The always well-reasoned and thoughtful AOC, after being caught eating maskless on vacation with her boyfriend, gave this scholarly observation.


"If Republicans are mad they can't date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend's feet," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted in response. "Ya creepy weirdos."
"It's starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women, & LGBT+ people in general," she added. "These people clearly need therapy, won't do it, and use politics as their outlet instead. It's really weird."
Yep, we can all rest easy knowing that people like her are running the ole country.

Do you eat while wearing your mask, JL? Bet you've lost a ton of weight! And yes, my fellow Republicans are fixated. We need to resurrect Freud.

I thought it was her response that was strange. "AOC was not wearing a mask." Her reply was on the order of, "Oh yeah, well just take a look at the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women, & LGBT+ people in general!!" It was just a strange response. And to think they're all mad because they can't date her? Talk about a self-centered narcissist. Wow.

I think your comment about, "my frllow Republicans" was perhaps a Freudian slip? An appeal to Freud goes astray over a spelling error. Hmmm.

You do realize that Freud and his ideas are largely discredited?

Yep, time to call...hmm...Carl Jung or maybe Carl Rogers? I'll pick up your tab.

I'm a bit busy messaging with someone who's talking suicide. I have now corrected that typo.

He's still a big deal in the world of psychology. I've used several of his counseling techniques.

Like I said, he is largely discredited. "In subsequent years, Freud’s theories — on everything from homosexuality to gender to human development — have largely been discredited by psychologists. As Psychological Science wrote, '[T]here is literally nothing to be said, scientifically or therapeutically, to the advantage of the entire Freudian system or any of its component dogmas.'"

"...it is the case that Freud’s developmental theory has been widely dismissed among psychologists, since there is no proof that the id, ego, or superego exists, or any evidence that affirms that humans develop through oral, anal, phallic, and genital stages."

AOC's response is a lot more understandable than MTG hollering about a right wing divorce, and people moving from Cali, and NY to Fla. not being able to vote during a cooling off period. Don't get more loony than that.

"...it is the case that Freud’s developmental theory has been widely dismissed among psychologists, since there is no proof that the id, ego, or superego exists, or any evidence that affirms that humans develop through oral, anal, phallic, and genital stages."
Maybe someday if you have children, you'll understand and agree with Freud. I certainly do. Of course, one has to understand exactly what he was saying, not fall into some popular mishmash of his ideas. Some of his thinking, by the way, goes along with Biblical teachings.

I’ve had three children. Freud has been discredited except, of course, in your opinion. I’ll stick with the article I linked, otherwise known as documentation.

I imagine Hitler had a few views that coincided with the Bible as did Stalin. They were madmen. Freud was a deceived atheist.

I have no idea what you’re talking about concerning Florida voting. If it was up to me, I’d confine all Californians to that state until they sorted out the outrageous mess they caused. Perhaps they would learn something…perhaps.

And you have referred to and mentioned tidbits of Freud's psychological terminology many times over the years.

And you're not curious?

As the old saying goes, even a broken clock is right twice a day. At any rate, I doubt I've made much reference to Freud. I'm not big on most psychiatry. I've never it seen it accomplish much.

Curious about what? Freud? I'm familiar with Freud. Not wildly familiar, but familiar enough to know that he is no longer taken seriously.

You ever refer to ego? Believe we each have one?

'Ego" in the sense of personal pride and self importance (Which is how I and nearly everyone else uses it.) and "ego" in the sense Freud used it are not the same.

Tell me. How did Freud use it?

I thought you said you knew about Freud? Sure doesn't sound that way.

Which one of the three is Freud's concept of "ego"?

You're the one claiming the over-the-top knowledge of Freud. I want to know all the inaccuracies you believe and misunderstandings you have.

And you use CARTOONS as proof of your superior knowledge?

Your lack of answers is an indication of something. Wonder what? Oh well, just to satisfy you, Freud's concept of the ego is that part of the nonconscious self that exercises judgment and makes decisions, having to balance the demands of the indulgent Id and the super moral Super Ego.

Did you learn something? I hope so. Perhaps you will reply by telling all of us how you know all about Freud and that my understanding is completely wrong. Just beware that I can document my views.

You copied that, didn't you.

I spent three years in grad school learning about Freud et. al.

Copied? Nope. But I'm honored that you felt my answer sounded scholarly enough to be in an article that could be copied. Wow!! Now did I just cook it up off the top of my head? No. I did a little research, but I knew already that Freud's use of "ego" did not match yours.

I'm glad you went to grad school. I'm not glad you misused "ego" in post 11.

someone needs a shrink All Out Crazy believes that Republicans actually want to listen to her blathering for hours on end. She thinks someone who disagrees with her wants to get in her pants .

Maybe she can apologize for attacking Ron DeSantis for being MIA when in fact he travelled with his wife while his wife got cancer treatment .

