i don't begurdge members of congress getting scared by a hooting and hollering horde, but it shows how disconnected from the rest of us they've become when they think that fear for life and limb is something special in this society.

fear of dying if the crazy or cruel people decide you get to die on a whim is a fairly normal experience for most americans but within the halls of power its not something they're used to experiencing anymore

AOC probably was freaked out and has trauma from Jan. 6th even though she was a block away from the site of the action.

Which is fine. It shows AOC isn't going to be a revolutionary leader, but she never promised to be that anyway.

The "Left" in the US is still looking for leaders.

don’t forget US foreign policy which appears to be winding up for a swing at Iran and Venezuela. in general the US Congress and Washington consensus really has no regard for human life, and has naked contempt of that life if it costs them money.

i have empathy for AOC because its hard not to watching someone cry about being afraid of dying - but i also have empathy for all the people that don't have empathy for her because of how brutal and horrendous life in the US is. as always the people running nonstop defense for the most powerful people in the country are fuckin annoying and pahetic

aoc wont see the people mad at her or the losers defending her - whocare!

A careerist freak who interned at Vox, infowars, and just now tried to look everyone in the eye and tell them they couldn't be happy that a bunch of do-nothing politicians were scared because there was legitimate trauma in their past that was, by the nature of PTSD, linked to trauma in the present and thus rendered all fear unjust. When Tsar Nicholas II was terrified in his palace, no one should've been happy because at some point in the past he also experienced fear and the fear he experienced that night probably reminded him of this past fear. That made any joy in the moment unjust and oppressive.
