these two huge egos could never have agreed on just how incredibly deeply badly they needed to fuck over the world.
their thirst to bring conquest war pestilence and death would never have been enough for one another. they both would demand more suffering, more sabotage.
I cringed too - got some pushback. Trying to understand/grow. But we totally ignore misogyny, the oldest hate there is that crosses ALL aisles. And people tell you to either laugh or scroll. So they put it on the Internet and demand we like it or shut up? Maybe ignore my comment and scroll yourself?
How come you never attack other misogyny, only when AOC says something you don't like? I look for it, and no one speaks out about the women-haters here except me. Put up or shut up, Lisa.
You're just using this as an excuse to attack her because you hate her, and you hate that she's getting props for making a badass comment that everyone loves.
OMG, pick your battles! As a queer person, I totally get the read and she said it knowing it would troll trump. She's a feminist woman and can use that language. If a white straight man said it, maybe misogynist but in this context, NO!
Although it’s some level of internalised misogyny that when two men are fighting we call them girls. It’s men who typically behave this emotional and petty when their egos get bruised not girls.
great, we've officially reached a time where we need to explain memes to 30yo looking types like they're the oldest boomers seeing a smartphone for the first time 🙄
Spot on. Language matters and the story we tell reinforces our systems. We are in a system of domination and we must change our language to represent a system of partnerism. https://centerforpartnership.org
We are all working toward the same goal… but this is insufferable. The world is burning and a meme reference has us “disappointed”. Le sigh. We can’t fight every battle so let’s choose the important ones.
Why is it any different for someone to post a comment critiquing this phrase than it is for you to spend your time posting a commenting critiquing their critique? Why is it an "important battle" for you to argue with the people pointing out the misogyny in that meme/phrase?
When people like you aren't the butt of the joke, it's easy to brush it off as unimportant. I've spent a lifetime brushing off gendered slights & implications, and it's exhausting. She's a creative person - I'd think she could punch up without also punching down and perpetuating this crap as well.
Ah, but I'd say the same as I did if the issue was perpetuating ugly stereotypes about gay or Jewish or brown people (none if which I am), but would you say the same then?
I mean, people can disagree, but I can express my opinion without insulting anyone. You, apparently, can't.
Women have always been pressured into accepting misogyny, repeating it, laughing along with the "joke" to be the cool grl who's not "over-sensitive." I don't f*ing care if anyone thinks I'm cool. An ugly stereotype is ugly no matter who it targets. She's smart & creative enough to find a better way.
This! I had exactly same thought!I’m disappointed that AOC, of all people, should know better than to refer to ego-driven, narcissistic men as “girls” when they engage in petty public spats. That kind of language reinforces harmful stereotypes.
It's exactly the most painful phrase for their hyper-masculine supporters to hear, and it will do actual harm to the level of support they each enjoy from those men.
Whether this was intentional or inspired without analysis, it's perfect.
No one is missing the bigger point. Punching down on females while 2men are fighting is problematic. AOC can handle the feed back. Don't be sensitive like ....men.
Yes, and we should be able to give feedback to the people we admire. By providing feedback we are not trying to cancel her. She is admired for her leadership and authenticity. As you said unlike other democrats she can take well meaning feedback.
Not missing the bigger point, but the fact “girl” or “gay” are still used as insults is a problem. It’s my opinion and whether you agree or not is irrelevant to me to be honest.
Ditto. I wish the #Democrats would unbend their rigid minds & adapt fr. their old ways of thinking & be more like @aoc.bsky.social, @repjasmine.bsky.social, & @sanders.senate.gov, who understand which tools to utilize when defending their #democracy against the fascist coup currently underway!
I'm not saying this is AI, but ever since I saw those AI videos, I question everything. She's not saying anything controversial, so there's no reason to believe that it's not real, but there's something about the way it's shot reminds me of an AI video.
Still has not said a bad word about Vladimir Putin. He has went off on everybody except Putin because he owes him $4 billion. Putin was elected in 99. Trumps father died and 99 Trump was broke by 2002 February 4 1/2 months after 9/11, he went to Moscow he was broke, now you know why no bad words
Aside from the easy question from journalist, AOC can answers questions in real time with a thoughtful non-rehearsed/messaged response. She took her time to answer without getting irate and putting on a show. More pols need to do this.
As a counter to your post - conservative party (known as the Liberals) women are too assertive in Australia. The jaws of most of the country could be heard hitting the floor. The conservatives are coming to terms with a fall in female membership. I wonder why?
Twisted junkie motherfuckers with delusions of grandeur will either have the most mind blowing sex, or tear each other’s throats out. Sometimes they do both
My hunch is that this is real. They've already gone far more brutal than they would need to. Some people say that Trump has already talked to Bondi & Patel about controlling Musk through the legal system. We'll see but I think this is going to be a volcano.
Yes! That's what I thought too when I saw that. That he is admitting that he stole, rigged, bought off election officials? or just hacked it. I sure took it to mean he did SOMETHING to steal it. They need to do an autopsy on it. Or another election. It is not fair to have this till 2029.
Yes, he did. In an interview with Tucker Carlson on election night. They were talking about PA. ( I vote in PA ). I could not believe nobody ever talked about it.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be as underhanded as hacking or bribery. Elon poured millions into the election and used his platform to promote Trump. Technically not illegal (well some of it was…) but it should have been.
Maybe. It's hard to think he would care even a tiny bit if it was illegal though. He has 0.0 morals, integrity, etc. Machiavellian. Ruthless. We'll probably never know the truth unless he gets so drug-addled he spills the beans or someone snitches. Just pouring the huge $ in SHOULD be illegal though
It probably does make a difference that Musk made so many enemies bc of how annoying & obnoxious he was since he arrived at the WH. A lot of ppl disliked him but Bannon seems to hate him. And Miller probably also hates him if it is true that Musk stole his wife.
Yes! The rumor is they were a throuple & Katie Miller picked Musk. She definitely left the WH when he did & is working for him in TX (I believe) now. This mentions it. Miller sounds SO INSANE in this, he could be Hitler reincarnated. Just nuts.
I doubt it, too. But Lev Parnas did say Trump did a meeting with Bondi & Patel yesterday to talk about his options re Musk. He thinks Trump will try a 'full take down.' IDK much about Parnas & can't vouch for him but that's what he said.
It was in this. https://substack.com/@levparnas?r=lb27z&utm_medium=ios
Yeah IDK if it's correct. He does know Trump well though so maybe so. We'll never know unless Trump actually does something. He did send Parnas & the other guy & Cohen to prison so who knows what he might do.
I've not been this optimistic in 7 months. I want to see flames that end really badly. And that they're doing it to themselves is just the chef's kiss. The MAGA cult will wet themselves trying to figure out who to worship.
I don’t think he thinks about the consequences of his actions regarding his stock. He took over Twitter and made it a haven for people who hated electric cars and the environment. Then he sided with Trump who vowed to kill incentives to EV and push fossil fuel use.
He's been a colossal failure as a businessman, but the whole reason he's breaking with trump is because his companies are imploding... The removal of the incentives is a big part of that. Otherwise he'd still be firing our nuclear safety officers.
Trump's "votes" only account for 20% of the population, making it atleast 80%.
Adding to that, the obvious vote manipulation found in the swing states (so far), we can summize that more likely 85-90% of the country is cheering on this fight of dipshits.

