This is what happens when your political outlook is predicated on treating every claim of "hurt" or "offense" as sacrosanct and above scrutiny. Not all claims of "I'm offended!" are equally valid. They require independent evaluation. The claims of offense re: Omar were bogus

AOC's investment in the ideology of identity came back to bite her here, because it emboldened bad faith critics of Omar to "use her own logic against her." This should be a lesson, but it won't be: the ideology will continue generating phony scandals and cynical attacks

She never took a firm position against the claims of Anti Semitism and indirectly gave them validity but that’s different from labeling.

Yep...she messed up and is blind to the stumble. Worried she has fallen in the swamp.

So, AOC is a socialist who doesn't share half or more of her income and she flies to DC instead of taking high speed ACELA and uses cars instead of the subway, not to mention the nice crib she has in DC, with no low income residents which she is trying to push on us. Poser.

You keep on trying! If you keep saying it, it will work eventually!

AOC is worried & rightly so. She needs to add some balance to this (despite Ilhan being 100% right). We know AOC agrees with IO, but she needs to think about their & people Rashida’s longevity in politics to be able to grow their movement (which everyone knows is growing).

There’s already one prominent AIPAC member threatening that they won’t be in politics in a few years because that’s what AIPAC & other pro-Israel lobbies are planning to do to suppress democracy and free thought.

And btw, there was no 'imperfect moment'. She's learning to be a very good 'politician', speaking out of both sides of the mouth.

I don’t think it’s about treating every claims of hurt or offense above scrutiny. That’s only the cover she uses to deflect discussion away from Israeli occupations. If she treats every claims of hurt with equal care , she would be doing outreach to pro Palestinians n Jewish ppl
