Well I'll be goddamned. I genuinely didn't think she'd ever have it in her to get even this far.
Well, the autism is a bit of a boost in actually getting to the root of the problem rather than getting stuck in the neurotypical bounds of respectability and milque toast solutions.

Many such cases
Step into the doctors' office please
Malala became the worst sellout and Greta became an actual activist.
I never thought that would be the case, but hindsight is 20/20.
Wait what happened with Malala?
She turned out to be a communist
Other way around. She started out as a communist, and used her platform for promoting that for some time, but she ended up submitting herself to the consultancy insustrial complex so now she's just an NGO ghoul.
idk who she is ,how did she sell out ?
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.
that is what I am sayin
no serious communist" is against righteous national liberation movemnets
100%.
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.
Pakistani, she and her dad made a speech at Trot IMT's Pakistan branch before the Taliban incident. Yep, the Western elites dropped her fast when she was more radical than they liked, last I heard she was studying in the West?
She went to Oxford, on a scholarship I believe.
And yes, she sold out bc over the years she's shown herself to be a liberal that uses NGOs and pretty much hasn't been heard of at protests.
The key is this: Pakistanis all over twitter and TikTok have been skeptical of her since she was first known.
