Apparently, NOT saying something means you said it.
Yes. Implying that you didn't vote for something because only Neo Nazis would do that, does mean saying that all progressives who voted for it are Neo Nazis.
So if a Black person votes for something, all who vote for it are Black?
AOC says that progressives (including those who voted for the amendment) are welcoming Neo Nazis this is very clear cut.
Wut??
AOC is saying she didn't vote for the bill because it was a bill by/for Neo-Nazis. But Omar, Tlaib, etc. voted in favor of it. Therefore, she's saying those people are Neo-Nazis.
It's really simple, there's no need to bring in a different analogy
The vote being referenced was a doomed amendment vote by MTG (who stated she was upset about a Catholic church getting hit, not expressing any concern for Palestinians), and specifically not referencing the military funding bill itself. AOC, and all the other people mentioned here, voted against the actual bill itself. AOC literally voted against funding Israel.
When maga says Dems are pedos, if they don't specifically except Trump, Gabbard, RFKjr, then they're pedos....or did they used to be, but not now?
