Freshman New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded to The Post’s report on her giant carbon footprint by saying she’s just “living in the world.”There is no problem with living your life, but if you want to change the way that I and most Americans live, perhaps you should lead the way, by example. Americans respond favorably to folks who live the example of their philosophy, but tend to ignore those who espouse change on the masses without living the change personally.
It's like the global-warming glitterati who fly to Devos in their private jets and complain about my carbon footprint. It smacks of hypocrisy.
It IS hypocrisy... plain and simple.
