Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Refuses Invitation to Visit Auschwitz Concentration Camp

Right, some group invites her some place and she probably suspects that they're doing it for political reasons, and she rejects.

And all of a sudden you're like "she's ignorant".

Sorry, you don't need to go to Auschwitz to understand the Holocaust.

You don't need to go to Auschwitz to know that the right in Israel like to make out the Holocaust only involved Jews either.

You don't need to go to Auschwitz to understand that some of Israel's right wing government's policies are a little barbaric either.

She displayed her total ignorance about the Holocaust.

Some folks who know the history offered to help educate her.

She, being the dimwit she is... declined.

This is about O-Cortez. The dimwitted Westchester girl.

You don’t have to go to Auschwitz, Dachau, Bergen-Belsen, or Mauthausen to understand the horrors. But you do have to have some education on the subject. O-Cortez displayed her massive and majestic ignorance.

Perhaps she should pick up the books Man’s Search for Meaning and Ordinary Men.

O-Cortez... such a big mouth vomiting so much idiocy.

That's a nice offer. I've toured there and learned a lot about the Holocaust. But why did they invite AOC? I don't remember her making comments about the Holocaust. Is she a Holocaust denier or something?

Give google a try.

You think the Jews were migrants? Oh boy.. :)

Well technically the Jews were expelled from Israel by the Romans following several failed rebellions, so calling them migrants isn't exactly accurate, but there are some similarities.

This is a typical problem for the Left. They just cannot face reality, as it kills their idiotic world view.

Instead they prefer to remain ignorant... and... my oh my this O-Cortez a model of ignorance and stupidity. And she seemingly loves to show it off!!!

I think AOC is familiar with what happened at Auschwitz.

As a Jew, I disagree with how several Jewish groups have responded to AOC's comments. The whole point behind "never again" should never have referred only to an extermination of solely Jewish people under specific, Nazi circumstances, but to never repeat the kind of history that leads to such situations in the first place.

LMFAO Cortez isn't dimwitted. The US ICE holding facilities fit the definition of concentration camps. Maybe you're just mad that she's right?

LOL as you post dumb **** void of any intelligence LOL Why the hell would she go to Auchwitz? Then you'd wine how she is wasting taxpayer money.

God damn, right wingers are pathetic

Dude. Two posts and you've convinced me not to bother with any more of your crap!

For the most part you just have to see "conservative" as political leaning if they display it and you know you should't bother, you won't get much for most of them but idiotic deflections and one liners because they have no facts

That was priceless, thank you.
 
KevinKohler said:
That should have been her move. Accept the invitation and go. Then, a week later, issue an invitation to that group to go to our detention centers.

Of course...she may not like what she finds...children playing with other children, being fed 3 squares a day, medical care, beds, etc.

Which detention center might that be?
Oh wait...

They're mad because there's no ovens in the detention centers yet.
 
She probably doesn't feel the need to go because other groups and historians have defended her. I'm not sure if it really hurts her politically. Steve King of all people tried to invite her as well.
 
Weird how a member of the governmental body that can actually change and improve the law that led to the mess on the border, appears to be unwilling to influence that change. Unless she thinks she can score more political points with her crass comparison, and that’s more important to her than actual change.

She never said anything anti-Jewish. I think you're confusing her with some of the right wing NAZIs who March under the Trump banner and run down peaceful protesters.

Thank you for your opinion.

*****

That individual disrespected the Jewish people, the mentally challenged, the political dissidents, the gays, the Jehovah Witnesses, et al. who were tortured or murdered in those
actual concentration camps, which should NEVER, EVER be compared to any other kind of facility.

That individual should beg for forgiveness, but she is so full of herself (thanks to the shameless media) that she is allowed to say any nonsense that she wants and her "fans" swoon. I hear that some pro-Trump strategists hope that she keeps bloviating until election day.

She called illegal alien detention centers "concentration camps". It's obvious the stupid bitch doesn't get it.
 
NoC_T said:
They're both jokes. Horse Face for being the unwitting, unqualified, simpleton of a pawn she is, and the Jewish lobbies for jealously scrambling to deflect from the slightest insinuation that theirs wasn't the only holocuast of any historical relevance. So now they're demanding that she re-align herself with the established (read as 'demanded') narrative.
Click to expand...

You mean how the left is always scrambling to try and spin any words of Trump to make him look bad? I think when your ancestors are brutally taken from their homes and killed the way Jews were that you can deflect insinuations that aren't true and correct them.
 
She does not need to go to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp to become enlightened, all she has to do is right in her own backyard, The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in DC. She won't, it would take a effort that would prove even to her how wrong her comparisons are.

What's comical about the whole thing is everyone is referring to "concentration camps" as the Nazi variety being the standard definition, which it isn't.
 
The invitation was reactionary to try and prove a point. It wasn't about genuine education. Why would any politician kowtow to such a baiting "gotcha" request?

Also, for those of us who have actually visited the site or others like it (like Tuol Sleung in Cambodia), it's creepy AF and not for the faint of heart. You don't just visit those places to prove a point, you visit them to immerse yourself in the energy of horror and annihilation. I know lots of people who have had the chance but said no.

LOL. AOC is nothing but political 24/7.

The only thing this story does is rally those who are already politically opposed to AOC.

And it will continue - for the good. The right is going to hang socialism over the necks of all Democratic candidates. But, that's what AOC wants because she believes it furthers her cause. So, she keeps on hand delivering bullets to the other side to use against her. She's a stupid moron.

Actually, it is the standard definition. When one talks about concentration camps, this is what people think of. There's a reason why that is. And don't give me any crapola definition from Webster. You talk concentration camps, people know what you are referring to. AOC and others and purely disgusting to make the comparison. Victims of the Holocaust would be turning over in their graves. Funny how the left jumps all over Biden for bringing up people from the other side who he has worked with over the years and call him racist and insensitive but, comparing immigration detention to facilities to concentration camps? No, that's not insensitive at all.
