Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as soon as stormed Nancy Pelosi’s workplace, however now attends $ 30,000-a-ticket balls in assertion attire and weeps over $ 1 billion for Israel. She’d be simpler on Instagram, than in Congress.

New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is among the United States’ Congress’ most well-known members. She has thousands and thousands of followers throughout her many social media platforms, and is reviled and liked in virtually equal elements throughout America. 

These days this obvious darling of the left has been within the information a bit of greater than ordinary for 2 spectacular items of political theater. First, she attended the unique and movie star mobbed Met Gala in New York carrying a gown with the message ‘Tax the Wealthy’ written throughout the again. Then, in additional severe if presumably superficial information, she was filmed weeping tears onto the Home ground after altering her vote from ‘no’ to ‘current’ in regard to at least one billion of funding for Israel’s ‘Iron Dome’ safety system.

There may be nothing mistaken with political theater per se – folks in Latin America have skilled a number of the most dramatic political drama, whereas on the identical time experiencing file development and social inclusion. The distinction between AOC’s political theater and that of, say, Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez or Argentina’s Eva Perón, is that AOC has little or no to indicate for her congressional profession in addition to all the grandstanding, and never simply because she is constantly ranked one of the vital ineffective congresspeople.

Many individuals involved with human rights abuses by Israel, in the USA and internationally, had been irritated by AOC’s cowardice in altering her vote in opposition to extra funding for the Iron Dome system. We’ve got to ask ourselves why our authorities feels the necessity to write yet one more examine for Israel for $ 1 billion, in the meantime thousands and thousands of individuals in the USA discover themselves in ever extra precarious situations of poverty and social distress. 

If 9 different congressional democrats may vote in opposition to it, why couldn’t she? Maybe she has larger political ambitions that she feels a ‘no’ vote may jeopardize? Maybe Home Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened to major her or reduce funding to her marketing campaign? It isn’t clear, and the 4 web page observe that AOC wrote in protection of her vote solely left folks extra confused than enlightened, and that’s in all probability precisely what the NY congresswoman wished. 

The Press TV journalist (and RT contributor) Richard Medhurst bought it proper when he wrote on Twitter that, “Omar, Presley and many others voted ‘no’ to fund Iron Dome, whereas AOC switched from ‘no’ to ‘current’. In July they did the precise reverse: Omar, Presley and many others voted sure to present Israel unconditional help, whereas AOC, Tlaib voted ‘no’. See what’s happening right here? It is a recreation.”

‘Obscenely out of contact’: AOC stirs controversy with statement-making ‘Tax the Wealthy’ outfit at annual Met Gala occasion

It might appear that the inconsistency of AOC and her allies actually does give credence to the argument that one thing cynical is happening behind the scenes. It’s additionally essential to notice that the $ 1 billion examine for Israel handed with 420 votes in favor and 9 in opposition to, so even when AOC was genuinely involved in regards to the invoice not passing, she clearly had nothing to fret about and was free to vote the way it appears her constituents – and her conscience, maybe – wished her to vote. However no, she didn’t have the braveness to take action and disenchanted a lot of her personal constituents who despatched her to Washington, DC in addition to folks internationally. Had been the tears crocodile ones or real? Or these of a clown?

When a fellow congresswoman, Tulsi Gabbard, made the selection to vote current on articles of impeachment in opposition to Donald Trump, AOC didn’t maintain again; “Right now was very consequential, and to not take a stand a technique or one other, on a day of such nice consequence to this nation, I believe is kind of tough. At any time when now we have a vote, we must always vote ‘sure’ and we must always vote ‘no.’” It’s exhausting to think about the place this AOC is, maybe she is locked away in Pelosi’s basement, or that of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

When AOC was pictured in her ‘Tax the Wealthy’ gown on the Met Gala, I assumed many individuals on either side had been considering an excessive amount of into it…it’s only a gown! Then I noticed the photographs of protesters exterior being hauled away injured or in handcuffs. To actually put issues into perspective, let’s take a look at the information. AOC will get paid $ 174,000 a yr as a member of Congress; her constituents little question despatched her there to be a little bit of a feather ruffler; she kicked out a 10-term incumbent whereas working on a left-of-center platform. One in every of her first newsworthy actions was staging a protest at Nancy Pelosi’s workplace over local weather change! 

Whereas being paid this massive wage to ‘symbolize’ one of many United States’ poorest districts, AOC was invited to attend the Met Gala, one of many world’s most unique and costly occasions with a single ticket costing $ 30,000 , based on Newsweek. Whereas the star studded occasion went on with AOC inside, exterior quite a few protesters asking for a reappropriation of the NYPD’s $ 11 billion finances had been being whisked away to jail.

Raging for the Machine: AOC’s ‘Tax the Wealthy’ gown isn’t a scandal. It’s enterprise as ordinary for Revolution, Inc.

Herein lies a basic downside with present political discourse in the USA. Whereas AOC schmoozed with the extremely rich and concurrently bought some factors on her ‘woke’ card and good footage to submit on Insta, folks taking to the streets and demanding social change had been arrested. 

Regardless of what number of $ 10,000 greenback attire with political statements any individual wears, irrespective of what number of tears any individual sheds as they vote ‘current’, and irrespective of what number of $ 30,000 ticket occasions they attend, it’s all simply efficiency. So-called progressive politics has by and enormous turn into superficial, floor stage, and toothless, due to co-option by the political and financial institution. Issues want to vary, and quick.
