Glenn Greenwald claimed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) “is mocking ordinary people” who are worried about increased crime rates, after she said during a Zoom call that we need to “look at these numbers in context.” “We are seeing these headlines about percentage increases,” Ocasio-Cortez said during a Zoom conversation with Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY). “Now, I want to say that any amount of harm is unacceptable and too much, but I also want to make sure that this hysteria, you know, that this doesn’t drive a hysteria and that we look at these numbers in context so that we can make responsible decisions about what to allocate in that context.”
