If you're getting angry at Bernie and AOC, you're probably on the wrong side of an issue
Politics shouldnt be a matter of picking a team/ idol and supporting them blindly.
If a politician you formerly supported does something stupid, like how both Bernie and AOC have done recently, you aren't obligated to support them. You can and should rescind your support if they do something you disagree with. Both Bernie and AOC could be much much stronger on Gaza, and frankly, especially AOC has basically backstabbed/ abandoned the movement that got her into power. She's got "star power" at this point, where "cheer leaders" are just going to support her regardless of her policies or effectiveness. Its sad, but its how modern politics works. You start on the outside, work your way in, and then abandon those who put you into power initially.
There is no way the squad gets elected without Our Revolution/ Justice Democrats/ DSA, then venn diagram of which is pretty fucking overlapping. All of the squad minus Omar and Ro Khanna basically stopped taking any calls from progressives once we put Biden in office in 2020.
If you find yourself on the "right" side of the DCCC, you are my opponent.
Oh cool, we're just going mask-off now, huh?
Did they ever wear a mask? They've been on a short list of generally down vote on sight for the better part of a year here lol.
You n e v e r know what you are talking about @PugJesus@lemmy.world.
I'm very "first-hand" aware.
Well, then AOC should be elected as dictator and then she can eliminate the enemies of socialism then right?

The marxista are insane
