People are so afraid of the working class Latina woman who dared defy the old white dude.

I'm glad leftists are finally over identity politics.

@Budwick I don't care what she is. I just recognize that is part of why the right is so fearful of her.

@ViciDraco What about the old white dude?

And to be clear - you have clue what the right is thinking.

@ViciDraco Hi Vico. AOC is young, attractive,fiery, and passionately full of her (sometimes mistaken) convictions. Because of that she is now a media darling, and also, because she is so controversial. And she is so controversial because some of the things she says and proposes are...shall we say...not well researched?

Would we line up breathlessly to hear her next pronouncements if she were still working for Bernie Sanders, and serving coffee?

[i]The pompous, deranged little twit
Will rile the old dudes quite a bit.
Of course, they have reason
To b*tch for a season;
The twit clearly DOESN'T know sh*t.[/i] 🤭

@4meAndyou" Born to a working-class Puerto Rican family in the Bronx, New York, Ocasio-Cortez graduated from Boston University, majoring in economics and international relations, and worked for Senator Ted Kennedy's office where she focused on immigration issues while in college.

After graduation, she returned home and became a community organizer. However, with the recession taking hold, along with the financial issues her family faced after her father's death in 2008 from cancer, Ocasio-Cortez took multiple low-wage restaurant jobs to help keep them afloat."

Based on her bio, I wonder how someone who was an economics major can presume to become an enviromental expert?

Didn't Bill Clinton say something like that about Obama in 2008? 🤫
