Why is that there is more and harsher criticism for american succdems than foreign politicians with far greater tangible power? Anytime AOC is mentioned here, I'll see a laundry list of reasons she is an op who loves nothing more than betraying leftist ideals. Meanwhile, y'all get triggered at the slightest criticism of Ghaddafi.

      I was asking a question in good faith. I want to learn. I just see a lot of contradictions in who gets routinely roasted vs unapologetically celebrated. Just seems like any leader wanting to be free from western imperialism automatically absolves them of any other wrongdoing. And any elected official who isn't calling for the immediate abolition of capitalism and execution of all landlords is just a grifter.

        And yet, as was pointed out by @longhorn617 the fucking stakes for AOC are matierially way less and yet she still doesn't move rhetorically left, despite at one point having a platform to inject such dialogue, however briefly. Maybe it would seem more good faith if you actually, idk, actually addressed those who did give you a reason why. Fuck off bud.

          I have not addressed many other comments because I'm not here trying to argue a point. I asked the question because I don't know any better. Fuck me for that I guess
