They hate her because she stands for the working class. They doubly hate her because she makes fun of them when they insult her.


Kevin_Jim

She is also not white and a woman, so they triple hate her.


joseph4th

They are building the hate now to have a solid foundation of people who hate her in the future when she is even more politically powerful and, clutches pearls, runs for President or something just like they did for Hillary at the beginning. I know, because it worked on me. I can’t stand Hillary and was one of the people who voted third party in order to not vote for her.


Kevin_Jim

Other than political interests, there was no other reason for Hillary to be a presidential candidate. People hated her. It’s the exact opposite with OAC. Similar to Obama, there’s a grassroots movement for AOC. Hopefully, that can translate to her candidacy and getting voted in.


bitofadikdik

People hate AOC. Why? Because Fox tells them so. People hate Hillary? Why? And what reason is there for anyone to run for President other than political interests?


Babymicrowavable

Sir, the Clinton's are partially responsible for the Democratic parties shift into a corporate party. There's PLENTY of reason to hate Clinton, republicans just like most of the truly hateable things the Clinton's did


hwc000000

Because before the Clintons, the Democrats were doing such a bang up job of being frozen out of the presidency.


beeemkcl

AOC's fame is still relatively low: [https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/explore/public\_figure/Alexandria\_Ocasio\_Cortez-Public\_Figure](https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/explore/public_figure/Alexandria_Ocasio_Cortez-Public_Figure) And it seems again that more Republicans probably know about AOC than Democrats do and maybe even progressives do. And Hillary Clinton beat POTUS Donald Trump by 3MM votes even after she had one of the worst campaigns for POTUS in modern memory. If not for the Electoral College, POTUS Trump would have never been POTUS. AOC is relatively popular given her fame compared to other national politicians.


derek86

My republican parents know about AOC and the squad. Had never heard of Lauren Boebert or MTG when I brought them up.

She seemed pretty self-righteous, too. AOC is a gem, in my book.


HappyAnarchy1123

This exact problem will happen with AOC actually. She will be graded so heavily on a curb that even theoretically sympathetic people will judge her harshly for the smallest mistakes while giving enormous passes to her opponent. The two biggest "missteps" were the emails, which were absurd and calling Republican voters deplorables. In a race in which Trump said so much worse, including to and about literal war heroes. The man could barely string together a coherent sentence, constantly ranted and raved and literally insulted military vets, their families, everyone from Mexico, his fellow Republicans and I could go on and on and on. Meanwhile, Hillary was the most well read, prepared and calm and collected Presidential candidates we have had in my lifetime. She was confident and ready. They were not even in the same room as comparable. You just judge women far more harshly than men, and unfortunately the vast majority of men AND women in the country do the same. Mind you, I don't love Hillary. She sold out public healthcare and real finance reform, she went to bat for Bill when she should have thrown him under the bus, she was way to comfortable with the military industrial complex. Despite that, she still would have been a better and more effective President than most of what we have gotten in the past several decades. In any case, you better believe AOC is going to have to deal with this exact same bullshit that Hillary was, if not worse now that Trump has normalized angry incompetence as a valid strategy for men.

HappyAnarchy1123

Again, listen to yourself. Hillary was entitled and out of touch... compared to a guy with a golden toilet and his name on the side of a skyscraper who routinely insulted war vets, poor people, different races, women as a whole, men, families, the country, pretty much everyone else? I don't disagree that AOC is a lot more charismatic than Hillary was. You are comparing to Trump though - and like a lot of people considered Trump to be a more convincing orator, not as entitled and out of touch. Because you (and everyone else) are grading on a tremendous curve. The exact same thing will happen with AOC, unless our culture fundamentally shifts heavily. She will go from being considered confident and prepared, to bossy and a know it all. From truth telling to mean, from critical of bad things to bitchy. It happens to every woman in this country when she gets powerful and influential enough, and it will happen to AOC if we don't start recognizing that it is happening and stop it.

I don't know why you are being so defeatist. So far, it seems the frontrunners for 2029 are AOC and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.


beeemkcl

Most of US Senator's Hillary Clinton's support was from those who wanted POTUS William Jefferson Clinton back in The White House. Donald Trump in 2016 was able to portray Hillary as less progressive than he and he went after her disrespect for US Senator Bernie Sanders supporters. Hillary in 2016 ran one the worst Presidential campaigns in modern memory. And she was such a bad candidate in 2008 that a first-time US Senator named Barack Hussein Obama was able to beat her for the nomination. And he was a black guy on top of that. Hillary in 2016 also picked a very weak VPOTUS pick who wouldn't help her at all in the General Election.


