  Chalking it up to racism etc. is typical superficial social media thinking that doesn’t give her credit for what she does. AOC is a lot more than a young Latina.

  Don’t forget she was a bartender in college, which they hate.

  Meanwhile boebert was very literally an escort, which is how she got into politics. Yet nobody cares
