It's implied and in this case it's accurate.Well, that's stupid. I would like to say there must be more to the story but it's AOC. There usually isn't.

Uh.... hello?? Have you even so much as read this board?
It's also worth noting that nowhere was Cortéz quoted using the term "de-program". Nor did the article link to it. Nor is she quoted on any assessment of how big a "swath" white supremacy is anyway, merely calling it "nihilist".
Uh....hello?? Have you seen my ignore list on this board?
She used de-radicalize which is a thing and de-program is what it does. It's a thing used in other countries to "de-program" terrorists. There are several. For example, the prisons in Italy use them because that is where many individuals become radicalized.
How would I see your Ignore list?
I'm just saying, the title is taking leaps. It's taken from the source article headline, which also takes leaps. The quote is not in there. Check me.
When somebody -- in this case the New York Post, not exactly a bastion of objectivity -- sees fit to change somebody's words into what they would have liked them to say, they're being dishonest.
(Because I post my list every once in awhile)
Maybe the first time was posted in Croation, I dunno, but you DON'T get to change somebody's words to what you wish they had said. That subject chose the words they chose and did not choose the words they didn't. Therefore morphing somebody's terms IS dishonest. PERIOD.
Fer fuxsake this is a bait headline used to sell papers, or today, clicks.
