    She sells herself as a socialist and ran on DSA backing. Did any of the others? None of them are relevant to me unless they're claiming to be on the left.

        I don't understand the question. Why wouldn't it be? If someone says they're in your camp, it's important to know if they actually are or not. What she does will impact the reputation of every other socialist running for office by association. I don't want to be associated with judas goat liberals.

                That's a contender for one of the dumbest takes I've seen on this site. Where are the threads criticising generic democrats and republicans? Every fucking thread mentioning either. Where's your thread calling out those specific goobers if they have any relevance whatsoever to the left? If you don't want your particular favourite liberal being called out, fuck off to /r/politics where you can have your personality cult and pretend it's meaningful.

                  Hexbear tell the difference between "I don't give a shit about AOC" and "I love AOC" challenge (impossible)

                  Let me clear make my position on AOC absolutely clear: I have not and never intend to vote for her, she is #notmycongressperson

            AOC needs to be "the biggest obstacle to socialism" in order to criticize her, but you named 3 random congresspeople instead?

            What are you even trying to say?

              What are you even trying to say?

              Not that, since I didn't say anything like that.

              I have no problem with criticizing AOC. I have a problem with people obsessing over her, acting like she's way more important than she is, and giving her disproportionate attention

                But people already explained that to you and you mysteriously ignored those comments, hmmmmm...

                You don't have a point to make and just like arguing about nothing.

                    Yes it just so happens that you conveniently ignored all of the comments that explain to you why people care more about her than others. Whoopsies.
