It’s no secret that people who seek political power usually have big egos, but AOC’s level of self-absorption is truly impressive. She doesn’t believe any criticism of her is legitimate because her detractors are blinded by her hotness. Critics are either hopelessly in love with her or intensely jealous. She is the Capitol Hill version of Regina George, who cries “Why are you so obsessed with me?” when presented with evidence that she was a bad friend to Janice Ian. Really, she is obsessed with herself.

You don’t have to look far to see other leftist female politicos reveling in their selfishness. Randi Weingarten used the pandemic as a means to rake in extra benefits for teacher’s unions, treating innocent children like incubators of death so her employees could work from home and collect emergency pay. A doctor recently bragged on Twitter that she only ordered delivery during the pandemic, failing to acknowledge that she was merely outsourcing her risk of contracting the virus to working-class Americans who couldn’t afford to stay home. Georgetown University’s chief public health official shut down indoor events and gyms for students, declaring it “unsafe,” but had no problem attending an event with her friend at the Kennedy Center.

Narcissism used to be considered a personality flaw. Now, when it is displayed by women, feminists celebrate.
