Why is conservative media obsessed with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Nitpick: It may be asking too much for Dopers to spell voilà with its accent grave, but unless you post about stringed-instrument music please configure your spell-checkers to reject Viola. :smiley:

Oh my. It is AOC’s terse diction on which you hang your case? :smack: Words fail me … in this forum. Report to the Pit if you need to know why your train of thought is not entirely reasonable.

I’ve no idea whether DrDeth is a right-winger, left-winger or centrist… (Can we get a Grease Monkey script to tag posters?) But I’ve learned to ignore posts at SDMB which mention “economics” unless the poster is … an economist! For example

At the time of this post, I went through a list of Nobel-prize winning economists and stopped when I couldn’t find a single one who did NOT support basic income! I will bet three gallons of cheap red wine that the next time a right-winger writes the equivalent of “I’m not inclined to provide a basic introduction to Econ 101” he’s supporting an argument that suggests he’s never taken Econ 101! :slight_smile:
