    Shaun King Retweeted New York Post

    She didn't flip out. You literally just made this up. Even you saying she flipped out when she didn't is a form of discrimination. She calmly and methodically explained the bigotry and laziness of people butchering and mocking her name.https://twitter.com/nypost/status/1108886270904885250 …

        Growing up [as a Spanish speaker] I use to get made fun of for pronouncing Spanish names correctly; I live in CA there's so many things with Spanish names😀. Learning how to properly pronounce names is a sign of respect, I try my best to practice what I preach.

        People are so scared of @AOC & I find it amazing. Here’s an intelligent person just going about her business, talking reality in many topics & the right & corporate wings of the parties are just shitting their pants. And, that my friends, is when you know you’re doing right!

        but is the New York Post really news, or mainly grocery store tabloid sensationalism?

        AOC is a rock star and role model for young politicians on both sides of the aisle. She is a class act her ELDERS would be wise to emulate. You go girl @AOC !!! Superstar!

        Sounds like someone accusing a fem of screaming, when she had actually calmly, in a regular room temp voice, explained something that he mentally c/not handle So he accuses her of yelling at him & being hysterical = A typical way some use to attempt to belittle a person's worth
