Tired of her yet? Us, too. Really.

In this video, Aliza Shvarts talks about feminism, expression and freedom of speech. At one point, she mentions the “right of your own selfhood. We’re all people. We all have interior spaces in our mind.” She also mentions how having the right to “say what you want to say” is useless if one does not know what one wants to say.

Hey, that sounds kind of familiar…

Perhaps because we just wrote about it a few fucking minutes ago. We’ll admit, we did not dislike Aliza before. We thought she was self-absorbed and irresponsible, sure, but that describes most college students. If not most people. But after hearing her talk about things she’d like to talk about talking about… We dislike her. Intensely. “Feminism.” “Self-expression.” These are just buzzwords to her, obviously, completely devoid of meaning and without a framework on which to hold them up.

Aliza, you can get off that soapbox now. Not because you aren’t bright. Not because you don’t seem to properly acknowledge the repercussions your actions have on others, politically and personally. But because you’re abusing the power that you have, as a student at one of the world’s most lauded universities with access to resources and attention. It’s true that a lot of people have to fight to be heard. In America and all over the world. But you don’t have to fight that hard. And have probably never had to. That soapbox? Is your birthright. And you have chosen to take a shit on it.
