Nope, not sarcasm. Your comment sounded either like toxic masculinity or some form of "kids these days". Yes, it's good to worship brave people who risk their lives simply to make progress. But it's just plain silly to mock and insult people who've come to feel *entitled* to walk down the street without being murdered. AOC is right to expect to be safe in fulfilling her representative duties. And *that* she normally does is a Good Thing. That Navalny is NOT safe, and has no expectations of being safe, demonstrates that Russia is not a civilized country.
