In this instance that AOC described it was disrespectful.Her latest was to call out Joe Manchin for referring to her as "young lady".
She's a lady. And she's young.
She said he wouldn't want her to call him old man.
Of course. Calling old people old is disrespectful in our culture. Calling people young is not disrespectful.
The term was used with a condescending intent. It was not used with respect for her. It was used to imply exactly what you want it to do - implying that she is incompetent to understand why Manchin opposes the legislation.You don't go up to a person with dwarfism and say "I just want you to know that you're very short". That would hurt his /her feelings.
Nobody's feelings are hurt when being called young.
And you want to help the Democratic Party???AOC doesn't help the Democratic Party.
