https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/aoc-to-anti-trans-swimmer-riley-gaines>Different Democrats speak about transgender people in very different ways. Some rely on vague gestures and political hedging—defending trans rights only when it’s convenient, and discarding them when it’s not. Others speak with conviction, choosing to lead with values of inclusion and solidarity for the most vulnerable. On Monday, after appearing at a packed rally alongside progressive New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made clear which camp she belongs to. When anti-trans swimmer Riley Gaines—who infamously turned a fifth-place finish into a national crusade against transgender athletes—tried to bait her online by saying that they were responsible for “destroying |America| within,” AOC shot back: “Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.”>The post, made on Elon Musk’s Twitter platform, was viewed more than 36 million times and sparked an avalanche of conservative outrage. “Where Riley ended up is not the point…” wrote former tennis star and outspoken anti-trans activist Martina Navratilova. Daily Caller journalist Meg Brock responded with a bizarre insult comparing AOC to a stripper. Riley Gaines herself appeared on Fox News to demand a debate with the congresswoman over “socialism… removing God… and child sacrifice.” AOC replied once more: “And I would like to challenge this person to get a real job.”
Why didn't she call her "spiritually fat"?
>>41499796america, where even losers can make a grift off being trash.
>>41499932aoc isn't a loser you toxic asshole
>>41500190I think they're referring to Riley Gaines
>>41499796Ok, but AOC removed the pronouns from her Twitter account, so...Everyone is waking up from trans lunacy and it's glorious.
>>41500298yeah probably because a trans person told her pronouns are fucking stupid and we don't give a shit about virtue signaling with them. It's a very promising direction.
>>41499796kek not bad, I hope more libs start getting a bit more aggressive with their rhetoric
She removed them in Mid-November right after the election results were announced. Her excuse was "for space reasons."kek
>>41500276how is that a grift
>>41500473she lost and is making a political career off being a loser. she is literally paid to cry about trannies because she sucked paint chips and is a failed athlete.
>>41500498and she's winning, don't forget that part.
>>41499796>Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbk4zQttKyE
>>41500498Simple as
>>41499796>“Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.”sides left for mars
>>41500666winning what?>>41500791yup, losers need their trophies too.
>>41500821The trans sport debate.
>>41500834there isnt a debate lol. theres freaking out on one side and nigh stoicism on the other.cope more
>>41500852I wouldn't say the right wing are really that stoic. I agree with the trannies freaking out though.
>>41500852Au contraire, mon faggot. There is a debate, and it is about whether trans identified individuals should be allowed to compete against members of the opposite sex or not. Riley is in the "not" camp, and they are winning so much it's not even a contest.
>>41500935if theyre winning so much why do they need to threaten schools funding to get their way lol?thats like the final thing they can even do? seems to me theyve lose up to that point and may even fail at that point too because liberal endowments and donations dwarf conservative ones.
>>41500951Because their competitors don't want them there.Their peers don't want them there.They are being forced in by liberal white boomer activists.
>>41500461Hi I am trans and I don't want cis people to tell me their pronouns or ask me my pronouns. Its cringe and retarded and was always a product of cis women HR managers implementing forced globohomo policies that weren't intended to benefit anyone. Hope that helps.
>>41500190Both of them are losers. AOC is gonna flop harder than Kamala in any primary.
>>41500975liberal white boomers who paid for the facilities and donate millions to the school? geee i wonder why they might get what they want.......
>>41501037Yes.Those boomers are dying out and passing off their old money to potential donors that don't care about a 35 year old gay man's opinion on whether a 12 year old boy should have to look older
>>41501066what are you talking about?are you off your meds? when did this turn into something about gay men and 12 year olds???
>>41500985Did you miss the part where she said it was "for space reasons" only? She already used a different excuse bro, you can't misinterpret it as a win for trannies! kekThe rats are jumping ship, simple as.
>>41501020She needs to lean into SPH since she is already going for the cuckolding and emasculation segment
>>41500498ok but why are they not allowing "trans" "genders" to compete in women's swimming or women's olympics anymore? it seems weird to say she failed because that implies she was wrong about women's sports
>>41500951well transgenders can't compete in the upcoming Olympics against women so there's that too
>>41501186Based.They shouldn't be allowed in cis people's grocery stores either
>>41501337>and call you cislmao rightoids are literal crybabies
>>41501453From one cis person to another, it's fine.We can deal with this together.
>>41501474based that someone finally recognizes me as cis enby on here>>41501337obligatory>"," is optional>capitalization is random>children´sbonus keks>insurance customerseternal state of the american
>>41501337>it is my heckin right to have specific spaces while constantly invading ones originally made for men>my child is my heckin property and cannot have thoughts or beliefs of its own until idk it turns 30 or something then it might mildly disagree>this tiny group existing and making its own words to describe itself is ERASING LANGUAGE>taxpayer "cosmetic" surgery i like good, taxpayer "cosmetic" surgery i dont like bad>you don't get it i need zero consequences for being a piece of shit to someone's face on purpose or i am literally hecking censored for le smallest things>a hint of rainbow might turn my kid DEMONIC OH GOD>oh uh i need to put in something about le lesbians fearing the dick too or somethingpurely christcuck schizofrenia
>>41501538Cis female of course :)Pretty much the same as an enby though.All women are nuts.
>>41501136Hi, thanks for the reply.I actually think it's reasonable and prudent to give a short non answer to a question that doesn't benefit you to answer as a politician. I don't need her to give a full explanation of why she deleted the pronouns, we all know its forced cringe and a product of corporate liberalism and doesn't reflect anything about trans people.
>>41500298What's a pronoun? Is that when a noun decides to make a career out of it?
>>41501770
>>41499796basedstop tolerating faith
>>41501781Hey look it's a gay clown, just like me
>>41500298That was an entire pronouns feature on Twitter that Elon Musk removed for everyone as an option
>>41501781crap art but i get your point gaybro
>>41500190she is and so are you
>>41501136Feels like weird cope. She btfoed some conservative "muh trans sports" whiner and some words removed from her bio are supposed to be more reflective somehow. I don't think that's an opinion you actually hold. Maybe you're mad?
>>41501818>but doctor, i am PaGLEacci
>>41501868>waaah>No U
>>41499796>>41500190Why are you signal-boosting this? AOC doesn't care about the trans community. She will code-switch her language and farm outrage at the snap of her finger if it means people cheer her, and in a world where people love being outraged, she knows how to do it best. Go watch a fucking YouTubers on Twitter and pop some more ADHD meds if you need this level of bullshit
>>41500190>Elon Musk is a loser, but AOC isn't.This is why no one takes you losers seriously anymore. Doesn't help AOC shit on men below 6ft, most men are below 6ft.
>>41503127I LOVE AOC.I'm an absolute asshole at the best of times and she taught me that, not only is it OK to body shame people, it is actually encouraged to do so to an audience of millions!ESPECIALLY for immutable characteristics.
>>41499796AOC is hot. But, Trump is hotter. So I will be voting for him for a third term.
>>41500834
>>41499796>AOC shot back: “Maybe if you channeled all this anger into swimming faster you wouldn’t have come in fifth.”total socialist victory
>>41503155>>41503127Holy shit you people are pathetic. AOC body shamed someone waaaaaaaahIncel snowflake pathetic losers
>>41505302I don't mind body-shaming, racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia. But, I draw the line at hypocrisy.
>>41505300I fixed your gif, bro. Now there's no awkward pause.
>>41505300Here's one with two pauses that feels more natural.
>>41500898>seething
