ALEXANDRIA OCASIO CORTEZ SAYS U.S. ‘NOT AN ADVANCED SOCIETY’ AT BERNIE SANDERS RALLY: ‘IT IS FASCISM’
New York Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez railed against the idea of the United States is an “advanced society,” saying that we’ve evolved into a fascist state that only benefits its richest members.
Ocasio-Cortez was speaking at a Venice, California, campaign rally for Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders Monday as she expressed contempt for the frequent claim that the U.S. is the world’s wealthiest, most advanced country. Several raucous crowd members chimed in and yelled that U.S.culture is actually reflective of right-wing “fascism” and that the wealthiest people are simply using the country’s vast resources to enrich themselves.
