50. Tap the brakes...AOC is the future for Democratic Socialists and the Bernie supporters, NOT the Democratic Party

You should re-read my OP edhopper Yesterday #21

When I said "Regarless of whether you think she's a kook" I wasn't referring to the original poster ToxMarz Yesterday #46

Thanks edhopper Yesterday #53

OP wasn't saying AOC's a kook. Quite the opposite. OP was referencing her unfair and biased treatment by M$M vs Kirk n/t Cheezoholic Yesterday #28

You have a long wait because there is none. The OP just trolled it out of thin air. ificandream Yesterday #34

It seems clear to me that it's describing the general gist of what the MSM is saying, rather than quoting anyone. Scrivener7 Yesterday #38

Thank you edhopper Yesterday #41

And apparently, general statements really piss them off. Which is ... very strange. Scrivener7 Yesterday #45

Yeah edhopper Yesterday #52

I'm sure FoxNews says that. Does MSNOW or CNN? LymphocyteLover Yesterday #24

CBS is clearly throwing down the rose petals for Kirk. That's pretty mainstream. Scrivener7 Yesterday #39

OP is NOT implying Kirk is wonderful. The OP is about the unfair treatment AOC gets in the M$M compared to Kirk Cheezoholic Yesterday #29

I don't need an interpretation. I get what he made it look like he was saying. ificandream Yesterday #32

Why does this anger you so much? The OP is obviously a general description of the current tenor of the news coverage Scrivener7 Yesterday #47
