The funniest thing is that she claimed it was courage to wear it.

Then two or three other people turned up wearing much the same thing.

Fashionable luxury beliefs which cost the holder nothing to promote. If anything they help people like AOC climb the greasy pole.

At least she's made a good argument on the dress. Yes, that did require courage.

Courage would have been wearing an openly pro-American dress. She would have been thrown out of the event. But this virtue signalling? Fit right in. Everyone knew it was theater. AOC is a fraud. What happened to force the vote? AOC showed courage by standing up to the little people and bravely going along with Pelosi. Stunning and brave!

No - not at all

She would have been thrown out of the event.

No - not even.

But this virtue signalling?

No - It's POLITICS - the rich should pay taxes

Fit right in.

No - she didn't - around the rich people: that's the point!

Everyone knew it was theater.

Of course - for everyone and what they wore. Do you know anything about Galas?

AOC is a fraud.

Certainly not.

What happened to force the vote?

Not related to the Gala

AOC showed courage by standing up to the little people

No - they're not little people

and bravely going along with Pelosi.

No - it's politics

Stunning and brave!

No - it's her job

All of these points are really strange, as if they copied a Fox News broadcast. They're also all wrong.

That's merely contradiction, not argument. The other guy that operates this social media influencer account was much better than you. I mean, seriously, the guilt by association fallacy?

Socks is right. AOC did something that at least virtue signaled a statement positive for the middle and lower classes. The question is why her campaign managers are Zionists and she changed her stance on Israel completely; made a pledge to that crap terrorist state, and NEVER talks about capital tax, the only tax worth implementing on the rich.

Bullshit. False advertising for false hope in fake leadership for empty promises and no action.

I'd take the ugliest truth over the sexiest lie any day. Fuck virtue signalling - give us real virtue and ACTION.

So you're making this up as well? The contradiction is the "no", OK? The argument is what follows the contradiction.
