It’s hard to take the German news magazine @spiegel.de seriously as it doesn’t take its own job seriously anymore.

Spiegel headline: Suddenly, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is dismissing "wokeness" as crazy What AOC actually said: “I have a local city councilman that has this saying: ‘Woke 1 was crazy….’ I think that during especially during covid, I think that the doors were really open in trying to entertain any and every policy that was going to get us to a better place. And I actually think that the discussions that had that were had in that time were quite fruitful. I think that when we talk about crime today, it's fundamentally different than the way that we talked about crime in bringing crime down. Right. And I think that we all share in the goals of having as low a crime rate as possible. I think that, you know, during lockdown, of course, rhetoric in that time is not rhetoric that we would use today. And I'm grateful that these candidates have the opportunity to present who they are to their electorate and what they're campaigning on in this moment“
