It is mostly false. She had no idea that the protesters hadn't made it to the offices. They all were hiding.
Which doesn't matter. This isn't about whether or not AOC actually feared for her life that day, it is about how Snopes, and other left of center supposed "fact checking" outlets skew their analysis of things to benefit Democrats.
And as such are NOT true fact checkers, but instead just more noise from a one sided debate, which really then, makes it no debate at all...
I have seen some media skew the narrative. I believe it was Newsweek that did that big time. Snopes is not doing that here.
Oh but they are, it was even pointed out in bold in the OP....
It's 100% irrelevant she wasn't in the area the rioters were at. They were told to get out that a mob had broke in and her office is accessible through the Capitol. She hears someone out in the hall looking for her (them) and she has no idea who they are.
What matters in this thread is how Snopes skewed the write up on it....If you want to debate AOC's instagram proclaimations, then start a thread on that...
They are saying her statements are true. They are.
Ok, you obviously didn't read the OP, or comprehend the topic....AOC was an example, not the topic....
Then they used a very poor example.
If one wants to argue that Snopes is biased, argue it but you have to use an example that shows that.
