Speaking of crying wolf. As if we needed more proof that SlackWit is a concern troll:

> [@Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (her brilliant retort to Yoho)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-her-brilliant-retort-to-yoho/916220/70):
>
> Yoho is a massive tool, and I’m glad she called out his weak non-apology and in particular the canard these types always pull out: “I have a wife and/or other female relatives, so I can’t possibly treat women poorly”. But I cringed right out of my shoes when AOC said she was glad her dad died young, and strongly implied that she kind of wished her mom were already dead as well. grimacing Awkward!

Fuck off, **SlackWit** , you disingenuous sack of shit.
