NYC Congresswoman <strong>Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/strong> (AOC) responded to his proposed subscription on Twitter, writing, <em>&#8220;Lmao at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that \u201cfree speech\u201d is actually a $8\/mo subscription plan&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Musk responded with a mock-tweet of his own, <em>&#8220;Your feedback is appreciated, now pay $8&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed $8 per month subscription fee hasn&#8217;t been put in place yet, but one has to wonder, will AOC pay that fee to keep the blue check next to her name? After putting out the tweet, AOC stated that her Twitter account started giving her problems.<\/p>\n<p>This is our new world of digital technology. Professionals fighting on the Twitter stage for all the &#8220;children&#8221; to bare witness.
