"Famed economist Milton Keynes": Economics graduate AOC confuses John Maynard Keynes with Milton Friedman

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

At least she didn't confuse Milton Keynes with Maynard James Keenan!

Maynard Keynes was an economist

among other things....

Actually, she's mixing up John Maynard Keynes with Milton Keynes, the city in the UK.

But of course it's the Daily Mail.

Milton Keynes is my favorite economist.

OP, not many posts? What do you expect? The 'level' on the DL has plummeted in the past 10 years., especially since the millennials came on board

She's got a big mouth but what comes out of it is often just wrong... that's ok though, facts aren't important these days.

True

The irony is that r8 is a Trumpfag, and no one is a bigger liar than her idol.

Love AOC! Innocent mistake.

by Anonymousreply 11February 10, 2020 12:49 PM

OP, no one cares.

It's too highbrow for the Deplorables to understand and it's also an easy mistake to make.

Also your source is the right wing Daily Heil.

I think AOC will be fine.

Loud and ignorant, but it gets her attention and re-tweets so she's popular. The flip side of Coulter.

by Anonymousreply 13February 10, 2020 12:52 PM

Wow, this thread got 13 posts? Why am I not surprised.

But anyway, why is she being criticised, do you need to be a genius to see that the system is broken and she is just pointing it out.

by Anonymousreply 14February 17, 2020 1:59 PM

Is it really shocking at this point that she's a moron? Her whole political career, if you can even call it that, has been built on trying to be louder than everyone else. She takes pride in her ability to out-scream others. She sees being a reactionary populist as a good thing. You've seen her in action, do you really expect for her to know her ass from her elbow?

by Anonymousreply 15February 17, 2020 2:18 PM

She probably meant Keenan Ivory Wayans

Silly OP, don't you know that pointing out a mistake a democrat made makes you a racist deplorable? Even if you are right and she was wrong, you are in the wrong now because you dared to challenge our beliefs system and make us question things. I hope you enjoy your trip to the guillotine, dear!

R18, here. Sorry, I meant republicans

Milton Keynes - 1960s planned new town in Buckinghamshire, England

John Maynard Keynes - British economist (1883-1946)

Milton Friedman - U.S. economist and rejector of Keynesianism (1912-2006)

Andrea Mitchell - American journalist and miserable old sack of loose skin, married to Alan Greenspan (1926-2006, though he looked a good 50 years older) Chairman, Federal Reserve

Example #1,892 of how she's dumb.

Daily Mail is disgusting. And the "Democrats" falling for this bullshit are the worst in the party.
