> But the real reason it’s as nutty as a AOC’s Green Deal ...
I hit this and immediately stopped reading the article. First, it's the "Green New Deal". Second, it's not solely AOC's work (though she is probably its most prominent proponent). Third, it's not nutty; it's, if anything, a down-payment on the work we need to do to address the climate crisis. Not to mention the rest of the article (up to that point) has nothing to do with the GND, so the author had to go out of their way to make themself look like an idiot.
