Seems like a nice girl. The Daily Show clip that went viral is naive as fuck and we as a culture shouldn't be celebrating those kinds of platitudes, but I don't think she deserves to be the target of anyone's ire.

I saw the 20/20 episode last night where they interviewed some veiled Muslims who disagreed with her stance. Their perspective was actually fairly insightful. They're starting from a place where giving into your desires is weakness and working from there. But the fact that they allowed themselves to be interviewed for American TV? I'd slit their throats if I were an extremist. Just sayin'.

She's only right in a sense 180 degrees from what she intends. Yes, we "fight" others through peace in the same way we dictate through democracy and indoctrinate with education. But these aren't what she wants. She's naive to think that the world will ever exist in a state where violence isn't the guiding principle. It always has been and always will. In fact, the entire reason people like her get attention is because of the West's impotence against its own governmental violence.

implying violence is the guiding principle of our or any society

I know what you mean to say though. That violence is an ineluctable piece of statecraft, which the west practices with abandon.

But she would just advocate the end of states, being a fucking MARXIST

> It always has been and always will

good sentence wow so grammar

> In fact, the entire reason people like her get attention is because of the West's impotence against its own governmental violence

Again, you're tempting me to ignore your shitty, limp rhetorical content to make fun of how bad you are at writing. I feel like you just said that that random, arbitrary thing was the "entire reason" for her fame because you realized you were nearing the end of your pointless ramble and wanted a strong conclusion.

But it's obviously wrong. A culture mobilized against war, like the hippies and civil rights crusaders of the 60's in America, would have been even more receptive to her message. So I think it's fair to say we're obsessed with our governments' violence, but I don't think this stems from "impotence".

you're pointlessly negative, basing your argument on negation of things you see, reactions of a child asking "why?" over and over, confused at the complexity of all things

Hey, you were doing so well. She was an activist for years before she was shot. She wasn't shot to make a point - in fact, she was shot by someone who thought she was dangerous. Really, the implication that she was shot so that she wouldn't have to have a good argument is just silly. How would that even work?

>A culture mobilized against war, like the hippies and civil rights crusaders of the 60's in America, would have been even more receptive to her message.

So I'm wrong about the current impotence of the Western left because people in the 60's would have bought into here platitudes as well? Did you just give up in trying to think?

>So I think it's fair to say we're obsessed with our governments' violence, but I don't think this stems from "impotence"

But you haven't demonstrated that we're obsessed with governmental violence. You literally just said the hippies would have liked her and extrapolated more incorrectly than /sci/ with an evolutionary psychology journal.

But it is telling that you point to the 60's as some kind of beacon for countercultural politics. It certainly did a lot to end the Vietnam War and was a nice precursor to Thatcher and Reagan. So mobilized!

More of her allure is due to media-pandering than anything. Otherwise she would have been another relatively small voice drowning out in the ocean of 'activism' and 'human rights'. Had the west not intervened to air lift her to a hospital for treatment she would have been another forgotten martyr for female rights in education. Certainly she hasn't actually done anything all that significant nor worthy of advancing female rights other than being another voice saying what we all know and many want already.

Certainly brave for her circumstances but nobel peace prize winning material - not really despite being the new media darling for human rights.

Irrelevant to whether it's been awarded to the 'right' people over the years it's still a rather lofty ideal and noble prize to strive for and be recognized by. Just because a number of candidates have been 'wrong' doesn't erase the times it's been awarded to 'right' candidates.

>Alfred Nobel invented the dynamite.

Yes - but it wasn't for cruel purposes i.e. to kill other people but as a way of harnessing explosives in a more convenient and practical way such that its application and need could be utilised in better ways e.g. clearing rocks, blasting tunnels - he had the best intentions despite what it was also used for.

What? Try again. All forms of secular Islam are enforced by decree from above, all the anti-human soul-destroying forms Sharia Islam come from grassroots democratic movements.

Local democracy _always_ supports radical Islam, the more radical and the more batshit, the more it is supported by the common people.

I'm not denying anybody anything. Just calling a spade a spade. Giving yourself to Western media isn't the equivalent of getting things done like so many pseudo-feminists like to pretend it is. Too much credit is given to "voicing opinions." You subvert the strength of your argument the second you give the tool of the oppressive agent (media) respect for pittances.

She's a child. A student. Yet Capital would like you to believe she's a source of "inspiration." Middle Eastern tragedy repackaged as triumphant hero Western people envision themselves as. The message is irrelevant. If inspiration and "feminism" is what gets people to buy something, they'll plaster her face all over it. You can no-caps your way out of rational thinking all you want, but time's the revelator and you'll see the value of horseshit like this when the same story is being sold next year with a new face.

it has everything to do with voicing opinions. because those opinions are radical, subversive and

well, you're the one who thinks that those silly sentence by sentence breakdowns are an effective way of "debating" (as your standard reddit "rhetoric" wants to consider that silly practice) and not just a form of altering the meaning of the whole unit ("but syntagmas have meaning by themselves! you surely don't mean that there's such thing as different levels of discourse!") and nitpicking, so you clearly don't understand either writing or rhetoric.

This is the only thing sort of resembling an argument in your post and it's not even a sound one. Westerners jumping at the chance to hashtag women's rights and talk about how "inspiring" Malala is isn't "radical." It's mainstream. Diane Sawyer mainstream. A "radical" feminist opinion would be an analysis of the fact that anywhere women have gained traction in the West (college, Congress) has lost power within the time they gained it. Meaning women are only gaining ground in fields that Capital doesn't care about anymore. And this will keep happening the more liberal "feminists" like you keep preaching this filler bullshit and accepting the trappings of power.

Keep the no-caps Something Awful style posts coming, though, sarcasm and memespeak make for great replacements for actual arguments.

/wit/ shure wikes to tawk about deyr pwwizzes!

You kids make it sound like world leaders and brilliant folks you'll never even come near to meeting on any playing field, sit around and think to themselves "How do I DO IT?! How do I win that damned Nobel Prize?"

It's not the Olympics. It's not an Oscar. It's not a goal that one strives for to bring fame and notoriety. Unlike the Olympics that is sure to "inspire you" or the Oscars which is sure to pique your interest in whatever shitty extravaganza wins, the Nobel Prize has little to no bearing on your lives.
