      AOC is really good at responding to bad faith right-wing rhetoric. It's something I hope other Dems can learn from.https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1027729430137827328 …

      Just like catcalling, I don’t owe a response to unsolicited requests from men with bad intentions. And also like catcalling, for some reason they feel entitled to one. pic.twitter.com/rsD17Oq9qe

      Bad faith? Shapiro: "Hey let's debate our positions on the role of government." She Guevara: "Stop hitting on me!" Jeet: "Boy that Shapiro sure was operating in bad faith."

      In a free society, no one is under any obligation to debate Ben Shapiro.

      In a free society, she can respond in any way she likes. You don't get to tell a free woman how to respond to a publicity stunt.

      Replying to @HeerJeet @prosqtor

      Considering she is running for public office I don’t think asking for a debate is in some way excessive. The 10k for charity was a generous offer to boot.

      Considering she's running for pubic office, she has better things to do than take part in a publicity stunt with a rando.

      Haha, I’m a rando. I’m just some dude who yells in a metal band. Shapiro is a thought leader on the right. Rando isn’t an accurate description. Furthermore, I imagine if she thought she could make a convincing case, she would.

      Shapiro has a rabid fan base but he's a rando in the broader culture. A politician usually debates other politicians. No reason to debate some guy just because he has cash.

          Does winning a single primary make one a “politician” in such a significant way that renders her unable to debate an (inarguably) well known political figure?

          So then you agree she has no business going on any other news programs as well then? Since shes so busy? Because he also invited her to just talk on his Sunday cast

          Lmao, she’s looked pitiful anywhere she’s been when she’s been asked how she would pay for anything she’s proposed. Ben is a Constitutional Scholar, how is it that someone with a degree in Economics, can’t explain how to pay for the social programs she wants? 🤔
