‘You can’t make this up’: AOC plays victim wearing ‘Tax the Rich’ gown at swanky Met Gala, but no mask
September 14, 2021 | Tom Tillison

Acting like the belle of the ball, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was all the rage Monday night when the self-avowed democratic socialist showed up on the red carpet at the star-studded Met Gala in New York City.

The lawmaker’s appearance and attire were a walking contradiction, as she rocked a dress rumored to cost $10,000 at an event where tickets started at $30,000, according to the Associated Press. The dress was emblazoned with the message, “Tax the Rich.”

Never mind that the politician who claims to be fighting for the working class was right at home mixing and mingling with the most affluent people in the city.

The full Versailles: Met Gala ruling class pour on the hypocrisy -- led by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
By Monica Showalter

In the decrepit, doddering Joe Biden era, the odor of decay, decadence and borrowed glory from the entitled ruling class is the order of the day based on what was seen at last night's Met Gala, "the party of the year" according to the New York Times.

Nobody embodied that better than Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who wore a custom-designed white evening gown graffitied with 'Tax the Rich' in red spray paint on the back of it, just perfect for an event brimming with the superrich. She knows they like that 'beat me, beat me' vibe.

Here she is preening and showing it off for the cameras, every inch the center of attention:

What is the clearest and best articulation of the view that AOC has done something hypocritical or wrong by attending the Met gala in a "tax the rich" dress?

She didn't do anything wrong. She did everything right. She displayed for everyone once again that her "tax the rich" routine is not blue collar populism but elite-celebrated, blue-check-cheered, radical chic shtick.

I have to admit, my favorite part about the Met Ball was how only the "help" wore masks (both vaccines and masks were required, from what I've read). Apparently, the 'rona is a-skeered of rich people.

If you could tax hypocrisy, these people could pay down our national debt.

Besides, they don't want to tax the rich. They want to tax the productive.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

AOC Defends: It’s My ‘Responsibility’ To Party With Elites, ‘Haters’

Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) tried to defend herself online after she was swarmed with criticism for wearing an emblazoned “Tax the Rich” dress to the Met Gala, where tables could reportedly cost more than $275,000 and individual tickets are priced at around $30,000.

AOC scolded “haters” about the criticism and contended that going to the fancy event with rich elites was actually her just doing her job as a congresswoman in New York City.

“And before haters get wild flying off the handle, New York elected officials are routinely invited to and attend the Met due to our responsibilities in overseeing and supporting the city’s cultural institutions for the public,” the representative wrote via Twitter. “I was one of several in attendance in this evening.”

In the same Twitter thread, Ocasio-Cortez rationalized that the “medium is the message” and emphasized that her designer is a “Black woman immigrant designer.” ...

You can't cap that well. The pressure is too great to keep all that stupid in.
