Ocasio-Cortez spent at least $4.2 million on Facebook ads in 2019-2020. Almost all these ads simply solicit further donations in a kind of fundraising ouroboros. Her criticism of Facebook could carry more moral weight (at no cost to her!) if she didn't give them so much money.https://twitter.com/JohnHendel/status/1349369497145241605 …

It's also revealing to look at the content of the Facebook ads AOC runs. These aren't attempts to carve our an identity in the face of attacks. It's just pitch after pitch after pitch to donate money... money that gets spent on more such ads. It's not even kept for later use!

I think it's pretty clear that which of the squad has a chance and a future at the national level. As for the content: I've seen them. It's both. She's putting herself out there and building her own name-recognition and her list. It's called ambition, not hypocrisy.
