AOC responds to Lauren Boebert's "sexually lewd" theater "show"
newsweek.com

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.

Surveillance footage from inside the theater appeared to show Boebert's male accomplice groping her breasts, and then being groped in turn by the Republican firebrand. 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.

Ocasio-Cortez responded to the controversy in a one-minute video posted to her 323,000 TikTok followers on Thursday, in response to a viewer's question.

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.”

"I danced to Phoenix once in college and it was like all over the place. But putting on a whole show of their own at Beetlejuice and there's nothing? I'm just saying be consistent. That's all I'm asking for. Equal treatment. I don't expect it, but come on."

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 more taboo 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

hmm, don't think this is true anymore. the internet is too consolidated. I'm thinking like 3 big ones at most these days.
