“Does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez know the horror of socialism? My father was minutes from demise in Cambodia, earlier than a pressured marriage saved his life,” says the narrator, revealed to be Republican activist Elizabeth Heng. “That’s socialism. Pressured obedience, hunger. Mine is a face of freedom. My pores and skin just isn’t white, I’m not outrageous, racist, nor socialist. I’m a Republican.”

“Republicans are working TV advertisements setting photos of me on hearth to persuade individuals they aren’t racist,” Ocasio-Cortez, also referred to as AOC, tweeted in response. “Life is bizarre!”

“Are you actually calling me racist, AOC?” Heng shot again. “I’m calling all Democrats out for supporting an evil ideology.”

Not Republicans. Me. Are you actually calling me a racist @aoc? I’m calling all Democrats out for supporting an evil ideology. Or are you simply in Congress to hang around with celebrities and tweet out ridiculous concepts just like the inexperienced new deal? https://t.co/w985LYjIZd

Even the previous US ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul chimed in, with a take that Pol Pot’s regime wasn’t actual socialism.

Actually disillusioned in ABC for working this advert. And as somebody who has been educating comparative politics for 30 years, Pol Pot's tyrannical regime had nothing to do with "socialism." https://t.co/PWEyTHmAnj
