AOC and Juan Peron

I like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and don't understand why the far-right is obsessed with demonizing her, but I was amused that she reasonably got in trouble with progressives for romanticizing Eva Peron. Donald Trump apparently compared her to Peron as portrayed in the musical, and she responded with two tweets quoting her. Progressives were reasonably appalled. Opinion is divided on her degree of complicity, but there is consensus that the Peron regime aided Nazis. As the Washington Post stated:

One thing is for sure, though: her husband, former Argentine president Juan Perón, most definitely aided and abetted Nazis, including Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the Holocaust, and Josef Mengele, who performed horrifying medical experiments on Jews in the camps.

Oh well, I think David Byrne wrote a disco-pop musical about Imelda Marcos, so I guess some non-historians like to romanticize such repressive, authoritarian regimes.
