She’s not even radical. She’s advocating to stop backsliding away from and instead embrace the principles of the New Deal. The signature policy of the most popular president in American history. A policy(set of policies actually) that ushered in a half a century of economic stability and steady growth, which grew the middle class.
The US lifted more people out of poverty than any other nation. Now China holds the record of raising more people out of poverty faster than any nation ever.
Worst part is that for a rather large part of Europe, what she and Bernie want isn’t even that radical.
At least for Scandinavia, they’d be center-left.
Just shows how incredibly different we are politically
If we manage to get out of this democratically, it won’t be with one huge sweeping swing all the way to what the rest of the world considers the left. Even something vaguely resembling the left from the perspective of an actually functional country would be an insane first step toward fixing this country.
Since the 2 comments here have negative votes, I’ll go ahead and say: Good! You need some radical shit happening USA, and AOC is a good start.

AOC votes against striking workers, she isn’t any kind of leftist.
Democracy is messy
It helps to try to understand what happened and communicate a complete picture rather than harp on a single decontextualized fact.
NO TRUE LEFTIST am I right?
She’s currently the most left candidate with a chance. The Overton window is shifted and we’d be fuckin stupid to wait for “the perfect candidate”
If AOC is on the ticket, I can’t see how I could vote for someone else
the workers asked them to, that’s how cucked labor is in the US
I heard the same thing about Obama
