En tu país no hay democracia. El respeto a las elecciones requiere que no haya injerencia extranjera. No tienes autoridad moral para decir nada sobre Venezuela.
Eres la cara nueva del imperialismo de siempre. Te reclutaron del pueblo colonizado de Puerto Rico para limpiarle las manos a los colonizadores.
Machine translation: "There is no democracy in your country. Respect for elections requires that there be no foreign interference. You have no moral authority to say anything about Venezuela.
You are the new face of imperialism as always. You were recruited from the colonized people of Puerto Rico to clean the hands of the colonizers."
She’s just the living example of why left entryism isn’t the best strategy, right?

calling it entryism gives her too much credit tbh. more like opportunism on her part to capture anti-dem energy and use it as a springboard for her congressional career. her entire career is dem establishment before and after so idk that you can say she was ever trying to do an entryism
it does indict entryism for sure though as well, in that it’s more likely to give another route to power for opportunists to recuperate left energy than it is to result in shifting a bourgeois party left
It just turns people into progressive democrats who have to carry water for state department talking points to be taken “seriously”.
There is basically no socialist organization to consistently challenge the narrative and framing because DSA has decided to be tailists.

Just yesterday, my very Puerto Rican father said “I don’t know what they did, but they made her white”
To which I responded “They made her a member of congress, that’s what they did”
Then I spent the next 10 minutes explaining what a ghoul is

my dad

Wasn’t AOC like…recruited by some group specifically to primary an “establishment” democrat?
yeah lol, Brand New Congress recruited her to primary Crowley
doesn’t change the fact that she interned for Ted Kennedy.
e: I guess calling BNC entryist probably gives them too much credit too
