Austrian fans of AOC

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, already instantly identifiable in the US by her initials AOC, is making an impression in Europe, as well.

Rudi Anschober (@rudi_anschober), a Green Austrian politician who has been very effective in countering far-right anti-immigrant hysteria, retweeted this, which says, "wow. @aoc lays the American political system bare with a few simple questions. Check it out."

This is a retweet from Florian Klenk (@florianklenk), the chief editor of the Vienna paper FALTER, which has been doing the most effective journalistic exposures of the far-right, anti-immigrant party (FPÖ), retweeted this. The comment says, "If we want to know what the answer to the authoritarian trend to the right is - it's this."

Yes, AOC is making quite an impression!