Not upset my friend. Was just curious.
I am actually a big AOC fan and would love for her to run for the US Senate seat in NY.
I find her refreshing, smart and shes gorgeous.
Like that word corny. Haven’t used it for ages.
Thanks for your input.
No…the men are fighting bc they are overly emotional n ego driven for power n greed…ya know PATRIARCHY stuff! I get the expression & thought behind the comment- I think I said it too, but then thought 💭 why do I think that? It’s not women that start wars!!
You can obviously not find humor here but homophobic/mysoginist? I feel like this is where we get ourselves mad over the wrong thing. I'm straight/male so I don't have that lived experience, but I feel like this is more of a "wish she said that differently" rather than whacking her over the head.
My only question is: How will the Democratic Party still manage to squander this massive political opportunity opened up by idiotic Musk and Dump? Will the Democrats even go up in the polls?
We are only four and a half months into his term. But you are right about it feeling like an eternity. Hopefully he gets impeached by 2027 and we can see the end of him in power.
If he stays in power until 2027 our Democracy WILL ALREADY be GONE and we'll be a full blown DICTATORSHIP which means the END of FREE & FAIR elections! He needs to be REMOVED NOW!
Maybe so but he's getting there! He's already implemented about 40% of Project 2025 in just 5 months! Hitler came into power by passing laws that GAVE HIM the POWER just like Trump is doing! You have to remember Trump is NOT NORMAL, he "thinks" he's a KING & that EVERYONE will fear him!
Yep, and that was AFTER Muskrat aligned with HIM! I have NO DOUBT they made a Quid Pro Quo deal, Musk makes sure he wins & Musk gets DOGE to go WILD with! They weren't even friends before Musk saw a way to get the POWER he CRAVED along with MORE BILLIONS!
They’re trying to start that now, which is a huge mistake. We don’t have the votes and even if we did Vance is worse than Trump! And Johnson worse still.
Too late by then. He’s an old doddering fool who is unfit. Less tolerance and acceptance now. We had no trouble beating the crap out of a real president for far less. And he was working his ass off to save ys from ourselves.
That's one thing Musk ISN'T lying about! Trump WOULD NOT be in power if Musk hadn't helped him by RIGGING the ELECTION! Musk doesn't spend $277 million on a "hope", he MADE SURE it happened! They weren't even friends before Musk saw a way to USE Trump to get POWER & MORE MONEY!
If we don't demand to see the Epstein files, then we support child rape in America. #NowOrNever. Who are we/they trying to protect? The children or bad men and women?
Josh is a professional and has thus probably pointed out that the similarity stops when we ask which one performed WAP, because neither has ever been anywhere near a woman autolubricating due to arousal.
If you can't handle Dems and anyone else that hates this regime - making fun of them in a way that will surely get under their skin - you need to flat out go fuck yourself and then go cry elsewhere.
Or you can keep focusing on people on your side while redcoats continue to hoard power. smh
Can you people just do some research before running your mouths? The saying is a reference to a video Azalea Banks made making fun of Nicki Minaj for fighting with every other female rapper. In this case, Trump is Nicki because he fights with everybody in his group. It is a popular gif.
Keep rationalizing. The fact is AOC is employing a sexist trope. And the meme created by the singers is rotted in the sexist trope. There is no wit in internalized misogyny.
If I said, “oh wow not another white man saying something that doesn’t even come close to the point as a mask to casually infuse homophobia into his nonsensical rebuttal!”
…you’d get that, right?
I can say “you’ve mixed in a little bigotry in with those begonias” and you’d get that, right? 🌱

