    geordi-no Leftists ripping on an incredibly popular politician who pushes a lot of genuinely good stuff because she's not Lenin

    geordi-yes Leftists critically supporting the good stuff AOC does and using her to pipeline people left

    When you're talking to mainstream libs, use AOC as a foil for how shitty their favorite candidates are in comparison. When you're talking to DSA-type AOC supporters, acknowledge that she's better than mainstream Dems but highlight how she's never going to get anything done absent sweeping, fundamental change lenin-heisenberg
