AOC has a Trump-like cult of personality around her. There are people who think everything she says and does is pure genius, even when it completely betrays all supposed leftist principles.

All because she played Amogus once amogus

    I think it’s more than that. She positioned herself early on as an Everyman type of person who’s just like your typical millennial/zoomer with playing on stream a part of it.

    People who are new to politics see AOC as the strongest left-wing voice. Her being a woc probably also helps.
