Ocasio-Cortez, who changed her vote from no to present on Iron Dome at the last minute appears visibly upset. Appears to be crying on the House floor, in a hug with Rep. Jayapal— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) September 23, 2021
Sorry, the heart wants what it wants. I'm just a simple country dicksucker; when I hear someone call for blood and appear to be putting up a fight against my enemies, I say, "yay." When I see the same person do limp-dick democrat shit, I say, "boo." Probably none of this election stuff really matters anyway, so I'd rather the spectacle be spectacular instead of disappointing
Put yourself in AOC's position, she can either preach some esoteric communist dribble about how Cuba is preserving the revolution and resisting US imperialism and have all of US media give her flak over it hurting her position because, after all, most of America is convinced she's a socialist, or she can not do that and face a single day of critism from the left that no one will ever see. She's operating in a capitalist system that seeks to get her out, she's going to care more about self preservation moreso than some "principled" position that once again, only a small faction of leftists is going to care about.
Almost like people should stop expecting shit out of succdem electoralism, right? But she's also bad on her own merits - see meeting with the Bolivian fascists after the coup.
pisspig tankies
lmao at the accidental implication that anarchists love AOC
Social democrat entryists operating within the capitalist electoral system (within the second most capitalist/anti-socialist party of all time no less) cannot bring about change no matter their number in congress or the number of allies (which they will never achieve anyway). I dont know why you phrase it like that . A hundred AOCs operating freely and "standing up for themselves" wouldnt solve a bit of the capitalist rot within the systrem. 9/10 times there wont be an attempt to. So the whole "she is alone and pressured" deffense doesnt really matter and they should be dunked as any other politician that called themselves a leftist and pulled this shit
There'd be no AOC if she ran around NY doing the same shtick as SA or PSL or CPUSA, she won because she's a social democrat. Why is that so hard for people to understand? Also, the only people who think that soccdems in congress are capable of change are already committed soccdem supporters, literally not a single soul thinks that AOC or anyone else is going to radically change the system, your putting words in my mouth.
I mean I largely agree with your assessment and I think 70 or 80 percent of the AOC criticism on here is sectarian ultraleft crap but switching from "no" to "present" still makes no fucking sense. Like...if they threatened her why not push her all the way to yes, right?
Legit this is the one thing I have absolutely no idea what happened. Why pressure one representative on a vote where other people voted no that passed 420-9? And only pressure them from "no" to "present" instead of "yes"? Like, what...? It doesn't make sense from anyone's perspective. Is she that cowardly?
And yet those others voted "NO", we are not demanding she be a revolution, be charitable or at least not blind about what we are complaining about. Those other 10 people for various reasons put their foot down at least, they showed you can in fact do that. So this

shit doesn't work when other people at least did the right thing. You've been refuted by the rest of the squad

I wouldn't be dying on this hill if leftist's wouldn't shit their pants and stomp their feet everytime AOC does a cringe.

Those 10 allies basically make up the margin of Democrats' majority. They could at least use that to bring about some change, but nah.
Not that this applies to this issue because I'm sure Republicans all voted yes.
maff :party-parrot-science:

1 was a libertarian republican, but yeah good point