It really is bizarre that any criticism of her becomes, in her view, a display of sexual interest.

I did a little research

I'm glad you went to grad school. I'm not glad you misused "ego" in post 11.
Just like you criticize me...research sources often suck, don't they.

Sorry, Charlie. Not misused.

Just the usual. You’re right because you say so. It won’t get you any farther this time than usual. Always afraid to just say you were wrong. Sad.

You're describing yourself.

Like I said. Sad.

AOC has nothing on the terrorist right wing noise machine.

Can you be specific? You will note that no one here has made reference to a, "terrorist left wing noise machine." A specific person's specific statement has been posted. I encourage everyone else to do the same.

I stand by my written statement as written and if you had been paying attention then you wouldn't need specifics from me.

That would make the answer, “No.”. Oh well.

Jumping on AOC and ignoring the dufus and his racist supporters and sychophant butt kissers and media maga mouthpieces is a a no no. Oh well! Specific enough for discussion without a link?

Except, as I have noted several times, I didn't ignore Trump. But I am specific with my objections. That's valuable.

I don't object to AOC as one of 435. I object vigorously and specifically to the dufus and a few loony repubs. The dufus having a big mouth is not very specific.

I haven’t noticed any specifics from the liberal side.

Where have you been for the last 4 years?

"Haven't you noticed all the specifics I have no ability to be specific about?"

Perhaps there is justice in the world after all. "AOC tests positive for COVID-19 after partying in Miami maskless. The positive test comes shortly after the congresswoman was seen without a mask in a Miami bar, according to video that circulated on social media." She has been vaxxed and "boostered", evidently to no avail.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/aoc-tests-positive-for-covid-19-after-partying-in-miami-maskless

She should spend less time away from her constituents ,in red states ,during a pandemic crisis ,trying to date conservatives .

I still plan on nominating her for bizarre tweet of the year. "It’s starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women,& LGBT+ people in general. These people clearly need therapy, won’t do it, and use politics as their outlet instead. It’s really weird."

Earth to AOC. If you want to see "really weird," then just look at your own tweet.

She sees all political opposition to her as a sexual assault.

She sees all political opposition to her as a sexual assault.
What ARE the reasons for political opposition to her?

We could start here.


If implemented her Green New Deal would be a catastrophe. It is a form of milquetoast communism — it calls for “Medicare-for-all,” a single-payer government-run health care system; it demands the federal government provide a job (at a “living wage”) for every adult; it insists the government provide a basic income (welfare) to any individual, even those “unwilling to work”; it champions free college and universal public pre-k education; it wants to ban all meat consumption; it mandates the end of all fossil fuels within ten years to combat “climate change”; it dictates that 99 percent of all gas-powered cars, SUVs and trucks be taken off the road; it demands a ban on all airplane travel by 2030; it aims to outlaw nuclear power; and it seeks to retrofit every building and home in the U.S. so they can be “energy-efficient.” AOC proposes that America becomes completely powered by clean, renewable energy resulting in “zero carbon emissions,” primarily through alternatives such as wind and solar.
And this miracle transformation must take place within a decade. Why? Because AOC claims there’s a “scientific consensus” that, unless drastic action is taken, the planet has only 12 years before it is destroyed by climate change. She says it is her generation’s “World War II” — a life-death struggle against the forces of darkness. Call it the coming green apocalypse.

We could start here.

And if we don't, we die.

Well, we didn't. So you are on record as saying we are going to die in the near future?

You do realize that AOC's idiotic claim that there was scientific consensus that we only had 12 years before life would be over is completely wrong and agreed on by basically no one? It's a laughable claim that only a totally uninformed person would make.

Well, we didn't. So you are on record as saying we are going to die in the near future?
Yep. Climate change, global warming, melting glaciers, covid, more shootings/killings by very confused and unhappy people, absence of love and caring.

You do realize that AOC's idiotic claim that there was scientific consensus that we only had 12 years before life would be over is completely wrong and agreed on by basically no one? It's a laughable claim that only a totally uninformed person would make.
I'd say fewer than twelve.

Yep. Climate change, global warming, melting glaciers, covid, more shootings/killings by very confused and unhappy people, absence of love and caring.As is your custom, you are mixing issues.


I'd say fewer than twelve.That makes you even more uninformed that AOC. That's a description you really don't want.

We are killing ourselves and each other.

I'm not. I would say without reservation that the sum of my life has been to preserve lives. Quite frankly, I would say the same of you if it wasn't for you unwavering support of pols who support abortion. Those 900K unborn children need to be included in your calculations.

...if it wasn't for you unwavering support of pols who support abortion. Those 900K unborn children need to be included in your calculations.
And this was stated where about pols supporting abortion?

You voted for the Biden/Harris ticket. You are supporting AOC here. You have had your chances to take a principled stand against abortion here and passed on it. Nuff said.

I don't support AOC. I do agree with much of what she says. Plus, she's very pretty.
