no such thing as "the voiceless"

i hate this term "the voiceless". such liberal garbage. so devoid of context, political economy, class struggle. i think the concept exists for liberals to give themselves something to do-- worry about the voiceless, advocate for the voiceless, defend the voiceless, bleh.

arundhati roy, who has rejected the often-bestowed title voice of the voiceless put it plainly:

we know, of course, there's really no such thing as "the voiceless". there are only the deliberately silenced, the preferably unheard.

claro. people speak for themselves...
