    Calling AOC a fascist is the worst kind of terminally online leftist bullshit.

    When any normal person hears that they think "lol this person doesn't have a fucking clue about anything," and they're right.

      Ah yes how could I forget to consider all the normal people who are not terminally online leftists on our Chapo Dot Chat website :michael-laugh: try another one

        People wander in here, people take screenshots from here, and the stuff people post on here bleeds over into what they post elsewhere or how they talk to people in person.

        We can't build a pipeline to the left by calling folks like AOC fascists. It does literally nothing positive and will push the "oh this person is living in fantasy land" button for everyone who doesn't already agree with you.

            Liberalism is when you care so much about being edgy that you call one of the farthest-left politicians in the country a fascist even though that very obviously is counterproductive.
