In what way do you feel that AOC winning influence benefits our country? You are committing a variant of the Dan Carlin Fallacy. Simply hating the status quo does not mean supporting people who are also against it. Often you end up with something worse.
Well, I don't agree with her politics at all. I just don't happen to think she is personally a bad person. I kind of like her even if I hate her politics.

Anybody who wants to burn down the establishment is going to get some goodwill from me. She's in her thirties. It's pretty common for people in that age range to flirt with socialism, especially when they realize how fucking rigged the economy is against them.

As far as all this hand wringing over her.. that's basically the same type of shit we see the liberals doing every time Trump says something funny or crazy. That kind of response isn't going to win you any battles.
I don't really consider her that radical for her party though. Bernie had a lot of support. He didn't win the nom, but he had a solid base. Plus, isn't what she is after pretty much the very thing you are most worried about (ie Marxism)?

What do you even like about her personally? I haven't really been following her, but from my observations she seems like a typical NY spoiled rich bitch brat who would fit right in in Lena Dunham's clique on the show girls. I'll bet irl she is as vapid as the thots on that show. She is not as alarming to me as some of other people and trends, but I'm not on board with her in any way, and if her shit actually gained momentum I think it would be far worse than the establishment. Don't know if this shit is actually true, but she has a horse face and looks unethical to me. I'll bet it is based on that alone.
That's the narrative people keep repeating, sort of like how Trump is a cheetoh Hitler who hates the gayz. She does have some batshit economic ideas. I can't deny that. But personally, she actually seems like a good woman.

The fact that she has this nerd boyfriend is only going to make her more popular, dude.

God dammit how many times do I have to tell people to drop the AOC derangement syndrome.

This is a huge tactical mistake to push this. All you are going to do is show everybody that she has an average-looking white dude as a boyfriend, and she looks out for him. You just instilled hope in betas everywhere, and you made her look even more attractive and cool.

Fucking censor her. Sanction her. LOL.

Make her president in twenty years while you are at it.
Maybe the old guard dnc and corporatists want AOC gone....

Again though, what narrative?

Trump's children are all married to Jews and as you have pointed out, he is more to the left that Bill Clinton, so the whole rightwing Hitler carricature the Dems throw out is complete bullshit. But AOC, she is portrayed as a Marxist, and she isn't very eager to deny it. Her policies and understanding of economics are completely Marxist. I don't really see how this portrayal of her is inaccurate. The fact that she has a cuckold beta male fag boyfriend makes me think she probably also has contempt for the masculinity, family and all the other things both of us think is important. Maybe there is something here you are observing that I fail to see, but I think AOC is the embodiment of all the things I dislike about our current society. As an aside, I don't want someone who has batshit crazy ideas about economics to have any kind of power over the economy or over lawmaking abilities.

There's your problem! She has no understanding of economics. I really don't think she's very bright. There's legislators of both parties no brighter who have been in Congress for decades, so that no a disqualifier in and of itself. Anybody watch the one season political/alien invasion "sitcom" Braindead? Senator played by Tony Shaloub gets half his brain eaten by space bugs without a bump to his career. Funny show.
We are only accustomed to dealing with like twenty online personas at a time so when we only have about ten people some people have to be strawmanned in order to advance our same relative go nowhere nonsense positions. -TheReal_ND

DSL is having a reaction to the AOC shilling everywhere. I'm quite immunized to it because I have been browsing /pol/ for years and have weathered countless shill storms. They are actually boring to me now and only people ignorant of shill waves are effected by them anyway.

/pol/ normally gets an early dose of the shill tactics because that's where they experiment with them and gauge reaction. Basically AOC is being shilled big time in what is supposed to look like a Grass Roots manner and this goes both ways. Rural retards start reacting to it by freaking out and lashing out. DSL is witnessing the back lash against her being shilled (which is quite possibly also being shilled on purpose,) and freaking out about the fact she is getting attention at all.

Really this is all the same shit as always

RIGHT WING GUYS LOOK AT THIS BRAVE NEW HERO

HEY LEFT WING GUYS YOU ARE RETARDS LOL

OH YEAH WELL YOU ARE A NAZI

WELL YOU ARE A COMMIE

RAH RAH RAH

This shit is good for getting people to hate each other instead of the elite faggots playing them like puppets. It also drives voter turnout WHICH IS OH SO IMPORTANT BECAUSE IF WE VOTE HARD ENOUGH THIS TIME

All that aside AOC does represent a worrying trend anyone with eyes saw coming a mile away. She should have people thinking. Even though she isn't a serious person, these kind of people are going to become more and more common.

She is a key example of Millennial thinking. (Or lack there of)
