Suffragist white! Her next four years! We’ve all been on the edges of our seats waiting for someone to finally ask AOC for her thoughts on everything.
Thank you, Vanity Fair. Why won’t Republicans and conservatives leave her alone?
Stunning and brave. https://t.co/oF8DGPIDc3

The amount of Democrat idol worship from the media is transparent and revolting https://t.co/rbrbDVKNJD

“Revolting”? That sounds like something you’d say about a bogeyman.
And make no mistake, AOC is Republicans’ favorite “boogeyman” [sic] right now:
This is totally right. And I wish more people understood this – each and every time it happens.@AOC: “It’s not an accident that, every cycle, the boogeyman of the Democrats is a woman. A couple of cycles ago, it was Pelosi. Then it was Hillary, and now it’s me.”

Nothing enrages the right more than strong, smart women who wield power. Nothing. And this has been true for eternity.

Amy Coney Barrett could not be reached for comment.
But back to the idea that AOC is a bogeyman because she’s a woman (so cis-normative, AOC and Neera!). We’re gonna need AOC to show her work, because we’re not following her logic here.
Truly, sexism must be the reason Republicans made Clinton their central target in 2016, and then Pelosi in 2018 https://t.co/5JczRYZfs9

And to what extent is AOC THE bogeywoman this time around? Because she comes up, like, once a week?

Last time we checked, Republicans were a lot more focused on people not named AOC.
Huh? The right is focused on Hunter Biden, not AOC. https://t.co/dfOYLWXT62

Yep. But maybe this is just how AOC processes being out of the limelight. She has to tell herself — and try to convince everyone else — that the Right is obsessed with her.
Because if she’s not the center of attention, then what’s the point of any of this?
