AOC is so disconnected from reality: Ocasio-Cortez blown away by first experience with a garbage disposal {2019}

My grandparents grew up in the great depression. They had it very hard. They grew up homes not much different than slaves lived in during the Civil War era. My Granddad served in the Pacific during WW2 and the Korean War. The Pacific war was quite dangerous and savage and his job in Korean included tagging the bodies of all the dead American men from the front.

I wasn't born in Texas. Born and grew up in the mountains of West Virginia. One of the poorest states in the United States. Everybody was poor so we didn't really think of ourselves as poor. Honestly we had it infinitely better than my grandparents. My dad got a job in South Dallas. We had a lot more money, but South Dallas isn't exactly Highland Park. But now that I worked really hard through adversity and have been successful through education, hard work, discipline, and honesty these nitwit racists claim I am "privileged" because I am white. All too often theses bogus claims are made by people who were themselves very privileged and have no idea what poor is.

AOC is certainly one of those who has no idea what poor is: Fact Check: ‘Girl from the Bronx’ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Grew Up in One of Richest U.S. Counties
