and there's a name for this.



It is called the Streisand effect

The more leftists cry and try to censor, the more people want to find out what they want to censor, and just end up working against them.

That's true, but social media is making that possible. Case in point, if the msm and social media had not censored the Biden-China corruption scandal, would he have won the election? I doubt it.

Irrational cancel culture.

Apparently if anyone points her many mistakes on policy, spending, or statistics she claims she's a victim of racism and sexism..



She has a lot of growing up to do.

She is totally ignorant of issues from the Middle East to $21 trillion missing from the defense budget, to everybody working two or three jobs. She makes things up out of thin air and the msm doesn't hold that ignorant lying fool's feet to the fire.

AOC is a fucking idiot...But just imagine how dumb the voters of her district are...It's fucking scary knowing how many dangerously stupid people are out there. But that's typical of mellenials and the Gen Z kids...No life experience beyond their 24/7 connection to the internet yet they think they know everything. These indoctrinated morons are the future...ain't that just great... :nea:

Succeeding as only she can, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won an honorary "employee of the month" award from Goya Foods — by calling for a boycott.



At a White House event in July, CEO Bob Unanue praised President Trump as a "builder." That prompted ex-Housing Secretary Julian Castro to call for a boycott of the Hispanic-owned food giant that hires mostly Hispanic employees.



But the big noise came when AOC tweeted out support for slapping Goya — and the company saw sales jump 1,000 percent.



Hence Unanue's ironic honors for the congresswoman, which he revealed on "The Michael Berry Show" this week. The CEO also called Ocasio-Cortez "naïve" for claiming to support the Hispanic community but advocating for socialist policies like the Green New Deal that would kill countless working-class jobs.



By contrast, that White House event promoted Trump's Hispanic Prosperity Initiative, which dedicates taxpayer support to improving Hispanic access to private and charter schools.



It's hard to fault Unanue for arguing that AOC is the one who's really going "against people of her own Latin culture."

For the first time in her life, AOC has received recognition for her work.
