In socialism equality, does everyone get to shop at Saks? Or is it more along the lines of buying your dresses from Target? ;)

Fanatical you do understand that there is such thing as a $100 suit and a $1,500 suit?

So much hypocrisy and AOC derangement syndrome on display here. Right-wing extremists just have this need to push people down and hold them down using the 'logic' of their ridiculous straw men. Everyone is required to fit neatly into one of their little stereotypes.

Some people never left the Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, and my 3 Sons reality of the US. Cause that's the way it really was.

Lol you can't be serious? So things like tax cuts are meant to be the equivalent of being racist to black people? You uhhh... you sure do like to stretch the truth on things don't you?

Are blacks incapable of making money and paying taxes and thus tax cuts never apply to them or something? Something tells me a good majority of sports stars are somehow circumventing our racism, hrmmmm.

I mean, everytime I see hobos on the street I always make sure I feel sorry for the white ones and hand them money and food.

serious as a heart attack. it probably makes you angry, but then all of our brains are wired to go on the defense when we feel that "what we call ourselves" or "how we think"--our truth--are being attacked.

Your response is expected and rational, and I can't fault you for it. This is what happens when the truth collides with your own personal identity. I get it. It of course doesn't mean that what I've relayed is wrong.

It's OK: I see your defense response was to ignore the point of how your brains have been re-wired to interpret classic racist tropes into comfortable issues of "economic policies"--which is only ever the language that you use--so it's funny to watch you do that here, in some attempted defense of the exact problem that I explained to you and simply prove the point by using the same irrational "social economic" classification of where you think specific people belong, and how hyper-generalized policies that absolutely ignore the inherent realities of class in the US, are somehow irrelevant to you because "capitalism fixes everything."

....it's why no one likes libertarians--their ideas only work in fantasy worlds that can't possible exist when real humans, now impossible to divorce from our actual history that has put us here, now, are involved.

Im not saying the OP is whining like a dumb ignorant child, but he is whining like an American Conservative.

Dont worry buddy, even if we get "Socialism" your precious elites will still live much better than the rest of us. You'll have golden idols to worship and I promise you your daily bread of Fox brainwashing will be just as strong if not stronger. You'll be fat and content and unthreatened and you'll never know how bad life really is.
They'll protect you from reality, I promise.

Those are just a way to exploit the rubes.

Yea, playing right into the .01%'s state run capitalism top down class warfare. Socialize losses, privatize profits, give the plebes some stuff to fear and hate so they dont pay attention to the stacked deck.

They want to maintain positions of power for themselves and their families. So yeah, I guess its racism.

More AOC hilarity. She gets called out for her Saks 5th ave dress, which previously retailed for 580(?) but now sells for $232.
That is a pretty good bargain for a woman’s formal dress, I have never purchased a suit for less than $100, then add $30 for the shirt and such. That was a shitty quality suit. $200ish is the norm.
Im starting to believe these conservative papers/twatters don’t want her wearing clothes for “reasons” due to socialism not because she is attractive.


BTW: great dress, great choice for the venue.
They just want to d(eb)ate her!

well....#metoo but at least we are honest about it.
I suspect all that hate on her for dumb stuff like her dress or hair cut or shoes or GA Magazine photos are furiously beating off to her in some lonely locked room.


And you are probably correct Sir!

I might even respect her in the morning.
