minus-squareThebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoDon’t forget she was a bartender in college, which they hate. Meanwhile boebert was very literally an escort, which is how she got into politics. Yet nobody cares

Shes been doing this for a few years now, picking up the torch that Bernie Sanders lit three decades ago. And behind her are hundreds of politicians who are empowered by people like her to rise up. AoC (and Bernie) walked so these new folks can run.
