After her recent move to Washington D.C., Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has allegedly discovered what a garbage disposal is, describing it as “terrifying” in a series of photos and videos she shared to her Instagram account.
“This DC apartment is bougie and has things I’ve never seen before. Like what is a garbage disposal really for,” Ocasio-Cortez asked in the video caption. “Is it better or worse to than throwing something in the garbage? Most importantly why is it so loud and yelling at me?”
K everyone I need your help because I just moved into this apartment a few months ago and I just flipped a switch and it made that noise and it scared the daylights out of me,” the 29-year-old freshman congresswoman said in the video.
AOC saying she’s never seen a garbage disposal and then proceeding to ask if it’s environmentally sound made me lose brain cells

“I am told this is a garbage disposal,” Ocasio-Cortez explained – either publicly revealing her ignorance or engaging in supreme trolling. “I’ve never seen a garbage disposal. I never had one in any place I’ve ever lived. It is terrifying. I don’t know what to use it for, or what its purpose is.
At one point, Ocasio-Cortez asked, “Is this environmentally sound?”
Ocasio-Cortez later noted: “Is this what social mobility is? Using kitchen appliances you never saw growing up?”
As she ended the message of curiosity, Ocasio-Cortez said, “All you people telling me to reach in and grab whatever’s there are just Republicans trying to test my health insurance.”
“I’m onto you,” she added.
