, and he has systematically tanked the company. all by his own actions, and no one else's. he's a fucking idiot. so whatever he "gets", is not the own you think it is.Out of My Mind and Time said:HughFreakingDillon said:

LOL! At least we know your "level". Wow. Thanks for the great laugh. Always guaranteed hereGern Blansten said:
No....AOC is intelligent and fights for the people. MTG is a fucking troglodyte.tempo_n_groove said:
I get bits on here and delve in every now and again. It doesn't seem to peak my interest on a deep dive though. She's the GOP answer to AOC it seems. Each one is a lighting rod for the other to go after.Merkin Baller said:
You should start reading up on her.tempo_n_groove said:
I actually didn't know this, I just thought she became popular for joke fodder. I don't follow politics as rabidly as most of you do. Certain things yes but not her...The Juggler said:
She's literally the face of the GOP congress. She's been rumored to be on Trump's list of potential running mates. She's McCarthy's puppet master. To think she is some kind of small time congressperson is utterly ridiculous at this point.Merkin Baller said:
You're not kidding. People love her as evidenced by the amount of money going to her and the benefit of the doubt that continues to be extended to her.The Juggler said:
She outraises just about every other GOP congressman and has more power than just about all of them as well.tempo_n_groove said:
I remember saying about Trump that if you just stop hitting "Send" you might get a little more support. She did remove that tweet so somebody finally told her.Gern Blansten said:
And it shows that she has no one in her orbit that is smart enough to tell her to take that shit down.The Juggler said:
Yes, we would expect a sitting United States congress person to google before tweeting.tempo_n_groove said:
I figure she would have done a quick google search before tweeting.HughFreakingDillon said:I'm simply not exposed to any Jewish anything, so yes, I'm "that" ignorant about Jewish holidays/etc. But she should make sure she knows what she's talking about before posting about it. Simple as that.
that level of "disgust" is obviously because of who she is and what she has previously said to/about that community, not only what she posted.
My god the standards are so fucking low right now. lol.
I would guess that she is not big enough that she can afford a PR person.
The former I understand, there's a lot of big business and dark money behind some of these people. The latter is much harder for me to wrap my brain around.Elon gets itPost edited by Kat onYour boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
