    I like AOC in theory, but I fear she'll have made too many "compromises" before her 2028 run. I want to believe in her but my expectations are low

      I don’t like her in theory or in practice. That little bit of you that has hope for her being a socialist hero? Kill it. It’s the liberal reformist chauvinist bit of your brain leftover from being a Democrat. Suffocate it.

      I also like AOC, but frankly if the 'lefts' best chance for power is to wait until 2028 where we may get her in if if everything goes right, we're fucked

        AOC 2024 was an interesting concept to think of before biden won, but if you move the timeline to 2028 it makes it seem pretty lame. Who knows if we'll even be alive by then lol

      I absolutely agree and at the same time I find myself having to defend her constantly from shitlibs. Its a bit of a precarious situation, but if someone is punching left on her for legitimate critiques (iirc she called Maduro a dictator) i got no problems with that at all.

      She should run for a Senate seat in NY first. For the sake of electoral bullshitting. She needs more time in the oven imo.
