That great big DNC tent is imploding... it appears a POTUS candidate needs to be more than a "cool" gay mayor.
Democrat Pete Buttigieg is confronted at a town hall on a white police officer who killed a black man. [He] just stares with a blank look on his face... https://twitter.com/RealSaavedra/status/...41/video/1

Ocasio-Cortez Refuses Invite To Visit Concentration Camps With Holocaust Survivor...
It's important to note AOC was not invited to visit the Nazi concentration camps Steve King, but was encouraged to accept the offer from the Holocaust remembrance group.Â
Quote:.@AOC I went to Auschwitz & Birkenau with Eddie Mausberg & Jonny Daniels with In the Depths. I went with a deep understanding of the Shoah and had a profound personal experience. Please accept their offer. https://t.co/9tjqgdP6N5 — Steve King (@SteveKingIA) June 23, 2019
Quote:The last time you went on this trip it was reported that you also met w/ fringe Austrian neo-Nazi groups to talk shop.
So Iâ€m going to have to decline your invite. But thank you for revealing to all how transparently the far-right manipulates these moments for political gain. https://t.co/TQkaPEESoD — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) June 23, 2019

There is a real difference between a Nazi concentration camp and the Nazi death camps. The latter were in Poland, the large ones anyway, and the aim there was simply to kill people as fast as possible. Various concentration camps were in Germany and other countries and held political dissidents and whoever else the Nazis didn't like but didn't intend to kill right away by poisoning etc.
The camps overrun by the Allies were the former. The Soviets overran the latter.

awww....look at Somenole defending AOC. Not many people have the stones to do that.
Kudos Some....even if the bravery is short sighted and misplaced.

The camps overrun by the Allies were the former. The Soviets overran the latter. They also worked them to death, they died of exposure and malnutrition, or died of disease in overcrowded camps with no medical resources.

The main difference between concentration camps, where prisoners of various nationalities were incarcerated, and extermination centers (Auschwitz, Treblinka, Sobibor, Belzec, Kulmhof, Majdanek), where nearly all the victims were Jewish, was in the first place the annihilation method, while the final goal – the physical elimination of the victims – remained the same (both Auschwitz and Majdanek were “atypical†extermination centers since they were organizationally and spatially combined with concentration camps under the same names). Concentration camps used as the main annihilation method hunger combined with physical exhaustion. The death of prisoners was also accelerated by other conditions of existence in the camps: the lack of proper clothes, rest and medical care, poor sanitary conditions, as well as insufficient living conditions. Unlike the victims of the extermination centers killed immediately upon their arrival in the gas chambers, the prisoners of concentration camps stayed there for shorter or longer periods (some of them managed to survive the war).Â
Concentration camps, being an alternative to mass executions, were a tool for the physical elimination and served at the same time the cause of disguising the crimes committed there. Since they formally, by name and organizational structure, referred to pre-war camps, where Hitlerâ€s opponents were isolated, their denomination related, as it were, to a concept to some extent familiar to the public in Germany and other countries.Â

Dachau was a work camp. Populated by enemies of the state. But a work/forced labor camp

It's as close as I've come to seeing anyone do it, other than Omar and the other co-freshman rep.....so I attributed the difference between what you did and true support.

Pointing out your hypocritical musing is the opposite of whining. Mr. Third Person.

Here in the zig nut house, I†m not surprised. She has her fans in the real world. It†s the mini trump syndrome, Dems seem to like her, partially, because she likes to poke at idiotic things that elected pubs say and do.
