*advancing her career

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)

    This is hilarious

    Yes, things you think shes done. I understand why you think that, you're a idealist

    I don't think the word means what you think it means. Me being an idealist would have no relation to me experiencing material reality. People have cited your own sources back at you, yet for some weird reason you haven't responded to it. Hmmm.

    your ideals are flawed but I get it.

    "Genocide is bad" is a flawed ideal and other deranged statements bade by democrats

    I've also pointed out the literal things she done that point to that she doesn't support the positions you assert she does.

    And people have pointed out the literal things she has done that does support the positions I assert she does. You don't engage with them because you're a big baby.

    Thats living in reality, understanding why she did things

    Yeah. She did those things because she's a liberal like the rest of them.

    'OH NO SHE VOTED FOR A BILL WITH AID TO ISRAEL!!! SHE BAD'

    No actually saying "oh no she supported genocide that's bad" is a pretty consistent ideological stance to have.

    its not recognizing the context shes operating in.

    It is though. It's just not the conclusion you'd like it to be because you're still at the stage in life where you think the DNC can save us or be saved or fixed or whatever. I was like that when I was a teenager too. I remember thinking Al Gore was good. Ah, those were the days, just a smooth brain.

    instead of going after literally the 400 other people who did the exact same thing you're wasting breath on one of the few people in congress who stands for literally 80% of what you want. worker owned production, better social systems, etc.

    Why would I waste my time discussing a bunch of people that aren't AOC in a thread about AOC? Why would I waste my time critiquing [far right loon] on a leftist forum? There's nothing to be gained or learned from that discussion. Yeah MTG is wacky, great. She's not a sheepdog for the left. You keep arguing that this is not productive and then complain that we don't do something even less productive. On top of that you behave as if this thread is the entirety of the site. Just go to one of the threads where we shitpost about Trump being moist or whatever if that's what you'd rather want.
    Furthermore you've still failed to point to one concrete example of AOC working towards any of those things you claim she's working towards.

    Notice how you guys are stuck here on your little island shes out there bringing the ideas you supposedly want to the masses in a nice package and you're pissed over compromise bills and lack of pointless agitation?

    You're here too, so I don't really understand your point. Yeah this is just for fun, that's what social media is? Good job? :congratulations: Other people have already gone through your inconsistency with "pointless" and "compromise" and you've ignored them every time, so I won't waste my energy there. Her "bringing the ideas we want" is also something that has been explained a bunch, so I'll just repeat myself: Genocide, border camps, union breaking, sheepdogging and so on are not things I want more of, therefore AOC is not working in my interests.

    I mean fuck child, you have so many other people to be upset about and you focus the purity tests on the only one remotely in your sphere? lol. no wonder you cant accomplish anything.

    Again I ask you (again you will fail to answer) do you think we can only critique one person? Is that how your mind works, you only have mental capacity for one person to be disliked? "Purity tests" = "Not supporting genocide" lol. Yeah real high bar to clear there. I actually accomplish not committing a genocide every single day of my life and I intend to continue accomplishing that.
    Also I thought you said she wasn't effective? So she has no effective accomplishments? They're all pointless? But I thought you were against pointless agitation? Which is it?
