"Bernie's supporters have been very, very damaging to him, and it's really frustrating to see and experience. They don't realize how influential they are. It's frustrating to feel like they are hurting him," Ocasio-Cortez said in the midst of the 2020 primary, according to the book. "I feel like Warren is scooping up LGBT, progressives, women, and progressives of color because of how they isolate."

She also worried that the behavior of Sanders's supporters were "forcing an unnecessary choice between class analysis and race analysis" through their "behavior, not so much policy."

Ocasio-Cortez made those comments as she mulled whether to endorse Sanders's 2020 campaign, even though she had worked as an organizer on his 2016 campaign.

          Just everything is so odd:

          Jerseys hung up on wall via plastic hangers

          Could they not afford a cheap poster frame?

          Spiderman and Pan movie posters

          Not my first choice, but sure

          DVD cases hung on the wall

          What the actual fuck. Let's see what's here: capeshit, sure; random action slop (Meg, Hobbs & Shaw, Equalizer 2), uhhh alright; PETER RABBIT, wot.

          MLM poster on the wall (It Works)

            I was gonna say, every barbershop I've been in has had the barber chairs lined up, facing a wall with a mirror on it. Not in the middle of the room, on a rug, surrounded by sofas.

            The guy getting his haircut has dreads and the barber is holding just a comb. What is going on.

      I love when people do blackface on social media. It's so cool and not at all weird to roleplay as a minority to try and own other white people.

        Mayo Pete’s campaign manager (Liz something) got caught literally pretending to be a black man on twitter who kept hyping up Pete.

      I winced from the secondhand cringe reading this. It was probably him saying that and everybody telling him to shut the fuck up.

        They got challenged on it, so the warren campaign seems to have staged a fake barber shop to prove it wasn't made up https://nitter.net/STEFisDOPE/status/1231425884063764480
