U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has removed her pronouns from her bio on X, formerly Twitter. This change sparked reactions from right-wing media, with some claiming it reflects a shift in cultural values following the recent election. Despite the uproar, Ocasio-Cortez's removal of pronouns occurred well before Election Day. Screenshots show she did not include them in her bio as early as July 29, and reports indicate she may have removed them as far back as May. The Republican Party has focused on cultural issues during the election, criticizing Democratic support for transgender rights. This includes ads targeting Vice President Kamala Harris and promoting a pro-Trump message.
