As opposed to to signalling opposition of the "cannibalize the palestinians" act that still would have passed. It's definetly an AOC cringe compliation worthy moment but that's all it is, idk why people are acting like it's the end of the world becuase of it.
The answer is Bowman comparatively never gets any press, so no one cares about him. Electoral politics are a media circus. :shrug-outta-hecks:
Are the reasons AOC gets more press at least in part sexist? Yeah, probably. But I feel like putting that on most of the people here isn't really justified.
It's not immune, that's why I said most. I spent like half of yesterday in a struggle session over sexist language. However, most of the posters here do know better, as evidenced by the votes on comments arguing about it.
It definitely factors in, but the primary reason is IMO name recognition/media circus.
Because we have moral indignation over apartheid and all who enable it or refuse to stand by their supposed principles. No one thinks its the end of the world, we just think it was cowardly. you are acting like people being disgusted are acting like its the end of the world IS the end of the fucking world

Compare the outcry about AOC's "present" versus Jamaal Bowman's "yes" and you'll start finding answers.

TBH I wish I heard less about the squad.
Same on hearing less about them.
This is an offshoot of reddit and exists in the internet, generally. It is Hexberican Exceptionalism :very-smart: to think that this site is immune.

Well, I never said most people were guilty, just that it's a thing. So I'm not sure what the disagreement is here.
I just disagree with the characterisation of
because it implies the main cause is sexism. But I guess we do agree. :shrug-outta-hecks:
