Here's a quote from her tweet: 


How is that not encouragement? Look, it's one thing to encourage kids to get out there and vote. It's another to encourage them to disrupt processes that affects an opponent's campaign. Only the left has this advantage. No one on the right would be able to do something remotely similar. It's a double standard of the highest order. I know some of you guys don't like Trump, but there needs to be a modicum of decency with regards to the processes we have in place and free speech. This is an area we used to find agreement. 
I think it's telling that now that the left has full control of most institutions, they are doing everything they can to stifle disagreement. It's a preview of what's to come, and AOC represents the worst of it.

If the people AOC is talking about even did anything the first time around, you could say AOC is encouraging them to do it again.
But she didn't encourage them to do it the first time.

Are they telling the truth?
