The hate surrounding AOC is beyond irrational. The woman isn’t corrupt, she didn’t steal an election, she didn’t award lobbyists contracts, she didn’t sell out, she didn’t write private emails on a government server, lets see what else do snow flakes whine about over the years… she didn’t sleep with an intern and didn’t have one, then, to lie about not sleeping with, so there’s no perjury there either; she didn’t cheat her way into anything, and with all due respect to people that pretend like she insulted their ancestors by calling a concentration camp a “concentration camp”, unless they’re currently still in a concentration camp like those kids are, any tears about it are bullshit crocodile tears. You wanna cry about something? How about the kids in concentration camps? Can’t do it?

Then we are beginning to get to your core racism. And it’s time now, in 2019, to drop that shit like a bad crack habit. If you just won’t let it be those refugee children that drive you to empathy, then there’s abundant examples of hate crimes against Jews, hate parades featuring Holocaust deniers, and defacement of gravestones and memorials of Holocaust victims that you could be outraged about. But I won’t accept AOC being the thing that makes you cry — fuck you and your feigned ruffled feathers that AOC gave you when she called a concentration camp a concentration camp.

Here’s what she did do: she \*did\* attend Boston University’s school of government, she \*did\* clerk for Ted Kennedy, she \*did\* unseat a “safe” centrist bullshit Democrat, she did win election to Congress, she \*did\* have to work as a bartender because she pulls herself by the bootstraps — I guess that narrative only works on people that are white and beloved by big banks and big pharmaceutical firms — she did promise her constituents action and she delivers consistently on that promise.

She is a proud, determined powerful brown woman.

And that scares you. That is the only plausible reason you should not like this woman.

It’s probably a good time to let everyone know this post isn’t meant for right winged men. Of course they don’t like AOC — she’s a leftist. This is for the scores and scores of generally sensible men (who are, let’s face it, white as fuck) that have given in to the right wing caricatures about this woman. Most of you complained as we all did that the Democrats needed to grow a spine. Well, now they have, and you’re stupid enough to take the poison pill the right wingers offer about her? You think you’re earning points with some imaginary incel friends you suddenly made? That you won’t get a promotion or a date unless you make it be known on some record that you don’t trust AOC or that you repudiate AOC?

Do you suddenly trust Nancy fucking Pelosi and Chuck Schumer? Because that’s your alternative. That’s your spineless Republican-lite contingency.

You probably shouldn’t be palling around with imaginary incel friends, either, let alone imaginary friends at that. I’m serious: it’s time to become more self aware. You need to admit that the reason you are afraid of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is because she’s a proud, determined, powerful Latina woman.

And that’s fucking pathetic.
