One of AOC’s most famous (and dumbest) lines was that everyone who criticizes her is actually just a creepy weirdo who is obsessed with the idea of getting to date her, as if anyone is even remotely interested in that. In her words:
If Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet.
Ya creepy weirdos
It’s starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women,& LGBT+ people in general.
These people clearly need therapy, won’t do it, and use politics as their outlet instead. It’s really weird

It’s ridiculous obviously, as was pointed out by the legions of people ripping into her on Twitter, but was funny enough that it turned into a joke that pops up repeatedly.
So, Elon brought it back when AOC went on the warpath against him for daring to buy Twitter and bring back free speech on the platform. She said:
“Tired of having to collectively stress about what explosion of hate crimes is happening bc some billionaire with an ego problem unilaterally controls a massive communication platform and skews it because Tucker Carlson or Peter Thiel took him to dinner and made him feel special”

So, Elon, rather than do the usual conservative “aktshually….” thing and launch into some argument about how he’s not funded by Thiel and Trump, went ahead and just used her dumb point against her, saying:
Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy
Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy

Not only was it funny, but he ratioed her in minutes, with his clapback joke being liked about four times as much as her ridiculous claim about her.
Here’s a screenshot in case AOC claims that all those people who want to date her are getting too creepy or something and deletes the tweet:

Of course, the leftists who are still on Twitter despite Elon’s purchase of it predictably lost their minds, with this tweet by some bluecheck named Nina Turner being a prime example of the leftie freakout over Elon’s joke:
The safety of marginalized communities is not a joke. The fact that you think it is proves her point.

Unexplained was how free speech puts “marginalized communities” in danger, much less why an enumerated right should be restricted to keep them safe from the phantom harm.
This one was equally ridiculous, particularly given that he was just reusing AOC’s line:
Sexualizing the legit criticism of a woman speaking in a professional capacity by suggesting that she’s just attracted to you?
I know your whole thing is stealing other people’s jokes because you aren’t clever enough to come up with your own, Elon, but this is sad, even for you.
I know you’re sad about Grimes breaking up with you and whatever, Elon, but it would be great if you could stop acting like everyone’s least favorite divorced uncle for one second and actually engage with people’s valid criticisms like an adult.

Fortunately, however, Elon moved on, leaving the leftists to shed their leftist tears while he chuckled at his joke and did something productive.