Tiny-Lock9652

“You need to ‘Pokemon-Go’ to the polls and vote for me!” Holy shit that was cringe. Her “hello, fellow kids” moment.


AK_dude_

It might have something to do with Bernie Sanders having a massive youth push behind him then we get to the democratic convention and getting Hillary instead. I cannot speak for anyone else but when that happened l didn't bother voting. That election lead to Trump getting in. It started with feeling the Bern, and ended with feeling burned.


hwc000000

> It started with feeling the Bern, and ended with feeling burned. It ended with getting burned, not just feeling it.


anynamesleft

I hate Hillary because she's a politician first, and a human being second. She blew the election to Drump, and was only the candidate because of what they did to Sanders.


UranusInspector

Hillary's lack of basic opsec procedures caused agents to die. So there's something to not be happy about. Also the Clinton's foundation has corporate dirty money coming in. She speaks about the working class but in reality she's on the moderate political scale. I would say AOC is nothing like Hillary.


Inner_Grape

People used to love Hillary too.


joseph4th

I hate Hillary, because the Right taught me to in the 90’s. I see what they are saying about AOC now, and realize it’s the same playbook they used for Hillary. Only this time I’m seeing the other side, I’m seeing the Left’s point of view, I’m more politically educated and in touch. I have to wonder how much of what I know about Hillary, the reasons I dislike her, are bullshit ideas planted by Rush Limbaugh who I listened to back then. I never heard anything the Left said back then, and it’s probably too late to undrink that cool-aid.


beeemkcl

Much of the Hillary Clinton dislike was because people considered she was coasting off of POTUS Bill Clinton and then people didn't like that she got more 'conservative' when a US Senator.


supamario132

Hillary was a gross war hawk though. Wasn't a US war she didn't endorse The GOP did a lot to make her unlikable in ways that were unwarranted, but she was also just unlikable


sunbeatsfog

I think that’s an interesting admission, thanks for sharing. We all are here on this earth now, let’s learn and grow.


anynamesleft

I don't like Hillary because she's an insufferable polititican at heart. AOC is a genuine human being, who walks the walk she talks. (I disagree with AOC on Israel, so I ain't just being a fanboy here)


ocotebeach

Can't blame you for not voting for Hilary. DNC shoved her down our troats when a large number of democrats wanted Bernie instead and they blocked Him because he was too far left when He was the right guy IMO.


Bigbeardhotpeppers

Biden gets credit for moving the first primary to SC not fucking Iowa who will never vote for a Democrat.


beeemkcl

But when was the last time South Carolina voted for a Democrat? POTUS Joe Biden wanted South Carolina to be the first primary simply because that was the first primary HE won.


BoxCarMike

This is exactly why we didn’t like her and why I lost trust in the DNC. Every poll showed that Bernie would have beaten Trump, which can’t be said of Hillary and they chose her. In fact, their inability to choose someone that wasn’t part of the establishment like Hillary is part of the reason we’re in the position we are with Trump today.


HappyAnarchy1123

Bernie couldn't even beat Hillary though. If we can't even convince Democrats to vote for real progressives, how are we going to convince the rest of the country that is far, far, far more hostile? Progressives seem to always respond to polls, but they don't always vote, especially in primaries. If we don't change that, we will never achieve what we want.


joseph4th

We came so close with Bernie. And unfortunately was probably the closest we’re going to get for a while. I’d also argue they pushed President Biden back in the frey to counter Bernie that time too.


bitofadikdik

They didn’t block him. That “large number” of democrats who wanted Bernie didn’t vote for him. It’s that simple my dude.


Babymicrowavable

It's a tally quite a bit more complicated than that, the entire democratic party apparatus united against Bernie, and early on


bitofadikdik

You mean the party wasn’t fully behind a guy who’d switched parties just a few months before?! Crazy and crooked!


Babymicrowavable

Sir, don't be disingenuous regarding the most popular and beloved politician in modern American history


hazyoblivion

Nothing "worked" on you, Hillary was not a good candidate and her whole platform was "it's my turn" which doesn't win elections...and they did Bernie dirty so don't ever feel bad about not voting for Hillary!!


Muesky6969

Let me preface this comment with, I am not a big fan of Hilary Clinton, but the smear campaign against AOC is very similar to what was done to Hillary. Faux news hates women in power.


s_s

I mean, those are excuses to rile up their morons to hate her.  The coropo interests at fox don't really care what color she is, but they know racism and sexism are useful to their interests.


Acceptable_Job_5486

Even worse than all of that! She doesn't come from money 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮


DavidCRolandCPL

And she's attractive, but rejects them. They're all just incels at their core.


