    Agreed. Seems like a party for rich bells to me.

    It has pissed off one of my muslim pals this morning to be fair, not suggesting she speaks on behalf of the entire female muslim population though. She has criticised the double standards at play and shared something on her instagram story:

    She upsets a lot more people than that mate. Obviously that 'side' can't stand her, but some of her perceived double standards and far leaning left views do upset Democrats as well. She's also, as you say, loved by a lot of people too. Just one of those politicians who splits opinion either way with not many people in the middle saying 'meh'. Not a bad position to be in.

    For what it's worth, I'm not sure wearing a 'Tax the Rich dress when you've been 'donated' a $60,000 pair of tickets really works. Especially when you're not wearing a mask and have people wearing masks carrying your dress as you get in to a luxury car to go for a luxury meal. It doesn't scream being 'one of us' like she so often claims.

    Having family and friends who live in the USA, and have done for decades, Ben, I'm well aware of the feelings generated towards AOC and the backgrounds of her critics.

    Never said you didn't mate. Just pointing out those feelings aren't universal to just one 'group' of people, which is also fair.

    You know, as well as I do, who the vast majority of her critics are and their usual political stance.

    A majority, but just like with Jeremy Corbyn not exclusively to one political persuasion. Lots of people in the centre of politics too.

    I know and I also know where the vast majority of her critics come from, politically. If I decide to criticise AOC's critics, I'll do so.

    Yes, you're only allowed to say "tax the rich" if you're shouting it whilst dressed in a hessian sack on a street corner.

    For me people can dress how they like. I think some of em look like complete nobs and some dont. I just wish I had the amount of money that would enable me to go to an event like that. I dont need to spend a lot of money on my clothes as I always look like a nob no matter what I wear.

    Grimes (Elon Musk's partner) came with a medieval sword made out of an AR-15 rifle!
