New Republican ‘genocide’ advert reminds Democrats like AOC of the horrific track record of Socialism!

“This is the face of socialism. And ignorance,” says the thirty-second clip, opening on the smiling image of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York), a self-described democratic socialist. The face then begins to burn away, revealing the grisly photos of the 1970s genocide in Cambodia.

Does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez know the horror of socialism? My father was minutes from death in Cambodia, before a forced marriage saved his life,” says the narrator, revealed to be Republican activist Elizabeth Heng. “That’s socialism. Forced obedience, starvation. Mine is a face of freedom. My skin is not white, I’m not outrageous, racist, nor socialist. I’m a Republican.”

The controversial ad reportedly cost $96,000 to air Thursday evening in New York, Washington, DC and Houston, Texas, where the DNC presidential debate took place.

Republicans are running TV ads setting pictures of me on fire to convince people they aren’t racist,” Ocasio-Cortez, also known as AOC, tweeted in response. “Life is weird!”

Not Republicans. Me. Are you really calling me a racist @aoc? I’m calling all Democrats out for supporting an evil ideology. Or are you just in Congress to hang out with celebrities and tweet out ridiculous ideas like the green new deal? https://t.co/w985LYjIZd

Just minutes later, she followed up, explaining what the Heng really meant: “Know that this wasn’t an ad for young conservatives of color – that was the pretense. What you just watched was a love letter to the GOP’s white supremacist case.”

“Are you really calling me racist, AOC?” Heng shot back. “I’m calling all Democrats out for supporting an evil ideology.”

Heng pointed to the furor on Friday morning as proof what the Democrats were all about.

“They are more offended by truthful words than the acts of their political ideology that has killed millions of innocent victims,” she tweeted. “I don’t care about [AOC’s] feelings – I care about stopping her lies about the lies of socialism.”

.@aoc response is the Democratic party in a nutshell.  They are more offended by truthful words than the acts of their political ideology that has killed millions of innocent victims.  I don't care about @AOC feelings – I care about stopping her lies about the lies of socialism.

Heng was a staffer for Republican Congressman Ed Royce, and ran for Congress herself last year, losing to a Democrat in California’s 16th district. She recently set up New Faces GOP, a political action committee aiming to “help diversify the Republican Party.”
