AOC: Country ‘on a Precipice’ of Fascism, Return to Jim Crow

Wednesday on MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, self-proclaimed socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) spoke favorably of Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer’s decision to retire at the end of the court’s term.

“[T]here’s no way of saying what’s actually in Justice Breyer’s mind,” AOC said. “But I do believe that the urgency of this moment — the fact that the country is very clearly on a precipice of fascism and a return to Jim Crow, the sweeping attack on voting rights in this country and the very real threat of seeing what happened with the consequences of Ruth Bader Ginsburg passing during the Trump presidency — that we could very well risk something like that happening again. And if that was part of his calculation, I think he was correct in his conclusion.”

If the country is on the verge of fascism, it’s a Democrat fascism. It is Democrats who champion censorship, cancel culture, and violence against their political opponents. It is Democrats who have unleashed the violent shock troops of Antifa and Black Lives Matter to wreak havoc and fear in the streets of America. It is Democrats who have weaponized the IRS, the FBI, and Big Pharma against average American citizens who don’t fall in line with the Democrat agenda. Democrats are the fascists in America today.

If the country is on the verge of losing voting rights, it’s because of Democrats demonizing election integrity legislation as “voter suppression.” The only thing the GOP is trying to suppress is widespread voter fraud, which Democrats fiercely support because they know they can’t win elections anymore without it.

As for a return to Jim Crow: it was Democrats who were responsible for Jim Crow laws, and they’re 100% responsible for the racial animosity, division, and return to segregation in America today.

If AOC is opposed to fascism and racism, and wants to defend voter rights, she needs to become Republican.

Defending Critical Race Theory

During a July 19, 2021 interview on CNN’s Don Lemon Tonight, Ocasio-Cortez spoke in defense of the teaching of Critical Race Theory in America’s public schools: “Why don’t you want our schools to teach anti-racism? Why don’t Republicans want their kids to know the tradition of anti-racism in the United States? Why are Republicans trying to ban books in this country? Why are Republicans trying to ban speech? Why are they trying to fire certain professors? Why are they attacking the core roots of history in this country that strays anything beyond what we already know? Why don’t Republicans want us to learn how to not be racist? Why don’t Republicans want kids to know how to not be racist?”

The congresswoman continued: “Republicans are using these words like Critical Race Theory, which again is a law school curriculum that is not even taught in schools. Their argument is well, some teachers may be exposed to it. Oh, wow, so your child’s teacher is anti-racist and actually fluent in how to dismantle racism in the dynamics of racism in a classroom. That is something that teachers should know how to do. Republicans are trying to ban this. They are trying to ban us from knowing our own history. Because if we don’t know our own history, then it is easier for them to curtail our rights to vote and take us backward to the 1960s as they have been doing with many state laws.”

Ocasio-Cortez also “the Republican base and party” of having “pivoted to using race and using the changing demographics of this country and as we saw on January 6, using a white supremacist core logic in order to reanimate a very core fear of the other in this country.”
