Jesus, she went in. I haven't seen someone throw this much ether at the complacency of the GOP before. She really doesn't give a fuck if what she says is taboo.

Lay me in the river of fire if old.

You can see why the GOP are terrified of her. Speeches like those could help with youth turnout at polls in the future.

These are the assholes that make sure Amazon and Apple pay zero effective tax rates, then feign sympathy for the "poors" climate action would effect

AOC rightly bodyslammed that grifter.

I just watched a bit of this on mute, and her gesticulation game is totally out of control.

When AOC becomes old enough to run for President, there will be reckoning. She will have all TV time to herself, guaranteeing a win.

But guys, what we really should be caring about right now is falling in love, getting married and having kids.

I almost feel bad for her. She has to deal with a bunch of morons who won't listen to a word she says.

That was fantastic. It's so refreshing to have someone who can speak clearly and make issues like this understandable for everyone.

What an inspiring woman. Meanwhile the fossils in government give zero fucks because they’ve got one foot in the grave and a pocket full of oil money.

Was going to ask how much longer we have to wait until she turns 35 but she mentioned she turns 30 this year in the video lol. Nice to see that kind of passion on a common sense issue that is literally affecting people's health today.

My only wish is that AOC were older, so she could run. It'll be great for her to get lots of experience and political capital, but on the other hand, Fox and the Republican party now has 9 years minimum to build up slander and bullshit.

God I love her. I didn’t realize she was 29. Figured she was just as old if not a couple years older than me.

Hope she stays on fire

The cost of doing nothing will be essentially insurmountable and loss of habitable land will become an inevitability. The real elites with all their wealth and influence will simply moves higher and/or inwards.

But as with all great changes, no one will hear AOC now. The people in power will dawdle like the entitled, unscientific and corrupt cunts that they are. These changes will come after great losses in life and resources. I mean, you know that climate change is a giant issue when oil companies are asking for governments to protect their infrastructure.

So yea, I look forward to all the unwilling sacrificial lambs who will serve as the crucible for change.

Meanwhile on the other end ...

What is going on here?

Congressman did a presentation in Congress that claimed the solution to global warming is falling in love, getting married, and having kids.

The GOP are the worst and clearly low hanging fruit on the insanity meter. but i wish she would also highlight the fossils in her own party also shitting on the GND as well more often with far better but still blatantly transparent excuses. Its less partisan politics and more the influence of money that has everything stalled and that goes beyond party. She knows this clearly.

This is not a critique aimed soley at AOC, but all progressives who participate in Democratic party circles. Contextualize the real fight wer're having on these issues as institutional issues within our broken poltiical system rather than intraparty politics.

Finally, a politician who actually tells it like it is. The endgame for no response to climate change is basically human annihilation. It really does not matter what it costs because if we don’t pay for it there won’t be a future to worry about.

This walking troglodyte said that all of our issues will be solved by nuclear families and having more babies.
I thought the first responder was joking and was about tell him off but given the independent corroboration... umm.. what!? What the fuck!??!

O yeah, If AOC is spitting hellfire she is raising global temperatures with all that fire. Does she really even care about global warming? Checkmate liberals!

She'd be I think three years too young. She couldn't run until 2028 at the earliest.
She'll be 35 just one month prior to the 2024 election so I think she'd technically qualify as it probably is only a requirement for the actual time of inauguration. At the very least she could probably be a VP as there are no set requirements there, only the assumption that a VP must technically meet the requirements of the President in case they take over.

She'd be 35 by election day. Not quite sure if US laws allow a person to be a candidate before that age, however. Sounds possible to me but I don't know enough about these laws to be sure.

Edit: according to wikipedia you just have to be 35 before you take office so she's in the clear.

My personal speculation is that SE thinks PC piracy will cannibalize sales of the upcoming Switch/XB1 ports
That doesn't make any sense, but that's the only reason I can think of, not sure why else DRM would be added now

This proves I suck at math at the very least, lmao.

But if the rule is that you only have to be 35 at the time of inauguration, then hell yeah she should run.

You can’t get through to people who actively want to profit off of the world burning down. Obligatory, fuck the GOP, and fuck conservatives in every corner of this planet. Also, a special fuck you goes out to the weak spinned centralist and leftist parties who don’t have the balls to talk to these idiots the way AOC just did. Fucking get in their faces and shout at them if need be. What’s civility in the face of catastrophic global environmental change?
