@mdubowitz Socialism were always targetted by capitalist countries so that it would fail. They couldn't do it with a big country like China and the end result is for everyone to see...
AOC is as intelligent as Mamdani, if not more. Her problem is she pretends to be anti establishment, but in reality she is more of a status quo apologist. If she ever manages to become president, her real face would come out.
Mamdani may fake his smile, but he is much more honest than AOC.
@harrisonjaime There is no single definition of political party and core ideology can shift depending the era.
If someone win in the party ticket while criticizing the party, then it means party supporters want change in the line.
