::::::::Left-wing is a fairly broad description that provides little information for readers. Referring to AOC as a Democrat already tells us that she is to the left of the U.S. center, if that is the definition of left-wing in the U.S. Best leave it out.
::::::::Comparing her with MTG is a false balance. In France, AOC would probably be in the center-left Socialist Party, while MTG would be in the far right National Rally. [[User:The Four Deuces|TFD]] ([[User talk:The Four Deuces|talk]]) 16:38, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
:She is on the right-wing of an organization that was the [[Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee|"Centrist" faction]] of the historic [[Socialist Party of America]]. While the majority of the DSA has committed itself to leaving the Democratic Party at some indeterminate time, AOC does not appear to share this position. The DSA also recently [https://www.dsausa.org/statements/status-of-dsa-national-endorsement-for-rep-ocasio-cortez/ rescinded its endorsement] of her due to her positions on Israel/Palestine.
:The late congressman [[Ron Dellums]] was a member and vice-chair of the DSA and he is not labelled as "left-wing" in the introduction of his article. He is described as a socialist in the 2nd paragraph. That AOC has called herself a Democratic Socialist and joined DSA is easily verifiable, that this makes her left-wing or far-left is much more subjective. See this [https://www.dsausa.org/democratic-left/ocasio-cortez-is-committed-to-the-democratic-party-not-dsa/ article by another DSA member] describing her as moving increasingly away from left-wing positions.
