Well, how would you define it then?

look at the policies that sanders and cortez are proposing.
and then compare to Trotsky,or Bolshevik.

totally different.

they are not trying to have government take over every means of production.they are seeking to expand a few social programs.
think FDR.
now we can disagree with those policies.
some may be of the mind that every service should be privatized,and others may think that the government has a different role,and should utilize resources to provide certain,basic services.

and that is where the real debate lies.
not in some hyperbolic "we are turning communist!" drama queen garbage.

we need to keep that debate honest and not give demagogues aa platform to spew their utter bullshit.

Well considering the Green New Deal bans airplanes, meat eating, cars and who knows what else? Sounds pretty dictatorial to me. Stalin and many other communist leaders started out doing things similar to this. Since AOC has flat out said regarding the subject “I’m the boss” it seems she is determined to have it her way or the highway. She has also called capitalism irredeemable. Sounds pretty clear cut to me. A Gallup poll recently showed her favorability ratings were in the toilet...and for good reason.

What did I get wrong? I believe that was in the Green New Deal. Flat out in a readable language. I read it. All of the news media, including CNN, have pointed it out. This isn’t just a “Faux” News thing. What am I missing? I know what I have read and seen.

because if you did you wouldn't be repeating the tropes that the corporate media has been espousing.

you would be aware of the 10-20 year plan to slowly,and gradually,phase out:reliance on fossil fuels,slowly transfer to electric vehicles.
address the biggest offender of climate change producers:big agro,and how to create a system to make it a net-zero equation.(there is where the "cow farts" rhetoric came from).

no mention of getting rid of air travel,but it does address that we need new,and cleaner,fuel for planes.(considering that jet fuel is one component away from rocket fuel,no easy task).

you would be aware of the massive infrastructure plan,again to be implemented gradually,to address our aging and inefficient power grid,leaking pipelines,and the destructive and eco-unfriendly practice of fracking.

it is still a non-binding proposal.
but considering that American media outlets number in the 1,000's and yet are owned by only 6 corporations.

that might explain why you have the opinion that you have at the moment.

it may be time to change the channel.

I also forgot about the proposal to gut every building in America and rebuild them. How is that possible? We can’t go door to door and round up illegal aliens they say but the government can go door to door and tear down every single building in America.

Look, I keep an open mind to the possibility that climate change is real and I would be fine with some green proposals, but you have to agree that AOC isn’t the brightest bulb in the socket. That isn’t the corporate media it is her in her words. Okay she graduated from Boston University. Donald Trump and George W. Bush graduated from ivy-league universities and liberals call them dumb all of the time. AOC makes authoritarian statements like “I’m the boss” and flat out did call capitalism “irredeemable.” Bernie Sanders did even have his first job as an adult until he was 40 after living on some hippy commune much of his life. He was once heavily involved in a socialist party that called for Soviet-style government control. Sanders is on record praising bread lines and Cuba. Even some Democrats, such as Pelosi has criticized AOC and her Green Deal proposal. I mean let’s be reasonable here. AOC’s has been rated more unfavorably than favorably in Gallup polls. Here unfavorable ratings have gone up since she was nominated last year...which may I add she only won by a 10% turnout. Democrats like Joe Lieberman were trying to prod her primary challenger to run as an independent.

no,i really don't have to agree.
because I am a free-thinking individual,and do my own leg work.

I get that you don't like her,and you have your reasons.
I can respect that,but I am not you.
