Alexandria Donkey-Chompers: "Marginalized Communities Have No Choice But to Riot"
Donkey-Chompers is very antifa-friendly, and antifa loves her.
How odd that she would endorse the central claim of antifa's self-justification, that violence is warranted if a community deems itself, or is deemed by middle class white kids with mental problems, to be "marginalized."
I'm sure the media will demand that she police her tone and stop explicitly endorsing violence.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said this week during an appearance on Ebro in the Morning that marginalized communities have "no choice but to riot."
"Once you have a group that is marginalized ... once someone doesn't have access to clean water, they have no choice but to riot," Ocasio-Cortez said about a half-hour into the 55-minute interview.
Her remarks came during a discussion of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but Ocasio-Cortez clarified that she was talking about marginalized groups more generally.
"I'm not even talking about Palestinians," she said. "I'm talking about communities in poverty in the United States; I'm talking about Latin America; I'm talking about all over the world."
A friend of mine, who considers himself to be part of a real marginalized community (that is, patriotic normal Americans), say, "I agree with her. Let's get it on."
And Brian Stelter jumps on AOC to rap her for promoting actual violence.
Just kidding, he claims Trump is promoting violence against reporters by denying the "journalist' Don LeMon's claim that he's racist, and suggesting that reporters should be "unbiased and fair."
This, you see, is provocative and dangerous.
