AOC: “I. Was. Wrong.”
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez did not actually say those exact words in the headline above. She kind of suggested it in a recent interview, which you can view above. Here’s the transcript:
”I have a local city councilman that has this saying, ‘Woke 1 was crazy,'” [she laughed while saying this] “And I think that’s what’s important is that we have to assess what a candidate is saying now. And I think that the doors were really open in trying to entertain any and every policy that was going to get us to a better place. And I actually think that the discussions that were had in that time were quite fruitful.”
In other words, “don’t judge us by the crazy things we said yesterday.”
dictionary.com defines crazy as, “demented; insane; lunatic; crazed; bizarre, nonsensical.”
No laughing matter
Although AOC laughed off the lunacy of her movement, it wasn’t funny to the people who were hurt physically, emotionally, financially, or reputationally. The sheer cruelty of wokeness shattered the lives of millions of Americans. It left our country worse off and worn out.
Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is clearly angling for a presidential run. According to many pundits, there is not just a chance she’ll be on the Democrat Party’s ticket in 2028, there is likelihood. So she shouldn’t be given a free pass in brushing aside years of crazed, heartless wokeness. She needs to be held accountable, especially for her nonsensical and destructive ‘Green New Deal’ initiative.
“The world is gonna end in twelve years”
Pulse Life Advocates has written on the coercive impact the Green New Deal has had on young people who refuse to bring children into this world out of fear of ‘climate apocalypse.’ Ms. Ocasio Cortez’s fanatical obsession with so-called ‘climate change’ led her to feed into the fears of young people, notably her claim (above) that “the world is going to end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change.”
5 years left to the end of the world?
For the record, she said that in 2019, which means that if she’s correct, we’re down to a mere 5 years of existence on planet earth.
Bill Gates is part of a growing number of international leaders reassessing the breathless pronouncements of a demagogue like Representative Ocasio Cortez. Said Gates in November of 2025,
“There’s a doomsday view of climate change that goes like this: ‘In a few decades, cataclysmic climate change will decimate civilization. The evidence is all around us — just look at all the heat waves and storms caused by rising global temperatures. Nothing matters more than limiting the rise in temperature.’ Fortunately for all of us, this view is wrong. Although climate change will have serious consequences — particularly for people in the poorest countries — it will not lead to humanity’s demise. People will be able to live and thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future.”
Bjorn Lomborg, president of the international climate think tank, The Copenhagen Consensus, amplifies Gates premise:
“WE NEED TO take a collective deep breath and understand what climate change is and isn’t. It is not like a huge asteroid hurtling toward earth, where we need to stop everything else and mobilize the entire global economy to ward off the end of the world. It is instead a long-term chronic condition like diabetes—a problem that needs attention and focus, but one that we can live with. And while we manage it, we can live our lives and address the many other challenges that ultimately will matter much more for the future.”
Steven Koonin explains that climate models are simply unreliable. He is a theoretical physicist, environmental scientist, and former Undersecretary of Science for the Obama administration. In his book, “Unsettled: What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn’t, and Why it Matters,” he explains:”
“The results from many different climate models disagree with, or even contradict, each other and many kinds of observations. In short, the science is insufficient to make useful predictions about how the climate will change over the coming decades, much less what effect our actions will have on it.”
Why young people don’t want babies
And yet young people between the ages of 16 and 25 are terrified of the future, thanks to crazy rhetoric flowing from opportunistic politicians. In a landmark study conducted by The Lancet Planetary Health:
• 75% of young people globally say they find the future “frightening,”
• 56% explicitly agreed that “humanity is doomed,”
• Nearly half hesitate or feel afraid to have children due to ecological breakdown and severe weather threats.
These fears are all unfounded, fueled by a flood of shameless, crazy, fake news. But its tentacles run deep through the culture.
Morgan Stanley, a large multinational investment bank, told their investors that the “movement to not have children owing to fears over climate change is growing and impacting fertility rates quicker than any preceding trend in the field of fertility decline.”
Royal influencer, Prince Harry said he and wife, Meghan Markle, plan on limiting the size of their family to two children due to “environmental concerns.”
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, poured fuel on the fire in her crazy, zany Woke 1.0 days with her proclamation to her 1.5million Instagram followers:
”Basically, there’s a scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult. And it does lead, I think, young people to have a legitimate question: Is it okay to still have children?”
Pulse is waiting for her retraction, especially in light of her recent viral video (below) of her harvesting her eggs for future implantation. You wouldn’t take such an action, much less publicize it, if you truly believed the world is going to burn up in five years.
A burning hellscape?
CNBC did us all a service by capturing the comments of a generation of people terrified of bringing children into this world, comments like these:
Jessica Combes, a 39-year-old English teacher, told CNBC: “I refuse to bring children into the burning hellscape we call a planet.”
Daniel, a Brit living in Dubai, said:“Over the last few years, the climate has definitely been a major contributor to us not wanting children.”
Advertising executive, Thom James, agreed:“I had a major depressive episode last year based on existential angst over the world my children would be growing up in. Worrying about their future is a frequent trigger for me. I’m constantly thinking about when it’s going to be appropriate to dissuade them from having children of their own, as I think we’re really past the point of no return.”
So what do couples do who become pregnant and don’t want children to be born into a world on the brink of destruction? Abort.
Climate hysteria is a key contributor to abortion and the world’s precipitous drop in fertility rates.
Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez fueled climate hysteria with her full-throated support of Woke 1.0. Today, she laughs it off.
It’s no laughing matter. She owes the public an explanation and an apology.
