Whilst we should be fighting Zionism, let's not celebrate MTG, as she did this likely because of geniune antisemitism as opposed to a concern for Palestinians. Remember the Jewish Space Laser thing.

Can you show me the Jewish Space Lasers part of the bill?

Social media is full of these half baked justifications like the ones you've responding to here makes it clear that aoc actions are just as uncritically accepted as any of her fellow Democrats as they continue supporting the genocide.
