listen to her speech compared to, say, marjorie green, and how she approaches things passionately and logically with facts to back it up is night and day.
it’s also a reminder of how marjorie greene is everything to the republicans that they tried to claim aoc would be to the democrats. instead, aoc has become one of the most passionate, analytical, and policy wonk driven politicians in congress.
I always thought it was hilarious how they’d complain that Democrats (especially coastal Democrats) are all “ivory tower elites”, and then mock her for working as a bartender and imply that made her unfit for office.
They don’t use words to try to find or describe truth. They use words for effect. If saying (or believing) A gets what they want today, and Not-A gets it tomorrow, they will happily switch without any hesitation. Sometimes without any awareness.
We all are at risk of doing this. But the Republicans have it turned up to 11.
And because of that, on some fundamental level, they are bad people.

Cognitive dissonance. The goal never was to be understood. Just to create chaos.
