Net-zero emissions/reach 100% of energy requirement from renewables != eliminating fossil fuels/limiting what you can drive

Why?

She's the only one actually telling us what she wants. I'll give her credit for that.

The rest of the Dems try to hide the fact that they want the same thing, not because it's good for the country, but because it gives them more power.

The problem is that weak & spineless Republicans will eventually sign off on whatever the left wants today.

In five years, the Left will shame the GOPe into signing off on some trillion dollar rail boondoggle. In ten years, they'll support banning coal. In fifteen years, they'll support a fed takeover of agriculture & banning of the beef industry.

If we had an actual opposition party, it would be easy to sit back & laugh at this new breed of communists, but deep down we know the Republicans will do nothing to stop them.

AOC doesnt scare me; it's the feckless Republicans.

Don’t be concerned because it isn’t communism.

You should be worried. In one of the few times that I agreed with Glenn Beck, he was still on Fox in the afternoon shows,he stated that what the left is doing now is "nudging" the US to the left. If the "nudge" doesn't work, it becomes a "shove". If the "shove" doesn't work, it becomes group violence(antifa). If THAT doesn't work, they will use the barrel of a gun.

We are in the antifa stage now.

Correct. Successful Communism might actually have a better chance of coming to fruition.

It's not communism, but implementing the GND would require a federal takeover of the energy, education, aviation, agriculture, construction, housing, automobile, & rail industries.

No, definitely not communism.

Don't forget healthcare under the auspice of medicare for all.

What will happen to all of the health insurance jobs lost? Would the health care CEO's stay on and work for Fannie Mae and get paid a STFU bonus? Probably but all other jobs gone. With it running like a low scale sham wow site online like O Care did.

I say the democrats and most of the GOPe try this before they frick us all up and the world. (If America goes down like Venezuela-- so does the world.) There are very wealthy people that want nothing but billionaires and eating tree bark and out of dumpsters-no in between. It is why the working class have been ignored for years.

It concerns me to from time to time, but we have to remember.... Trump is the first one in a hundred years that actually did what he said he would while campaigning.
The politicians are lying.
Even if they scream about doing something, once they go in their chambers to write and vote, they screw it up.

Not because of competency, but intent.

There will be no free stuff, no gun confiscations, no cow bans, no retrofitting of buildings, no high speed rail.

Doesn't that make more sense?

But just in case: Against all enemies, foreign and domestic!

You rightys should venture out of your echo chamber more often and read something other than the alt-right propaganda machine.

33 of the 40 GOP seats that Democrats picked up in the house in 2018 were won by candidates who had been endorsed by the moderate NewDem PAC, which was formed in 1997.

Try to overcome the natural paranoia that afflicts most conservatives.

Yes dumbass, they had to lie about what they really stood for to get elected. Now they are paying the price for not toeing the line with every EXTREME RADICAL vote. The "moderates" are on borrowed time in the Neo-Communist Party (Democratic Party). It is great to see and I hope the commies can purge the fraudulent "moderates" from the party and show their true beliefs.

Try to overcome the brainwashing / indoctrination that "afflicts most progressives".

Hey dipwad, we know Nance got the gavel back from PA moderates. She recently ordered them to all fall in the AOC line; or AOC will put their names on a list to the commie billionaire and they will lose campaign monies.

So Pelosi used them for power; and you can take your communism progressive apologist crap and GFY.
