Flipping The Right's Falsity: AOC Really Was In Danger During The Insurrection

[PoliTalker]

Hello Darth,

Alright lol.

If the claim is that 1/6 was armed insurrection, let’s see a list of firearms confiscated from the insurrectionists along with the federal charges associated with it/them.

Shouldn’t be too hard.

Clubs, knives and spears were documented. A fire extinguisher was used as a weapon. One insurrectionist claimed he was going to "shoot Pelosi in the brain."

Sure, some thought they were just going to stop Congress from acting. Still, they broke and entered. They trespassed. Others were intent on killing. A gallows was erected. They chanted: "Hang Mike Pence!"

When an angry mob is bent on death and destruction, the government being their target, it is an insurrection.

Good thing they were so disorganized and the officials were safe.

Tragic, a police officer had to die in the violence.

[PoliTalker]

AOC was understandably concerned for her well-being.

[BartenderElite]

Of course she was.

The mob was rabid.

[PoliTalker]

It was a mean mob.

They were bent on death and destruction.

It is entirely understandable that she was afraid for her very life.

How would you like to be AOC and see all the nasty comments directed at you from the right?

Her concerns were totally justified.

[Darth Omar]

Whenever the right does something thoroughly reprehensible and inarguably perverse and disgusting, instead of owning
it by decrying it they look to the left's reaction of justifiable horror, roll their jaundiced deplorable eyes and say it's no big deal
you are blowing it out of proportion.

The attack on the US capitol is no exception. It's nearly as disgusting as the event itself. Repukes are a reliable disappointment
nearly all the time. Never the good, never the aspirational, always the loathsome and deplorable collective reaction.
Other great examples are every mass shooting at a church or school or Vegas event.

If it were a serial killer we could all agree on it, but because these horrors are being visited by the far right and they have
embraced these scum, they apologize for them and blame us.

I guess our reward with have to be winning all the elections from here on out until they come to Jesus on their disgusting vomit selves.

Whatever lol.

The condemnation of 1/6 by republicans AND Trump supporters boardered on universal. We stop short of getting hyperbolic with it though. Some wag, I think it was a democrat congressman, called it ‘comparable to Pearl Harbor’. What an insult to the thousands of US serviceman who lost their lives that day.

No one *so much as laid a hand on* any of the politicians present. They were all shuttled off to a secure location. Kinda like what they had to do with the Trump family back in the summer when raging lefties occupied Lafayette Park for days—and not hours.

Oddly, I don’t seem to recall similar outrage or hyperbole over that. I wonder why that is.

However the fire extinguisher was used as a weapon it wasn’t used on Officer Sicknick. And he did not die in the violence. That’s misinformation.

So, there were no active firearms present inside the Capitol—except those possessed by the Capitol cops. Is that correct?

If AOC barfs her lunch from Elena's all over the sidewalks of Queens,
what she leaves on the pavement is of more value than any trumpanzee on this forum.

[Geeko Sportivo]

she's an idiot.

Look where she is- vs. where you are!

She actually cares about people and you hate your fucking self and everyone else! WHAT A LOSER YOU ARE!

Anyone that calls themself AssHatZombie cannot even have any respect for themself

You are going to learn one of these days, if you really want to be a SMARTASS, then you better wise up! Otherwise you are JUST AN ASS!

ok, upchuck-eater.

When you've led a sheltered life of safety like AOC has, her reaction is predictable. The Capitol riot was scary for her and she hyper-over reacted in a panic.

[Into the Night]

Some on the right have made the false claim that AOC 'made up' her terrifying experience during the Capitol Riot.

She did.

Setting the facts straight:

Making up shit is not facts.

1. She was definitely in danger.

No, she wasn't.

2. She was justifiably terrified for her safety.

No, she wasn't. She MADE IT UP...again. This is not the first time.

I doubt many on the right who have downplayed her reflections have actually been sexually assaulted themselves, so they can't know what AOC felt on that deadly day.

AOC was never assaulted.

Ocasio-Cortez wasn't in the main Capitol building where the House and Senate Chambers are located.

She claimed she was.

What's False

However, Ocasio-Cortez never claimed to be in the main Capitol building.

She claimed she was.

When the attack on the Capitol began, Ocasio-Cortez was, as she stated, in her congressional office, which is located in a network of office buildings immediately surrounding the Capitol, and her office building was one of the two buildings that were evacuated.[/B]

Irrelevant.

One theme covered in her retelling of those events was how her past experiences with trauma, particularly surviving sexual assault, had compounded her fear during and after the Capitol riot.

AOC was never sexually assaulted.

“I’m a survivor of sexual assault. And I haven’t told many people that in my life,” she said toward the beginning of her story. “But when we go through trauma, trauma compounds on each other.”

AOC was never sexually assaulted.

Ocasio-Cortez also observed that it’s a painful fact for many survivors of trauma that they must deal with people who try to minimize what they experienced when they tell their stories, in an effort to silence them.

Psychoquackery.

It took less than 48 hours for the right-wing disinformation machine to contrive a way to minimize what Ocasio-Cortez said she had experienced.

WRONG. It is not a 'minimization'. It is calling her out on her bald faced LYING.

In a circus of cyberbullying that began on Feb. 3, 2021, conservative news outlets and social media conspiracy trolls latched on to the misleading claim that Ocasio-Cortez “wasn’t in the Capitol building” and therefore was not in harm’s way, as she had described in the Instagram video.
...deleted repetitions...

She claimed she was in the Capitol building.

AOC was understandably concerned for her well-being.

BULLSHIT

[Grokmaster]

THERE WERE NO PROTESTORS WITHIN A HALF A MILE OF THE LYING-ASS, DRAMA QUEEN ,ATTENTION WHORE.

SHE WAS NEVER IN ANY DANGER.


MAKEUP SOME MORE LIES TO COVER FOR HER....

Haven't seen any footage from that day, eh?

It's not hard to find. You should check some of it out.
