I haven't seen anyone here post about this yet, but some online leftists picked up on a little piece of AOC's history that has gone under everyone's radar until recently; after her graduation in 2011 but before her ascendency to Congress in 2018, she used to work for a venture capitalist firm called GAGEis (also known as Gage Strategies) owned by 2 Israeli-Americans where she actively engaged in and promoted entrepreneurial activities.

While under this tutelage, she also founded HER OWN ENTERPRISE called the Brook Avenue Press, which according to AOC's biography in Boston University that is still publicly available, is "a social enterprise dedicated to providing relevant educational products to children and parents in urban areas.”. I'll let you guys decide what the "educational products" entails.

The Times of Israel actually wrote an article about this back in 2020 as well.

Neither of these career positions are mentioned in AOC's official biography in the US House of Representatives website.

Let this be the final nail in the coffin for AOC's "leftist" veneer, and a lesson to all of you here that any Democrat that ever tries to pose as a "Democratic Socialist", that fights for the working people, should be viewed with EXTREME scepticism and not the naive optimism that many on this site and its predecessor subreddit have perpetuated for years. Zohran Mamdani included.
