Malala became the worst sellout and Greta became an actual activist.

I never thought that would be the case, but hindsight is 20/20.

Malala

idk who she is ,how did she sell out ?

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 35 points 2 weeks ago (7 children)

She was an Afghan girl who was shot in the head by a member of the Taliban and then rescued by the US and was intended to be used for propaganda purposes, until it turned out she wasn't the average American and had an actual brain in her head; She called the US' presence in Afghanistan an occupation and revealed she's actually a communist. After that no one would talk to her.

No idea how she sold out though.

that sounds based

but I read her wiki and it says she was silent on Gaza until she was criticized by contemporarieswhich to me is something no communist would do

I appreciate that post Oct 7 many people have been radicalized in Palestine's favor, but anyone considering themselves a Communist and not being pro-Palestine is absolutely a comprador, pre or post Oct 7 alike. The genocide in Palestine has been going on for more than half a century, there has been more than enough time to see.

Yeah that's because over the last few years she became more liberal. She only focuses on education and women's rights, but through Western NGOs instead of something more revolutionary.
