Elitist AOC out of touch with national crime spike

Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Commie (D-NY) has called the national spike in crime "hysteria," making reference to Sigmund Freud's sexist expositions on hysteria and how it's kind of a 'woman thing.' But far be it for me to call AOC a sexist--she's an elitist and there's no doubt about it. [H/T Fox News]

The far-left member of the Young Commies of US Congress, [they like to call it the squad] was blasted over the weekend after she claimed from the safety of her security she receives, that concern from people over the spike in crime rates across the country, particularly in Democratically-run big cities, amounted to "hysteria."

Easy for her to say.

In a conversation with Rep. Jamaal Bowman (another D-NY), over Zoom, the former bartender tried to cast doubt over the actual data showing crime rates rising in cities throughout the U.S., especially in New York, where shooting incidents and murders have risen 53% and 13% since the beginning of the year. The thing is, AOC didn't feel as if crime spiked, so as far as she's concerned, it "di'nt.

"We are seeing these headlines about percentage increases," she said in her signature nasal voice. "Now, I want to say that any amount of harm is unacceptable and too much, but I also want to make sure that this hysteria, you know, that this doesn’t drive a hysteria and that we look at these numbers in context so that we can make responsible decisions about what to allocate in that context."

The far-left Young Commies of U.S. Congress member was taken to the woodshed by critics on social media following the baseless comments, with some calling them "shameful," and others mocking her for downplaying crime statistics while feeding into premonitions of the world ending due to climate change.

Joe Concha, a Fox News contributor said that people who live in her New York City congressional district "who are afraid to even put their kids outside" didn't agree with her statements--most people who can think for themselves, don't.

Journalist Glenn Greenwald tweeted "ordinary people" didn't have the luxury of having private security to protect them, and "acted to ensure $2 billion more in spending on the police that protects her" by voting "present" on providing more funds to the Capitol Police.

AOC is perhaps one of the biggest hypocrites in congress, and it shows.
