A cute women that knows what she wants?
Silence her!
Her appearance has nothing to do with this.
i follow her, she's awesome and I really hope she wins.
but it would be false to claim her youth and aesthetic don't help her charisma.
it does, but that doesn't mean she isn't serious or competent.
Hope she wins, we need her and people like her.
helps and hurts. wish I was in her geography as I would vote for her.
doesn't really hurt her. just bigots will insult her for being pretty, or if she wasn't, they would insult her for not being pretty. they'll always use misogyny against any woman who's against them.
You don't think being a young woman has ANY negative affect on being elected in the USA?
i meant that conservatives are going to hate her no matter what.
She could be a 60 year old grandma, and they'll use that against her.
if course she has an uphill battle.
She should not win. My district is not lacking in leftists, and deserves someone who lives in and actually pays attention to the community.
She obviously pays attention to the community, she got thrown to the ground and got hit in the face doing so.
Literally no. She cares about immigrants. She doesn't care about the community specifically, at all. And doesn't even care enough to live there. We don't need to go from someone who responds to the community to someone who doesn't even care to check the communities needs before doing unnecessary giveaways
That explains it, "She cares about immigrants"
hello, are you aware that immigrants are part of the community? ones who are being kidnapped by the state? which she is fighting? maybe it is you who isn't paying attention to the community.
you outed yourself as a racist, by "community" do you mean white people only?
instead of raising money for ads, she is using it to feed the people in her district.
if that isn't something who pays attention to the community, I don't know what you want
No, she doesn't pay attention. She did free give aways for things already fully provided to those in need. That's not paying attention, not doing research.
Got any sources that ain't your local fox "news"?
I don't watch fox news. Her giveaways of backpacks and school supplies were fully supplied in Evanston already.
To her opponents, appearance is basically the whole of her worth.
They understand in the current media environment that attention is power and attractive people get attention
Kat made a post on Bluesky once where she showed a tweet by a Republican who was asking people to "stop posting photos of [Kat] when they attack her because she's genuinely attractive and that makes the attack not land" or something along those lines. I wish I'd saved it. It was a solid self-burn.
That Republican was basically afraid that Kat would steal male GOP votes simply by looking good lol
She is cute af on that real though
I mean, it kinda does. The fact that she is young, attractive, and media savvy means that people will pay more attention to her (not saying that's good, just that it's how our society works). The more attention she gets, the more of a threat she is to the regime, which is why the they're trying to prosecute her for getting assaulted by ICE.
Aren't you a smart one
You haven't been paying attention to the Republicans have you.
