*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)

    Na, I’m just enjoying trolling you twits as much as you are me

    People responding to your arguments is in fact not trolling. The fact you take critique as a meanspirited thing is a you-issue.

    she said ‘these are the things I will push for’ and if you compare what shes put forward into congress and what she said they’re actually similar.

    So if you look at the responses you’ve already gotten, you know that’s a lie.

    You’re making the classic mistake of blaming her for bills put forward by others.

    “Please don’t blame her for things she votes on” and other silly things liberals say to defend genocidal warmongering union breakers.

    Personally when something is put forward that is better than the current situation I take it. you still moved the needle, maybe not as much as you’d like but you do it.

    And the day that something comes along that moves things forward, I’ll be happy to move that needle. Until then I’ll continue to not support genocide.

    See above. again mistaking a vote for personal beliefs.

    kitty-cri <- You except you’re not cute.

    No, this is literally not what I’m telling you.

    You’ve literally just talked about moving the needle. Which is it?

    'm saying you’re going after one of 3 people who are even remotely similar to your positions (aka: anticapitalist, pro workers)

    You’ve been shown a bunch of times that those are not her positions. Do better.

    Its not the same as saying shes ‘pushing dems to the left’ fuck that. they’re a lost cause as a party.

    You seem to be stuck on “the dems”. We are critiquing AOC and how she functions within the system.

    yet you dont realize what she just demonstrated with that maneuver. sad really.

    inconceivable + smuglord + sephiroth posting lmao. “You cannot comprehend the depths of her mind maze” lol you just cannot comprehend the fact that you’re cool with throwing brown children in cages and murdering palestinians and other people aren’t. I’d say it’s okay, but it’s not.

    Shes literally doing exactly what you want to accomplish and you can’t even see it.

    Like how she helped crush strikes or like how she helped a genocide or like how she stopped giving a shit about border camps or etc?
    You people always talk in vague terms because anything specific immediately makes it obvious what your actual politics are.
