AOC doesn't take accountability in what she is saying, when pressured doubles down.

I have not once discounted your fear. We were ALL terrified that day.
I’m stating the fact that insurrectionists were never in our hallway... because they weren’t. I deal in facts. Unlike you, apparently.

You seem to be triggered by facts so let me be clear:
I have not ONCE discounted your experience. It was harrowing for all of us.
FACT: Insurrectionists weren’t in our hallways. It’s your eagerness to politicize absolutely ANYTHING that deserves condemnation.

But now, in typical @AOC
fashion, you’re making this political, even going as far as saying I don’t “hear” victims of assault — ME, of all people. You don’t know my story. SMH. Just stop it.
AOC attacking a rape survivor.

“... But to accuse an actual rape survivor, and one who used her experience to vouch for other rape survivors, of silencing other survivors is appalling...”
@AOC
attacks GOP rape survivor Nancy Mace for silencing rape survivors

In response, AOC attacked her as silencing rape survivors, given that AOC had revealed she was sexually assaulted (an assertion that had no real relation to the Capitol storming).
Other than Ocasio-Cortez's usual penchant for theatrics, there's just one major problem: Mace is a rape survivor — and one who has used her experience to help other survivors in a massively consequential way.
Back when the South Carolina legislature was debating a fetal heartbeat bill, Republicans wanted to exclude a rape and incest exception. After a quarter century of telling next to no one, Mace revealed that she was raped when she was 16 as a part of her plea to her colleagues to concede to adding the exception to the bill she otherwise supported. Although the legislature didn't ultimately succeed at getting the bill signed into law at the time, the bill is finally about to pass the state House, after which the Republican governor is expected to sign the bill, which includes the exception Mace fought for, into law.
