Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Thinks 'Jesus Gets Us' Super Bowl Ads Endorse 'Fascism'

Far-left Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed "Jesus Gets Us' Super Bowl advertisements after which netizens attacked her.

After two commercials were aired with the tagline "He Gets Us" on Sunday, the Bronx and Queens "Squad" Democrat tweeted that something tells her Jesus would "not spend millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads to make fascism look benign."

While the first advertisement urged viewers to be more childlike and featured children of different races embracing each other, the second one showed images of violent confrontations. This was followed by a display of text reading, "Jesus loved the people we hate."

At the end of both ads, the text appeared, "He gets us. All of us."

Then people were directed to a website to learn more about Jesus' teachings of "unconditional love" and compassion, reported New York Post.

Soon after Ocasio-Cortez's tweet, social media users slammed her.

Republican campaign consultant Nathan Wurtzel said that something tells him "Jesus would take issue with at least some of the things you have said, done, and vote for/against."

Another Twitter user sarcastically with a laughing emoji, "Love your enemy equates to Fascism? You are brilliant!"

Another found it "sad" that people "spreading the word of God" were met with individuals who "have to find some way to be divisive about it."

The group behind the two commercials has responded to a series of attacks from Ocasio-Cortez and others who had an issue with the advertisements promoting Jesus as a role model.

When asked to respond to ongoing attacks, He Gets Us spokesperson Jason Vanderground told Fox News that their research showed that many people's only exposure to Jesus is through "Christians who reflect him imperfectly, and too often in ways that create a distorted or incomplete picture of his radical compassion and love for others."

They believe it's more important now than ever for the real, "authentic Jesus to be represented in the public marketplace as he is in the Bible."

Referring to one of the ads, he explained that on several occasions, Jesus used the term "childlike" to refer to a "humble and trusting attitude."

He said that Christians often refer to their faith as childlike, "being humble enough to place one's trust in a power greater than self."
