AOC ISN’T A FAN

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) had some sharp words for Facebook’s decision to change its corporate name to Meta — a reference to a Facebook “metaverse.”

“Meta as in ‘we are a cancer to democracy metastasizing into a global surveillance and propaganda machine for boosting authoritarian regimes and destroying civil society… for profit!’” the New York progressive wrote in a tweet.

Ocasio-Cortez quote-tweeted a news outlet that had included a video of the Facebook announcement in its message.
