I mean, what do people want AOC to do? Just roll over and give up?
Not giving up and continuing to fucking try is the way, as much as it sucks and feels like it’s a neverending battle.
AOC is trying because she understands the horrors of civil war and revolution. No clear headed rational individual actually wants us to go down that path, because of the untold suffering it would cause.
Trying to keep the system from collapsing entirely is a good thing actually, no matter how much you hate that the Democrats often act as a shield for the Republicans, and no matter how shitty our original constitution actually is.
I for one am glad that progressive in office aren’t giving up and are committed to push forward despite the complete and utter continued failings of the Democratic party here.
Not giving up, and even making a little bit of headway. It’s impressive, given the open disdain from even members of her own party, how far she was able to get in this process.
Yeah, she and the rest of the progressive caucus have done a great job of pushing and representing progressive ideas, as slow and painful as it has been. I hope she and the rest of them continue to push and fight and set and example for others because some progressives need to get their heads on straight.
Right…those quotes are what you call “Fucking Lies”, in my book.
Let’s see about the actions of these crappy, corrupt dinosaurs, not their flowery lies and bullshit and if the past four years are any indication, I’m not expecting a lot of action.

I get downvoted for this on Lemmy, but if you want to make AOC the voice of the Democratic Party, exercise your first amendment rights and donate to her: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/alexandria-ocasio-cortez
You bet her billionaire opponents are also exercising their “free” speech with their money.
That’s what Democrats want.

The fact that she won’t give up in the face of insurmountable odds tells me she’s exactly the kind of representative we actually need in government.

In reading your submission, it is exactly the opposite. No one wants her to give up.

It’s weird: every time the gutless dems ratfuck the left I feel the clarity leaving my body. Probably not my best trait.
