does AOC have any connection to the University of Chicago?

    I think in 5-10 years there's going to be a lot of people in the house who talk a lot like her and specifically try to emulate her social media presence, but their politics will be in no way different from the Democratic mainstream. Basically expect a Pelosi Jr. who is trained to be more relatable to young people.

    They are similar at least on the level of willful blindness going on. All that really needed to be said with AOC is that this person was aiming to be a career politician since high school, actually managed to get there almost immediately after college and on top of that secured the DSA endorsement as a stranger with no organizing history.

    AOC and Obama were both community organizers who both kinda came out of nowhere to get into Congress but the similarities so far end there.

    AOC is just a SocDem (liberal) appropriating socialist language and rhetoric piecemeal without actually even being anticapitalist. That's probably a marginally good thing in the political hellscape that is the United States and I look forward us successfully building a socialist movement that can call her out on it from a position of comparable or greater power.
