They're also well-spoken. If you look into the content of what they're saying it's just kind of fluff.

This is an important point, actually. We tend to think a specific person is suddenly very aware of so many things - especially things that are trending... For fuck's sake. There are probably 6 really super famous people on this planet who give two ACTUAL shits (one of them being JK Rowling of course) without some well-paid PR team telling them what to do and say 24/7.

After they "release" their "official statement" on some very "believable platform" like Twitter or Instagram, that's it. They can go on and enjoy their days without any further annoyances. No need to think for yourself! Your self has already been thunk for, hun.

Oh but lest you forget - they are our Feminist Heroes™ who will fight for wOMeN's riGhTs! small print: for me to have 30 million.^

Side note, I do think that actors of any sex should get the money their part deserves (screen time/importance/whatnot) but let's not kid ourselves. The Hollywood women are not exactly the leaders of any movement - rather, they prefer to STOP movements (sadly of their own lips and eyes, usually).

I'm not trying to nitpick you, and I'm sure Emma Watson does speak publicly in her role. For many of the others I assume a lot of this is a statement written and released by a publicist? "Make me sound smart so they'll leave me alone please!" Maybe I am wrong about this.

I feel that way about Daniel Radcliffe. Dude just wants to make quirky movies and shows and be left alone. He doesnt seem really interested in politics. Most of his interviews he is silly, talks about his cat. And weird fans.

Then he shouldn't stick his nose in this stuff.

Yep! However as we know ignorance is no excuse... But it is very common.
