New York Democratic congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez caused a stir for criticizing Israel’s "occupation” of Palestine in a recent interview.
Ocasio-Cortez, who surprisingly won a New York Democratic primary on a socialist platform, made the remark during an interview on PBS’s "Firing Line" on Friday.
The 28-year-old political newcomer was roundly criticized for making the statement then admitting that she is "not the expert at geopolitics on this issue."

She somehow claims the country wasn’t capitalist when it was founded. If I had her address I’d mail her a copy of “The Wealth of Nations” by Adam Smith written in 1776.
aka She Guevera
She must not have read the part in the Bible where God says, "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." Genesis 12:3
Ancient Cisgender white patriarchal homophobes with toxic masculinity or some such. She’d have a stupid answer for most everything you threw at her like that.
Not a “wise Latina” I guess.
This dumb chick is the gift that keeps on giving!
That’s seriously nightmarish!
Who is the guy in the gif?
People continue to prove Ron White’s adage “ you cannot fix stupid” as a correct statement
You keep posting that meme on every thread. What’s the point? Do you have a fetish or crush on her?
We need to keep her around and as the voice of the Democrats for as long as possible. She’s brutally stupid and her “ideas” will be a very effective vote repellent everywhere outside of a handful of socialist crapholes like the Northeast, Chicago and the Left Coast.
It will be very telling if this airhead does not publicly debate any opponents before the November election.
Heh, it’ll only exist in successful countries.
As for sh*thole countries (or SanSh*tcisco), oh well.
Earth to Alexandria: Socialism will NEVER succeed in this world. Two centuries of examples have proven that it ALWAYS runs out of other people’s money.
This is great. She is going to be the gift that just keeps on giving. :-)
This poor child has no perception of capitalism. Capitalism exists in all forms of governance.
The difference between capitalism in America’s form of government and capitalism under a Socialism form of government is that in America the individual owns and controls his capital whilst under Socialism only the state controls the capital, which is the means of production.
Capitalism has existed since man first walked upright on this planet and capitalism will exist as long as man exist.
Never underestimate the power of ignorant people in large groups.
It would be easy to make fun if we could see this candidate interviewed by Katy Tur.
