Ocasio-Cortez lies about her lie

AOC told an audience that we have 12 years to fix Climate Change or the world is going to end.  Her audience didn't laugh or give any sign that they thought she was being humorous.

But now she's telling us that it was just a joke:

This is a technique of the GOP, to take dry humor + sarcasm literally and “fact check” it.

Like the “world ending in 12 years” thing, you’d have to have the social intelligence of a sea sponge to think it’s literal.

But the GOP is basically Dwight from The Office so who knows. https://t.co/pmkwrdeAnq

She's now lying about her original lie in order to appear to be less ill informed than she really is.

This is in line with her distancing herself from the Green New Deal which demanded that lower middle class Black families tax payments be used to ensure that people who could work but who didn't want to work had a nice lifestyle.

Remember that AOC is the face of the Democrat party today. She's the one that the fascist leftists in the Democrat base love.
