You have to do stupid PR stunts every once in a while, because its not like anyone who doesn't like AOC cares about her actual policies.

I know people will say "BUT SHE'S AT A RICH PERSON EVENT!"...One, most of the people there have money, but they're not the super wealthy who she's speaking of...2...who cares? even if she was at dinner with Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Jeff Bezos...She still wants to tax them more. Even if she has as much money as them...she's still advocating taxing herself more.

Its not a gotcha.

Yes? She makes 175K a year, that's peanuts compared to the mega-wealthy but still she is willing to pay higher taxes herself.

Not sure how you guys think that is some trump card you play on her. Yes, she wants to raise taxes, even if it means on herself.

Meanwhile that dress probably costs ten grand or more. Kind of loses any meaning showing up in a dress that 99% of Americans can't afford to an event designed to cater to the wealthy so they can show off how much wealth they have.

What? none of that disputes what i said. Its a lot of rich celebrities getting together. If she is one of those super rich celebrities she is fine with taxing herself higher. There is a huge difference between actor money and the top 1% money...i'm not sure why you thought that was a "gotcha" too...Nothing here is a gotcha. She's putting her money where her mouth is. She wants higher taxes on the rich even if it means herself and the people she schmoozes with are affected. I'm still not seeing how that's a "gotcha".

A lot of people on social media complaining about her attendance and the cost of the dress.

Designers and fashion labels pay to be at the gala and then they invite the famous people to wear their clothing.

I heard the rich pay themselves $1 or a ridiculously low amount through their company and everything they buy it goes through their company as a company expense. And there are laws or whatever that are very favorable to companies in terms of taxes right? So if they tax 100% for the rich and they pay themselves $1 they'd just pay $1 tax

Sure it is.

At the very least, it would show they dont even believe the shit theyre saying. Limousine Liberals do not have to wait for taxes. They could give away their wealth, which they believe is the product of systemic oppression and undeserved privilege anyway. They could stop supporting big corporations and other super elites, by not accepting their donations. But they wont do that.

What actors? Do you think AOC is an actor? Do you think this is the Emmys or something? This is a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. It's the most exclusive social event in the world. It's literally made for the top 1%.

That is really fucking cringy. Like, not only is it ugly(which doesn't help that she isn't exactly easy on the eyes) it shows a juvenile level of politicking. Like, I'm sure her simps will love her forever but if you actually want to claim to be a politician or progressive, you don't do the opposite of what you are supposed to do. You need these people if you really wanna make change and yet, she is just spitting in their faces. She's just too immature for this level of governing.