So do you. And we are upset about the same thing. I am upset because you don't understand the reference and you are upset because you don't understand the reference.
I love AOC and this doesn't change how I feel about her or her stand on issues- but the joke is still playing on misogyny and the meme is as well. I am confused about why people think that because someone made a misogynistic meme/video that it is now fine to repeat it. It is what it is.
Hmmm, the use of “girl” here reads more like the way gay men use it to refer to each other. It’s a term of endearment or of inclusivity, even. “The girls” are your friends. Your buddies. Those buddies.
My “hmmm” conveys my curiosity about the possibility of misogyny. If anyone has an explanation of how AOC’s comment is misogynistic and how its reference is misogynistic I’m genuinely curious.
It seems that she’s using irony. There’s the trope that women can’t govern because they are too emotional. She’s turning it around on them… brilliantly.
Having XX chromosomes, the last thing she wants to do is slur her sisters. She worked too hard to get where she is to do that.
Right? Don't you love all the men in the comments, mansplaining to women that misogyny is actually funny now, because someone made a meme out of it? 🙄 Plus- I can love and support AOC *and* still criticize her choice of phrase, because I am complicated like that.
Men always talk about women too but look at who started majority of the wars and most times or at least recently it is all over egos. They are so emotional and now spilling all of the tea with extra #petty.
Now, like children in between two battling, narcissistic, divorcing parents, will be traumatized further than we already are & w need therapy & meds as democracy crumbles upon our tiny heads as dad & dad battle it out in media
Yes! Everything is publicly documented by each other's mean tweeting, crime spree! They just need to bring in an illegal AG Bondi to investigate the investigators! 🤷
It’s based on a millennia old stereotype. I reject it as funny because it’s based in misogyny.
I’m aware of the misogynist meme. Also aware of all the trump sucks Putin. Also homophobic. Change yr language and attitudes. Embrace feminism and queer liberation in jokes.
Thank you for saying this. I get the humour and the purpose of getting under their skin, but the statement makes me very uncomfortable. Meme or not it perpetuates sexist assumptions.
You don’t have to agree with my acceptance of certain language as funny or sarcastic, but it doesn’t make you righteous and right or me evil and wrong. This is honestly a curious thing to be outraged about. Block me if you wish, I won’t show up in your feed laughing at things that make you mad.

In my experience… girls don’t fight like that. At least the ones I’ve known.
I do like AOC a lot.
Smart, quick and beautiful.. she should run for senate in NY.
Just sit back, relax and enjoy.

Why compare nazis fighting to girls and gays? It’s only funny if girls and gays are unreliable, weak, catty and always fighting.

Calling a man “a girl” as an insult is a form of misogyny.
Using sarcasm to reference a pop-culture meme to point out how emotionally unhinged two sexist pricks actually are, is wit.
The two are not the same. Why? Nuance.
Is it pop culture to say, for example, “the fags are fighting” and not expect any comments?
I can say “the children are fighting” and you’d get that, right?
…you’d get that, right?
I can say “you’ve mixed in a little bigotry in with those begonias” and you’d get that, right? 🌱
