MODERATORS
The system disciplines everyone is the fuller answer.
And AOC is actually a very good case study in how this happens even if you aren't explicitly bought and sold
Cause in fact she is not deeply rooted in corporate super pacs or propped up heavily by conditioned billionaire money. The popular narrative that seems to dominate.
Instead she was disciplined by the system itself and the people she has to work with inside that system and the systems of influence in and outside of the government.
So replacing her is not going to be the core fix for this problem. The next person will face the same pressures and the same disciplining forces.
If the DSA had 100 members in congress things would be different, but even then certain mechanisms of discipline will never fully go away until a more fundamental change in the relationship of the state and who it serves and how it is controlled changes.
You are right, it's more the culture of the institution she's a part of. That however doesn't excuse it. She has the chance, with the new wave to stand with the right kind of people.
Not if you vote the moderates out. I know it's more complicated than this, but trump has set a fire in motion that might not burn again very soon.
This time I saw that wyoming, Montana, Nebraska and Idaho had independents running against the republicans for the senate. They were all blue collar working class military veterans. They had close races. I am not familiar with their elections but it seems like the people want a change, but they don't want to vote for the same old guys who are supported by corporates and outside interests. This is the perfect time for change.
