It's now become abundantly obvious Bernie/AOC and their "advice" was the cause of Zohran's recent slip up concerning "Globalize the Intifada"

He had meetings with those two shortly before his stumble, in hindsight AOC may have tried to pressure him to follow her lead as she was about to make a move concerning Israel, and what a move it was, complete capitulation that blew up in her face

The first thing Zohran did after winning the primary was give a speech before the New York DSA and affirm his socialism; compared to the positive reception he received from DSA and the toxic mess of AOC, it doesn't take a brilliant politician to figure which direction the winds blowing, Israel is fuckin toxic and Americans right and left are fed up with the cult of zionism even if they don't particularly care for Palestine

Zohran who has infinitely better political instincts than either Sanders or AOC, has a front row seat to the consequences of surrender, I doubt anyone is gonna splash red paint on Zohran's door in the near future

No way on that last paragraph. Not even close to a “huge majority” of anyone.

You're right it's completely false, I'm frankly baffled how that lib nonsense above is getting upvoted, nobody bothers checking basic ass facts anymore
