Member-of-Congress Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has declared that "feelings" are more important than "facts" .
As "Facts=Reality", that denial of reality is a psychological pathology. Basing the laws and policies of our nation on feelings, denying facts, is a "clear and present danger" to an a "political pathology" in the United States.
An example of her gross ignorance of facts is her statement that President Lincoln's issuing of The Emancipation Proclamation was a "radical" act. She is either lying or is horridly, for a Member, ignorant.
That proclamation was issued. as a very considered action, in the middle of The War Between The States at a time when The Union was still in great peril and its unity still threatened. It was intended to weaken the rebellious States. It did NOT apply to slaves held in other States. It was in opposition to Lincoln's own held views of Blacks and, probably, issued only as a matter of "military necessity".
At first, I was thinking of recommending that Speaker Pelosi require Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez "go back to school" to study: American History; And, from a "middle of the road" teacher, the facts of economics. However, I will not bother with that as I have, rationally, concluded that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is NOT "educable".
