    Pretty sure the perception among the masses that they’ve successfully voted in a besieged socialist is what will lead to future radicalization, not online leftists throwing around “I told you sos” on niche forums

        I don’t support AOC or Bernie, they’re dogshit and engage in active deradicalization, Zohran has better politics and is a better politician by far and is actively radicalizing the largest city in America

        Zohran has given socialism more clout in America than AOC and Bernie combined in ten years, and I haven’t even brought up Zohran’s normalization of pro-Palestinian politics

        You should be celebrating that AIPAC ate complete and total shit rather than wasting your own time calculating the exact time when you have permission to “act smug”

            I never said that about AOC and Bernie, I was one of the realists getting pooped on during the later days of the old sub before the Bernie crash

            But Zohran is different, and there are quite a few hints that should clue you in to his uniqueness; he knows how to use dogwhistles (for the left), he knows how to play social media, he knows how to craft wonk policy positions that actually benefit the left, he actually fights back when the media snaps at him, he knows how to use rhetoric, he’s pro-Palestinian (which if he was a grifter would be a complete non-starter)

            That’s why he’s different to AOC and Bernie
