Living has gotta be tough when you know Ben Shapiro is updating your Wikifeet entry daily. Keep up the good work AOC. One day Ben will be gone and you'll be able to wear strappy shoes and sandals in peace once again.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Wikifeet is...real? Yup, we don't deserve the internet. Or earth.
Also, why are the feet fetishists some of the creepiest? I don't like kink shaming but why are they so weird?
Dude, how long have you been online if wikifeet is what you think puts us over the edge of deserving internet?
You could honesty find at least 300 less-popular fetishes in under an hour without even getting into the dark web.
The tabooness of the fetish isn't what he's talking about but rather the personality of the person with the fetish.
It's one thing to have weird kinks, it's another to be including non-consenting strangers into it
My theory is that some of the men who really enjoy sucking girls' big toe are sublimating their desire to show oral affection to an entirely kind of blunt roughly thumb-thickness object.
I am talking, of course, about cigars.
I love her, downvote me if you must.
Say what you will about pronouns, sometimes they aren't clear.
Wait, what? I've just reread my comment like 50 times trying to figure out what you mean.
"Her" could refer to AOC or Boebert. It is technically unclear.
lotta people are going to be real mad about their upvotes when op follows up with "...and that's why Lauren Boebert is great" or whatever.
I remember how much pearl-clutching there was over AOC. Dancing. In college. Oh, the horror! Imagine it! Dancing! All of a sudden every con became a town elder with a stick wedged in their posterior in the movie Footloose.
(By the way - I love to use those gifs of her dancing when replying to cons when the discussion is AOC.)
And now that Qbert is caught in a grope session, with children present, the cons seem to be mum. Weird.
AOC dancing in college, Vivek Ramaswamy rapping to Eminem like 2 weeks ago.
Do they really have to say alleged sex acts? I mean, there's video. Are they suggesting that maybe the groping and fondling wasn't sexual in nature?
You’re right, the uh “activity” was definitely getting her boobs groped and flashed about- and giving a handy in return (both of which looked incredibly uncomfortable, just saying.)
That said, what the video shows is a crime, and there’s fairly strict ways they can write about potential criminals which more or less mandate tacking on qualifiers- like “allegedly”, at least until they can tack on the “convicted” qualifier.
A journalistic org will always say alleged until someone is convicted, even if the crime is "obvious"
Thats a good point. She already apologized for getting caught as well. I think at this point its "verified exhibitionist sex acts"
Maybe she lost a popcorn down in her titties and he was helping get it out. And to thank him she... gave him an OTPHJ? I got nothin'.
gave him an OTPHJ? I got nothin'.
The kids are now referring to that as a Boebert.
Maybe she was vigorously trying to get a stain ~~in~~ off his pants...
Obviously she's completely correct. But she should realize at this point that it's a waste of time to ever expect conservatives to be consistent. It's not in their nature.
Right, but that's also where it's up to us to help call it out.
AOC's fighting exactly our fight, and the minute we get complacent, I say that's where we suck.
Right. Use these kind of hypocritical acts as ammunition with conservative supporters. They'll fight you. They'll get angry and defensive. They'll say it's not the same.
Don't let them get away with it. It is the same. Just keep saying that. Call them delusional. Call them out of touch.
Embarras the fuck out of them. They might not change their minds, but they will shut the fuck up and maybe even have second thoughts when voting.
She literally said “I don’t expect it.”
God wants you to feel up people in public places, clearly.
That's why he gave us 10 fingers and only two legs (obviously dancing is less important).
The article really is just about how she responded to a thing. Not even mentioning in title if she did it in a noteworthy way or anything, just that she responded. Amazing
Didn't those weirdos also go on about AOC's boyfriends feet at some point? The right wing media and the GQP have absolutely no substance. Their whole existence is a huge drain on our society.
I wish we had an AOC in the UK
I wish we had NHS in the U.S.
I wish becoming a billionaire made your head pop like a party balloon releasing glitter and little "Winner!" paper notes.
The lady has a point.
AOC has a point. There is a double standard here.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has spoken out after video emerged appearing to show House Republican Lauren Boebert engaging in what the New York congresswoman described as "sexually lewd acts" in a Colorado theater on September 10.
Boebert and a male companion were thrown out of the Buell Theatre in Denver after repeatedly vaping, using a cell phone and "causing a disturbance" during a performance of musical Beetlejuice.
In a statement, Boebert apologized for her behavior, which she claimed "fell short of my values," but made no reference to the alleged sexual acts.
She commented: "All I gotta say is I can't go out to lunch in Florida in my free time, not doing anything, just eating outside and it's wall-to-wall Fox News coverage and then you have a member of Congress engaging is sexually lewd acts in a public theater and they got nothing to say.
Boebert's team had initially denied she was vaping during Beetlejuice, but after footage emerged contradicting this, the congresswoman admitted she had been, but insisted there had been no deliberate attempt to deceive.
Boebert's male companion at the musical was later identified as 46-year-old Quinn Gallagher, co-owner of the Hooch Craft Cocktail Bar, which has previously hosted drag shows.
