“You refuse to call it a genocide,” one of the protesters can be heard saying.
“I need you to understand that this is not okay,” the congresswoman said in response.
“It’s not okay that there’s a genocide happening and you’re not actively against it,” the protester shot back.
“You’re lying!” Ocasio-Cortez retorted.
The protesters then proceeded to follow her down the escalator, demanding she say the word “genocide.”
“If you can’t say it, just say it. Literally. We’re just talking to you like normal people. Just say it’s a genocide. Just say it. Over 30,000 people are dead AOC, you can’t just say it for once?” another protester shouted.
The protester had been citing “figures from the Hamas-run Health Ministry in Gaza,” as noted by Fox News.
“Just say the word, that’s it. That’s all we want you to say,” the protester asserted.
At one point, the congresswoman’s fiancé, Riley Roberts, confronted them outside the building and pleaded with them to stop as they walked down the sidewalk. When a protester accused Ocasio-Cortez of being concerned about her comments going viral, she responded that her comments would be taken “completely out of context.”
“I already said that it was. And y’all are just gonna pretend that it wasn’t. Over and over again. It’s fucked up man. And you’re not helping these people. You’re not helping them,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
Ocasio-Cortez has previously criticized Israel’s response to the October 7 massacre and has even called for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

A group of protesters advocating against Israel confronted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and her fiancé Riley Roberts Monday evening outside a movie theater in Brooklyn, causing her to flip out.
As Fox News reported, the agitators followed AOC outside the Alabama Drafthouse and demanded she smear Israel’s rightful offensive in Gaza against Hamas savages a ‘genocide.”
In the video obtained by Fox News, protesters walk with their phones in their hands recording as they approach outside the theater.
After getting in the face of one of the protesters, she and Roberts walk down the escalator to get away. AOC then glares and gestures in another agitator’s face as she questions her honesty.
The protesters eventually chased her and Roberts outside the building, continuing to demand she denounce Israel’s offensive.
Once outside, AOC snapped at them one last time, this time using more colorful language.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at protesters at a Brooklyn movie theater who demanded the lefty lawmaker call Israel’s military campaign in Gaza a “genocide,” which she claimed she’d already done, video of the confrontation shows.
Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was with her fiancé, Riley Roberts, when she lost her cool and dropped an f-bomb as a couple of protesters badgered her at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema around 5 p.m. Monday.
The protesters complained that Ocasio-Cortez, 34, hasn’t publicly called Israel’s bombing of the Palestinian territory a “genocide” as they accosted her inside the downtown Brooklyn theater, according to the footage.
“I need you to understand that this is not OK,” she told one male protester who held an iPhone near her face.
“It’s not OK that there’s a genocide happening and you’re not actively against it,” the protester shot back.
“You’re lying,” Ocasio-Cortez countered as she walked down an escalator with her beau.
The protesters continued to trail behind the Democrat, who was visibly aggravated as she made her way toward the exit. Between sets of escalators, Ocasio-Cortez got in the face of the protesters to again defend herself before walking away.
