She’s just the living example of why left entryism isn’t the best strategy, right?
calling it entryism gives her too much credit tbh. more like opportunism on her part to capture anti-dem energy and use it as a springboard for her congressional career. her entire career is dem establishment before and after so idk that you can say she was ever trying to do an entryism
it does indict entryism for sure though as well, in that it’s more likely to give another route to power for opportunists to recuperate left energy than it is to result in shifting a bourgeois party left

Wasn’t AOC like…recruited by some group specifically to primary an “establishment” democrat?
yeah lol, Brand New Congress recruited her to primary Crowley
doesn’t change the fact that she interned for Ted Kennedy.
e: I guess calling BNC entryist probably gives them too much credit too
