Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Well, you know what?

You're damn well right that it's a democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from identifying dangerous chemicals that are being dumped and causing cancer in people without their knowledge.

You're damn right that it's a democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing.

and mortgages and rent.

And you're damn right that it's a democratic priority to raise the minimum wage in this country, to allow people to get a fair shot at the American dream.

If they want to say that that's a democratic priority, they're right.

And they are targeting all of us with this.

And so I do think it's important for us to remember that and that these priorities are actually not partisan at all.

when they talk about Republicans and their success online, they have been successful because they have also been very clear, especially digitally, about what they believe, that women are inferior, and they do not deserve equal rights, that they believe that LGBTQ Americans are subhuman, that they believe and are circulating disgusting racial,

and white supremacist messaging that they are able to get away with digitally and online.

And they are able to radicalize and target and exploit a generation of young boys in particular

away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

And that is why they are resonating online, because they are appealing to the most basest and worst parts of human nature to divide us.

And why to divide us?

So that the same people who own those platforms, people like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg,

that these people can continue to get away with highway robbery in tax cuts and in order to fleece all of our pockets, cut our healthcare, keep our wages low so that we remain fighting amongst ourselves while they make themselves richer.

And so in order for us to fight back against that, we must be clear about what we believe, have strong beliefs,

and also be completely unwilling to bow to that kind of division and stand in solidarity with one another, especially when it is someone whose culture is different from ours or whose background we may not entirely understand, but that we honor, love, and see as our fellow Americans.

On what?

on the healthcare.
