*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 laughed real, high pitched , high hilarity laugh just now, not my usual internet guffaw. Thanks

That last photo always gets to me. I think it's the lipstick and I don't know why. And why is she wearing all white?

[-] miz@hexbear.net 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

probably because she intentionally dressed for a photoshoot and wearing all white implies purity and lack of complicity in what's happening

I imagine the same, but for someone who is hailed as "being great at optics" that's a really terrible idea. It screams "politician who is only here for a performative photo op"

[-] miz@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

it's a painfully obvious move

Just thinking about the mechanics of doing the shoot... Yikes

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I wonder what she was actually thinking about to summon those tears

not being invited to the cool DC kids brunch

She looks so long in this. Almost a match for long-corbyn
