“I have lots of progressive ideas in my head, I’m actually immune to propaganda despite my actual behavior that is entirely consistent with capitalist ideology”
AOC buying a Tesla isn’t “weird” or “anti-socialist”, rationally navigating marketplaces to find loopholes is within the ideological framework of being a technocratic PMC under neoliberalism. The entire idea of ‘tax rebates for electric vehicles’ is probably one of Biden’s main accomplishments lol
AOC buying a Tesla is completely on brand for her art house progressive PMC aesthetics and values, which she has demonstrated again and again. I’d have been more surprised if she had bought an actually good hybrid like a RAV4.
