AOC back with her fake photo op acting again..

Are you saying it is all a lie or just exaggerated?

I'll take her word on her personal sexual assault, but she's too eager for photo ops and using such things to push agendas not related with her trauma.

Most victims don't do it that way, which is why I consider her to be a professional propagandist.

Yes, you don't get politicians having photo opportunities.:rolleyes:

Due to the amount of stigma a person faces for sexual assualt and how common it is to be blamed for it or accused of faking I would be very reluctant to accuse anyone of lying about it even tho it happens sometimes....far more often statistically tho it's more likely that the person is telling the truth. It seems it would do more harm than good to accuse her of lying especially if she isn't. Not without hard evidence.

So, are you saying she's lying? I've thrice seen what she said, and I don't see what you seem to see, especially since she struck me as trying to control her emotions on this.

So, why don't you believe her? Uncertainty I can see and agree with myself, but you've gone well beyond that. Do you know any women who've been sexually assaulted? I certainly have.

On top of this, the bigger issue is the simple fact that the Capitol was invaded with armed insurrectionists and that many in both parties were worried for their lives-- and rightfully so. But all I see you doing with this is to just play some near complete unempathetic political game. Can't you even go to the point of maybe giving her the benefit of the doubt even if you do have some reservations? Or it just playing partisan politics the only thing you're really concerned with?

She intended by posing for the photo op using her trauma as a tool so It looks like any legit critique is all over sexual assault making a critical opinion look like its against the assault itself. Silence the criticism huh? The enture thing is plain and simple.

The facts remain.

She was not sexually assaulted, and she was not at the Capital making this yet another a propaganda event with her. She was an opportunist to make an unrelated event turn into into something it was not.

She did it before.

How many traumitized people do that?

Ehh... There's not really much for me to contribute to the discussion.

We all have our own horrors we've had to deal with in life, but the burdens made manifest in the aftermath of a sexual assault was never mine to bear.

What I do know, though, is that everyone deals with the trauma they've had to endure in different ways. There is no proper way to deal with it; there's only the way that seems to work best for us on an individual level. That can range from talking about it in a public setting and drudging it out into the light of day for all to see, to sitting at home and quietly trying to get one's life together. There are many ways to heal.

Whatever way people deal with their trauma, I hope they do so in a way that is healthy for themselves. If it ends up being a healthy influence for others, that's good too.

Yea but its not about sexual assault.


Its supposed to be over her lies and her obsession with staged photo ops in regards to the Capitol assault.

She was not sexually assaulted here.

I hope A.O.C. becomes our president in 2028, and sometime later afterwards her portrait will be placed on lots of U.S.currency.
Only in a Socialist Marxist regime.

I'm sure she would love to pose for it.

Thats the entire point of the thread. She uses emotion as a propaganda tool and makes sure someone takes a picture of her and sees to it that it gets released to the public.
Glad you found this funny @The Hammer.

She actually did this. Loves having people take photos of herself as she's traumatized.

And yet, here we are talking about sexual assault.

I've dealt with my own issues for years with dissociation and intellectual dishonesty. I learned how to break out of that behavior, and I learned instead how to confront and deal with my issues; one of the steps for me was to bring it out into the light. My friends and family learned things about me that I would have taken to the grave.

If she uses a photo op to talk about her trauma, she's in a position to do it. Some people need to face their demons publicly. Ultimately, It's not really for me to say.

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt until they prove me wrong, though. What has she done to prove herself wrong to you?

Propaganda. To draw attention. What else?

What would the goal of the propaganda be? As for drawing attention.. it appears likely that the GOP will let trump off the hook, again. If there ever was something to draw attention to, it would be the GOP's flagrant disregard for the Constitution.

I say let's all keep drawing attention to this!!

BTW. I'm on post traumatic medications since my heart attack and I don't use it as leverage to make unrelated comparisons and pose for camara shots. I'm no stranger to trauma either during my military or civilian life as I've experienced quite a bit thank you very much.

Funny how your experience with trauma does not appear to have left you with a clue about the kind of trauma the survivor of a sexual assault is likely to experience.

Must be some pretty effective meds you're on, if that's the actual reason here.

I could say worse than I said, and still be speaking the truth.
