AOC is proof that no matter how successful or capable you are, some people will only recognize where you started. Politics aside, she was elected by her people to represent them. But critics will only see her as a bartender.

That’s a painful reality for women of color, and women in general. Western society is so trained to think that women are subservient to men and it’s disgusting. I look at all the hate from all angles being thrown at AOC, Kamala Harris and Ihan Omar as examples.

Exactly. And women don't come out on top in so many ways. Not getting compensated for what you work for is the default. If we win, we're a bitch or weirdly competitive ("she'll do ANYTHING for X"). If we're loud about disrespect/harassment, then we're "difficult to work with".
