This is about AOC losing her bid for the Oversight committee to a geriatric Dem lifer. Sure she has systematically shredded any last bit of credibility with her triangulation, but hey, at least all the 5D polítical chess is paying off! She's changing the system from the inside! It's working this time!
Girl, you abandoned any pretense of doing working-class mass politics when you decided to do insider politics! Why are you tweeting like Bernie Sanders circa 2012? There's no we! There's no mass movement behind you! It's just NYC DSA and some Warren libs (but I repeat myself)
when you're willfully ignoring how shes literally on the record as not supporting those things and the context of which those bills were passed, then yes, you're ignoring reality. Supporting biden for reelection vs trump is not supporting his border policies. Supporting aid to the ukraine and Taiwan is not supporting genocide done by israel. not wasting every day bitching about bidens border policies on children is not the same as supporting it. As for the rail strike I disagree with her on that one but if her statement is true, then she was literally doing what she was elected to do, represent her constituents.
so whats left for me to fact check for you? yes, AOC is not a communist, but she sure hell is orders of magnitudes better than what we have and if you can't recognize that well.... thats a you problem.
So, your argument is that she said that she doesn't support those things? Hahaha. By your logic, when I am accused of something, I can just say that I didn't do that, and that will somehow become the actual truth.
Nobody should care what she says on record or thinks. What is important is what she does. And she has literally taken part in the genocide. That is supported by the article that you linked earlier.
Firstly, it's not just the bills.
Secondly, what context justifies this sort of participation in a genocide?
Yeah, it is.
She has literally made effort to specifically facilitate the genocide of the Palestinian people.
Also: Supporting 'aid' to Ukraine is supporting a war that NATO caused, and where Ukraine is not on the correct side, at least on account of trying to become a NATO outpost.
Supporting 'aid' the province of Taiwan just means that she is in favour of NATO keeping its glorified military outpost and chip factory.
Both of those things are bad on their own.
Not taking any action against those while having promised to do so and while supporting the people who carry out those policies is very much supporting those policies.
Going to apply the standards that you have applied to the PRC and other socialist projects: she's a Burgerlander. They always lie. We can't trust them.
Also, even without that silliness, she has shown herself to be a massive liar.
Cool. You support her doing bad things because she was elected to do them.
And we are supposed to support her? Lol.
You are yet to point to any of her accomplishments, you are yet to point to any issues of communist projects, you have been demonstrated to have no knowledge of history, economics, etc., etc., etc. Hell, you didn't know about the education efforts until I pointed them out to you.
In what way? You haven't named any of her achievements that you claim her to have made. What are her actions that are supposed to be laudable?
'If you don't know about her achievements that I claim she has made but can't actually name any, then it's your problem' says the person who is learning about the actual achievements of actual working-class movements in real time.
