Politician V. Celebrity

 The politician I have chosen is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also known as AOC. After going through her Twitter account (@AOC), I was able to see exactly who she is. Her bio says, "US Representative, NY-14 (BX and Queens). In a modern, moral, and wealthy society, no American should be too poor to live. 100 percent People-Funded, no lobbyist. She/Her." From reading her bio and seeing her various tweets and retweets, and her likes, I was able to see that she was someone who showed respect and is also an advocate for those at a disadvantage in life. Her use of 'internet slang' shows millennials and Gen Z that she is someone they can relate to and, in a way, count on to share their voice, while still being professional.

When comparing AOC to a celebrity, like Adele, she (AOC) is much more active on Twitter. Adele has not tweeted anything since 2019.
