You know, I’m sick of people saying AOC is the far left version of Elon, or more often, the left’s Marjorie Taylor Greene. Bullshit. AOC is more left of center than most in Congress but if you follow her, she’s mostly earnest (especially for a pol) and she does the work. Even when I disagree with her, I find her to be considerate and intellectually honest. She’s not the left’s Elon, MTG or Boebert, she’s far, far better.
Please, Elon’s companies rely on so much establishment money in the US, the establishment’s control over its population in China, etc.. He’s as establishment as it gets. Just has a veneer of anti-establishment that, checks notes, leans right / authoritarian.
Does AOC own her own jet? If not, you're just trying really hard to make two things that are not the same, the same in your mind. The rest of us are looking at each other with raised eyebrows intimating "what's this about?"
There are multiple issues here and people can be upset about some while not being upset about all of them. Musk specifically Saif he would not ban the account that reports on his jets location. He then changed his mind and the account was banned. Journalists reported the ban and were themselves banned for their reporting.
Personally, while I think banning the jet location account is hypocritical I don't have a serious problem with it. I do have a problem with banning journalists reporting on the ban.
