Oh brother. When a “blatantly mean tweet” about Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s boyfriend started to make the rounds on Twitter, supporters of the Congresswoman came to the couple’s defense.

Using the original quote and a slew of fictional characters, a new Twitter trend was born, and I’m both angry Rocket Raccoon was included and happy to see Twitter calling out the unnecessary cruelty of the original tweet.
