the desperate mud slinging from the GOP is going to be hilarious. i'll never forget when they tried to shit on AOC because she was caught gasp dancing in some student project music video.

and god-fucking-forbid anyone ever tends bar for money

They're just mad that she's an attractive young POC

[–] AnarchoSnowPlow@midwest.social 87 points 4 months ago (1 children)

They hate women so much, it's crazy.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 30 points 4 months ago

Especially women of color.

They’re just mad ~~that she’s an attractive young person of colour~~

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

It’s all manufactured outrage. In reality they don’t give a fuck since they are all dead inside. It’s the tan suit scandal all over again. If they have zero qualms with Melania being a former nude model and Trump’s infidelity then them being mad about someone dancing is all just theatrics. It means they have nothing on her.

~~young? young?? She's almost 60, I mean no disrespect to anyone because of their age but I would not consider 60 young.~~

Edit: My bad, i thought it was about KH

Wasn't sure if this was a joke or if I didn't read the thread correctly, but the reply above yours is in regards to AOC, yeah?

She's still got it!

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 47 points 4 months ago

What the fuck, is that a woman having fun? Dems are absolute degenerates, unbelievable. She's smiling. What is wrong with you people?

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 46 points 4 months ago (2 children)

[–] BlorpTheHagraven@startrek.website 15 points 4 months ago

Well, he's a man.

Both sides can eventually lead to the same thing in the end, but are focusing on a different path to get there.

We take that video as something where someone is generically trying to say that AOC isn't serious enough to compete in politics, but the goal for the other side is to show that AOC is just like all the other (comparatively) younger women out there and that specifically is what leads to her not being serious enough to compete in politics. It's not bad because she isn't serious, it's bad because she's acting like a woman. From that perspective, the only thing Stormy did wrong was going against the typical process and speaking out about what happened, beyond that, she was playing the expected part.

I hold no doubt in my heart that they absolutely hated this because they found her hot.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 13 points 4 months ago

she's undeniably super attractive, but what they hate most is that they fear her. they know that she will humiliate any one of them in a debate, and people love her for it. so they lash out and talk about her bartending days, thinking that it's an attack because that's just how fucking dumb they are

[–] Schmuppes@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

She is. And that video was.

[–] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 34 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This better not turn me into a socialist or something

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Resistance is futile. Surrender to the glory of Socialist Mommy.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 4 months ago

The lack of Socialist Dommy Mommies is why the USSR failed

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 27 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I'm surprised Project 2025 doesn't call for a ban on dancing.

[–] nonailsleft@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Maybe there are parts even they don't feel comfortable disclosing yet

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 21 points 4 months ago (2 children)

What was Boebert doing before she got her GED at like 30?

[–] Red89@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago

Doesn't matter, the GOP are hypocrites; Rules for thee but not for me.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 4 months ago

Escort work.

Sex work is work 😤

[–] nonailsleft@lemm.ee 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You're totally ignoring that she had her hair done and stuff

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 months ago
