Former Assemblyman Dov Hikind sued Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Tuesday for blocking him on Twitter.
Hikind claims in a lawsuit filed in Brooklyn federal court that the freshman congresswoman prevented him from viewing her account because of “opinions he expressed” about her in replies on the social media site.
“Because of Plaintiff’s criticisms of AOC, Mr. Hikind has been prevented or impeded from viewing AOC’s tweets, from replying to the tweets, from viewing discussions associated with the tweets, and from participating in those discussions,” the lawsuit reads.
In the suit, Hikind cites a court ruling against President Trump.
A federal appeals court in New York ruled on Tuesday that Trump’s practice of blocking critics on Twitter runs afoul of the First Amendment.
Ocasio-Cortez was recently critisized for describibg migrant detention centers as “concentration camps.”
The law applies to socialists just as it does to capitalists.
See ya in court, @AOC https://t.co/RZNeK6os6A pic.twitter.com/Jdlx0CAuUy

this lady is not only dangerous, but she’s an unhinged madman, totally confused and debased.
she’s a disgrace.
Brilliant move
This is not worth our time, we should not get into public fueds that have no other result than to get in the news. Let’s focus on positive toichen and bringing Moshiach. Not twitter spats with crazy people. Dov, you’re only making a chilul hashem.
Turning the other cheek when wronged is not a Jewish concept. It’s part of —-tion theology.
So Yormiyohu Hanovi propagated foreign theology? That concept is from the third Perek of Eichah – yitein lemakeihu lechi.
If you keep being scared by the nutsos then nothing will ever get done. GOOD on him for suing. Never just sit back and let them win without a fight.
Good for him.
