AOC scabbing for the rail industry two years ago was the nail in the coffin.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 hours ago

I vote for AOC resigning for voting to protect the rail corporation from the union strike.

Social democracy is objectively the regular wing of fascism.

Yeah, that sounds like the line of the Communist Party of Germany in the 1930's. Didn't end up too well. Read Trotsky on that.

Of course she does. All American politicians are Israeli puppets. It's always been strange to me that this is the case. However, I've also never seen an example that goes against the grain. Even Sanders is all about decreasing weapons sent, not stopping.

They're National Security puppets, and NatSec needs Israel.

this is the master protecting its attack dog. nothing more.

Calling American politicians Israeli puppets is firstly way too oversimplified and secondly leaves you open to being labelled antisemitic. There are even more gentiles in the Zionist project than Israelis & other Zionist Jews. Two of the largest, most powerful such groups are the Christian nationalists and the military-industrial complex.

The Squad is looking dumb right now, especially after one of their champions having lost the election. This matter further proves that.

lol now you guys are turning on AOC too

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 8 points 9 hours ago

AOC has turned on the left a while ago. She is an establishment figure.

Interesting article, thanks for the link. Wasn’t up to date with who is liked around these parts anymore. Is it just Bernie now?

Sanders is better than AOC, but still too little too late on Gaza/Palestine.

Michael Parenti gave up on him 25 years ago, over his vote that resulted in the destruction of the city of Belgrade.
