WASHINGTON, D.C.—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came out hard against the Electoral College, slamming the institution as a racist scam that makes white people’s votes count for “like, a lot more” than other people’s votes.
But she then thought of a good solution: “What if we count all white people as three-fifths of a person instead of a full person? Then, good votes would count more than bad, racist votes. Like, four or five times more or something, because 3/5ths is only like 10% of a real vote.”
She then paused as she counted on her fingers and double-checked her math on her toes. “Yeah, it adds up. Case closed. This makes the program contain 247% fewer racisms.”
It was pointed out to her that this was racist, but she said that when you fight racism with other racism, it makes less racism. “1 bad racism plus 1 good racism equals zero racisms,” she said confidently.
At publishing time, Ocasio-Cortez had slammed the Electoral College as sexist after learning it doesn’t even have a gender studies program.

Wow everyone must sleep in on Sunday.
The satirical article is closer to the way AOC thinks than it lets on and therefore is approaching real news. She actually in her fourth grade mentality offered her reasoning for removing the electoral college because, like, there are farmers everywhere and like, the rest are urban and like, they both still get to vote, so, like, what’s the problem?
The movie “Idiocracy” realized in your lifetime.
ocasio is a major symptom of the disease & we need to take her seriously instead of mocking her–
i wonder how snopes will rate this babylon bee piece?they’ve been saying that the bee is fake news instead of satire–
since we’re doing humor here,here’s a 13 second video of bernie’s bus breaking down & trump coming to the rescue-
it’s true–
I want her in charge of the country! LOLLLLLLLL. What a moron.
That made me throw up a little in my mouth…
,..
This article is inaccurate. How can she count on her toe’s if she has a cloven hoof? What you don’t understand is this is the sister of Donkey from Shrek. And, I was there when she made the “3/5 of a comment” and that’s not what she said. She actually said that in order to battle the white racist vote that white peoples vote should count as 5/3 of a vote. You and both know that 5/3 = 1 and 2/3 vote, but in never never land…well, what can you say other than, “Hee Haw!”
Here’s a novel idea – how ’bout everyone just ignore all the drivel this mental midget keeps tossing out to stay in the spotlight? She just keeps creating more heat than light – why give this ex-bartender any more attention? She certainly doesn’t deserve any.
She deserves everything she gets, and more, simply because she’s a fool.
She’s not just some faceless troll paid by the word on some blog, she represents the face of Countless Idiots who should know better, but don’t. Irony is payback.
The French journalists at Charlie Hebdo got blowback from idiots the EU allows to run loose and The Bee is pushing the envelope in a similar manner. The Bee is putting themselves out there bec ause they can, and should.
It’s just a matter of time before someone gets a major case of butt-hurt over the memes The Bee writers put out.
This stuff is like The Onion on political steroids, only better. I can’t count how many times stuff like this got posted on message threads over the years as sarcastic humor, yet people were too dense to figure it out.
Hit them with facts, they deny or ignore it. Laugh at them, and it will p*ss ’em off enough to take it seriously.
AOC once again demonstrates her ignorance by failing to understand the significance of the “three-fifths compromise” in facilitating the abolition of slavery.
and slaves were never counted as 3/5 of a person. the total slave population(of compleat, LIVING persons) is what was counted as 3/5. anyone who says other ways is either ignorant of history and needs to be educated, or just an idiot

“The writer, a typical “economic man”, completely misses the importance of Trump. Trump’s purpose – which even he probably does not comprehend – is to polarize American society, something that we are in desperate need of. Trump is just a trailblazer. Economics, while of vast importance, is not the mover of history. Race is. Our country was 90 percent white in 1965. This was before a collection of Jewish leftists and a drunken bum named Kennedy pushed through the new immigration law, lying to the American people that it would not change the face of the nation. Now we stand on the verge of losing our country to a flood of non-white paupers and subversive scum. Trump arrived at the last possible moment to wake up America, the real America. Somebody will come after him and finish the job. Unfortunately, the job will be far more bloody and destructive than it should have been thanks to the delay in the emergence of a guy like Donald. After Trump, no greaseball white politicians will be able to ignore the reality of the racial war taking place in this country. Call Trump whatever nasty name you want to – God knows he deserves most of them. When the real battle is joined he will receive the credit for having sounded the trumpet when all others were silent. Don’t be fooled by the “anti-racist” gibberish Trump spouts. Our enemies are not fooled. They know perfectly well what the score is and you, white man, better wake up as well. Vicious lunatics like Elijah Cummings, AOC, Omar, Schiff, Schumer and the rest know they are in a war against white America, the real America. You are in this war, too, like it or not.”
ss posted the above a couple of hours ago on the “greatest leader” thread–
probably the most significant thing about aoc is that in a democratic primary she defeated a vey powerful 20 year veteran congressman named joe crowley who was #4 in seniority in the democratic leadership,had no scandals & was not disliked–there was no republican running so she won the seat–
in that primary there was only a 4% turnout–
so why did aoc win?
in the 20 years crowley has held the seat,the demographics have changed from working class/middle class white to mostly hispanic/carribbean immigrants–
aoc has a hispanic name & is of puerto rican descent–
people vote 4 who they identify with unless there is a compelling reason not to–
wake up !!
So strange. Nazi Germany was 99% “white”? Stalin was white and a large portion of the Soviet Union was “white”. Do you also attempt to lift yourself up with the association of right handed people? Those Lefties have committed crime after crime, I am not pathetic because I also am right handed?
It really is weird. Are you also just like Charles Manson? Son of Sam? Those white dudes murdered other white people! How is that even possible when all billion of us are just alike and BETTER?!! The DERP is physically painful.
It is so sad that you are so pitiful that you can’t simply take pride in your own personal actions. Perhaps if you actually accomplished something other than internet posts about how much better you are than people with different skin pigmentation you would not feel the need to attempt to lift yourself up on the backs of others.
Isn’t this effectively what has been accomplished by diluting the white American population down to 60% of the overall population?
Nice comedic interlude , too bad it’s closer to the truth than fiction .
In the words of world renown pimp , Velvet Johnson “Da bitch crazy”!
She is not stupid , she and her ilk are well educated idiots . A product of modern American leftist shit for brains academics !
All smart they just don’t understand how to get up everyday and produce something thru an honest day’s work ! Consequently they feel entitled to confiscate anything and everything produced by hard working individuals thru any means necessary !
After all their dreams of socialist utopia are only interrupted by the facts .
If they would all just wear a swastika arm band to identify who exactly they are and what they are really all about !
I think what she says is very reasonable for her, considering she only has three-fifths of a brain.
By saying something that stupid, she’s just proven she’s a rayciss!
Wait a minute, now I see it’s the “Bee”. But I agree with “Not Sure”, it’s probably close to the truth.
On the other hand, why not allow the 3/5 to send the other 2/5 back to the lands of their ancestors?
max,
have you written anything new lately?
