AOC’s Comms Director Asks Twitter To Ban Users From Citing AOC’s Support For Violent Riots
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s communications director asked Twitter to bar users from sharing one of the New York congresswoman’s previous tweets in support of protests.
AOC posted the Twitter thread in question just a month before a mob stormed the Capitol on Wednesday, claiming that “protest demands that make others uncomfortable” are “the point.”
Despite the communications director’s insistence that the tweet was taken out of context by “right-wing accounts”.
AOC has a track record of backing destructive rioting in support of progressive causes as she sees fit.
In August, the “Squad” member told a New York radio station that some groups, including marginalized communities, have “no choice but to riot” against injustices.
AOC also delayed condemning an Antifa attack on an Immigration.
Hours after word of her silence on the issue spread, Ocasio-Cortez told the Daily Caller that “any act of violence is of course terrible.”
