*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)

    I agree AOC is relatively effective at accomplishing her goals which is why we shit on her. Because her goals seem to be only to empower the Democrats to do evil things and provide them some cover. She is pretty good at that.

    However I don’t think merely accomplishing things is a good enough reason to support someone. The things they are trying to accomplish need to be worth accomplishing. I’m not just on whatever team I think is currently winning. what is something she has accomplished that I, or other communists, would like?
