Alexandra Ocasio Cortez Amazon buying

[Orthodoxjay1]

Amazon opponent Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent thousands on the site during campaign

Another episode of Do as I say, not as I do hypocrisy.

I don't recall her calling for a boycott of Amazon, so where are you seeing Do as I say, not as I do?

AOC buying something on Amazon is pretty far down on my list of need-to-knows.

Where did she call for a boycott of Amazon? And who the heck is going through her shopping records?

This is getting pathological folks.

The obsession is strong with this thread:

She never called for a boycott

They're losing their obsessions with Hillary and moving onto the next thing.

I like this part:

The Amazon shopping spree by the Bronx-born congresswoman’s campaign is less than a fraction of the $1.7 million spent overall.

They want to knock her for spending a lot of money at Amazon, and knock her for spending a lot of money on her campaign, so they're forced into pointing out that in relative terms, she didn't spend much at Amazon at all. LOL

But to the thread at large, she didn't even say anything bad about Amazon, she just said we shouldn't pander to huge corporations with enormous tax breaks. I'm sure she'd be happy to host Amazon's headquarters if they paid the same tax rate as everyone else in their bracket.

I'm always bummed when i see these threads that say "AOC" because I think in my head either "Armenian Orthodox Church" or "Antiochian Orthodox Church", and those are things I'd rather talk about then the shopping habits of some lady who is on a lot of people's minds who I hadn't heard of before a week or two ago. Meh.

Certain personality types are drawn to black and white thinking. Oppose a particularly bad business deal? Why, if you're not then opposed to everything the company does then you're a hypocrite.

Luckily there are people who can see that this isn't how reality works.

Not enough.

Too many people are suckers for this kind of stuff. Whats that quote?...."nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people".

Are they going through her shopping records, or do they just see the boxes as they go through her garbage?
