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.

TBH I wish I heard less about the squad.

Same on hearing less about them.

But I feel like putting that on most of the people here isn’t really justified.

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.

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.

Well, I never said most people were guilty, just that it’s a thing. So I’m not sure what the disagreement is here.
