31. Again, I Didn't Accuse You Of Lying
Wed Jul 1, 2026, 10:13 AM

I don't know you from Adam. I pointed out the discrepancy and suggested that the discrepancy made it even less likely that AOC made an endorsement, not as some sort of character attack on you. Life is too short to waste my time attacking anonymous people online.

However, I am very interested if there is any significant split between two leaders of the progressive movement, which is why I made the comment. It would have been noteworthy if they had competing endorsements, but clearly they did not here despite what seems to be a misunderstanding made in good faith.
