Ocasio-Cortez on Millennials: ‘We’re Like the World Is Going to End in 12 Years [trunc]
Grabien News ^ | 22 | By Tom Elliott

Posted on 01/22/2019 5:53:30 AM PST by DCBryan1

he world is going to end in 12 years unless the government takes action, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said Monday at a Martin Luther King forum in New York City.

Here’s an excerpt from her interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates:

“And I think the part of it that is generational is that millennials and people, in Gen Z, and all these folks that come after us are looking up and we’re like, the world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change. You’re biggest issue, your biggest issue is how are going to pay for it? — and like this is the war, this is our World War II. And I think for younger people looking at this are more like, how are we saying let’s take it easy when 3,000 Americans died last year, how are we saying let’s take it easy when the end person died from our cruel and unjust criminal justice system?

Sooooo....the climate has been changing on a consistent basis for a few billion years...essentially because of the Sun...and this mental midget thinks it will all be wrapped up in “like” 12 years? Oy.

Of course it will. That’s what Hollywood is telling us. Why would they lie?

I suspect that AOC will be held in reserve and drug out when there are no MAGA hat staged incidents to create fake news about.

Just what were the people who elected this uninformed, less-than-intelligent nitwit socialist thinking? What a buffoon.

Saw a fellow I am acquainted with on a forum state he didn't have children because he felt bringing them into this world was a form of abuse with the threat of "climate change" and other leftist fantasies.

I just ignored it - it was too sad and pathetic to reflect on it.