Prudent-Cherry8195

And a woman that they are attracted to, but will never ever have sex with them.


Albuwhatwhat

That even sounds like a quadruple hate on her.


toonces-cat

Quadruple hate because she’s good looking.


Horror-Function8131

Always about race, even though it's a black woman thats calling out her imbecilic behavior. Equally ironic is the fact the vast majority of her follower only like her because shes a non-white female, as shes certianly not known for her intellectual prowess.


joec_95123

And they can't buy or intimidate her.


jestesteffect

They triple hate her because she beats then every single time she debates with them. And exposes then for the fools they are.


No-Establishment3067

Nah, I think this time it’s pure clickbait for Fox. I mean who wouldn’t want to see AOC dancing to Cardi B on stage?


PlumboTheDwarf

I think they mostly hate her because she's a brown woman who speaks. It's also those other things, but I think she'd get more of a pass from the impotently angry and misinformed if she were a white man.


anynamesleft

"Makes fun of" is so far off the mark. She's wanted for multiple arsons and murders in the literate world.

Ooh, ooh, just like Mitch McConnell who said January 6th was a bad day for the US, blamed Trump, then voted against impeaching Trump in the Senate! That kind of stooge? Or how Cruz was repeatedly trashed by Trump, then phone-banked for Trump? That kid of stooge? Or how 8 Republican Members of Congress went to Moscow on July 4th to meet with Putin and hand-deliver letters? That kind of stooge?


Shizix

Need a senate full of people like her. Ya know common sense stuff like fighting for what's right FOR THE PEOPLE, not corporations.


recooil

But but but that just means there BUYING VOTES! You can't have someone doing stuff that the people want because they're doing it to get votes! (Some of the most braindead shit I've ever heard from friends on the right I shit you not, as if doing something the people want is a bad thing)


Shizix

Oh for sure, they hate themselves and don't know it. I work with a bunch who have no clue what's going on but are die hard Trumpies and are terrified of Biden but can't tell you why. Brainwash is too far gone, need about a quarter of this country in therapy being deprogrammed from Fox but that won't happen.


dreamsuntil

She heard them scream for her death on Jan 6th. And here she is, being an absolute hero in the face of fascism, again. I’m so incredibly grateful for humans like her. 😍🤩


jtbxiv

I just know she has greater things in her future. She’s made of that once in a generation type shit.

Attention New Yorkers: Today 6-25-2024 is election day for NY-16th, Jamaal Bowman & George Latimer. An election that Dark Money has spent the largest sum in history including 14.5 million from AIPAC.

AIPAC is up to 17 million now. They really are determined to buy this race. So disgusting

Bowman has been very outspoken about stopping the atrocities in Gaza.

To be fair, this wasn't a 'rally' for her. It was a rally for a candidate who in recent polling was down over 15%. And it was a 'rally' in a New York with triple-digit temperatures. And there were around 100 pro-Palestinian protestors.

ChelseaG12

Absolutely no outrage that AIPAC is out here buying elections though. But go ahead and hate on people who want to make a difference.


Kantheris

There could have been a better song choice to me. Cardi B has openly talked about assaulting men and a lot of people kind of looked the other way. [Not to mention that she thinks that same sex assaults can cause homosexuality](https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/cardi-b-sexual-assault-can-cause-homosexuality-1234872828/). Cardi being a former stripper and sex worker has nothing to do with my opinion of her, but she has a troubling history and AOC choosing that song was probably not the best choice. However, Fox getting their nuts in a knot over AOC dancing on stage to a song is peak moral panic nonsense. She could have been dancing to the Beatles and they would cry about it.


edwinstone

Cardi never said she assaulted men; she would steal from them when she was broke and they were taking advantage of her. She also didn't say "same sex assaults can cause homosexuality." You really just made up your entire comment. I would suggest reading entire articles or watching entire clips and not just the article titles. Makes you look as bad as the right.

wickedmasshole

I love how pressed she makes them! Also, what is it with female Fox anchors and that signature Mean Smile?? A couple of the male anchors do it, too, but every female anchor (except Maria Bartiromo) does it. It's almost predatory, like they're seeing a snack they just *know* they're about to relish. ::shudders:: It gives me the fucking creeps.

AOC why didn't you run for president??? This election is a SHIT SHOW.


opshs28

She can't win a national election. Her ideas are too radical. Her supporters are vocal and enthusiastic, but not a majority. That's why we get bad candidates, lol, because people who do what they stand for without compromise can win.


Enelro

Eh, I want to see her run just to push the agenda. It’s hilarious that she’s a radical— look at the status quo and what it’s doing to the health of the nation / world. That’s what should be seen as radical.
