Feels like (the good parts of) old chapo again, drop an AOC post and go grab some lunch... come back and there are over 60 replies :)

    She's a Congressperson - an attractive, articulate, energetic one - who grabs media attention regardless of what she says or does. She's hard to ignore.

    Keeping some dipshit like Anthony Weiner out of the seat is it's own reward. Promoting a voice that doesn't suck, even if her votes suck, is good. And backhanding the corporate weasel that Dems tried to run against her in the primary is good. And building a base of power in a major metro area is good.

    It feels good, man.

      Exactly. There is real organization by leftists on the ground here in queens that I never imagined I’d see. It obviously isn’t radical, but it’s the kind that brings our people out into the public eye and makes us look good. It’s won so many people over with just the most basic implementation of our ideology that once a big enough base is built up (and that base is SERIOUSLY building up, we are even getting political representation) we will be able to create real change
