Both have a lot to say about a woman's condition in the spotlight.

Yes, and Amanda Palmer seems to think that being open and angry about oppression directly affecting her (which is great!) means that she doesn't have to think about oppression of anyone else. I think it's not an uncommon problem with white feminists* - thinking their oppression is the only important oppression and not realising their privilege. But when she has such a platform, it's extra disappointing.

*Including me!
