Greta Thunberg's name will be penned next to Malcolm X and Mahatma Gandhi in the history books of the future.

Implying Greta wasn't anticapitalist or antiimp before the Gaza war. Implying that "system change, not climate change" wasn't one of the core chants in protests.

Why do you attack the OP this way? Do you really think that they are maliciously trying to hide away Greta's politics?

Honestly I think half of "leftists" you see online are just right wingers yelling in bad faith to create a rift. They know we are so ideological and ready to cancel each other if we fail to meet our purity tests that they just need to toss in a match to make the left crumble.

Aside, aperantly Christianity is making a comeback with Gen Z, and one theory is that at least Christianity has an element of forgiveness (turn the other cheek), where atheists who base their morals on secular philosophy can become very harsh in their criticism and once someone is out, they are out. I can absolutely see the appeal of this change for the youth. I only say this as sometimes we do need to look in the mirror. If we are so smart, why do we always lose?

Of course this is the Internet where we kinda just bring out the worst in people.

Because governments were only using her for greenwashing and control public opinion.

Seek the news sites telling the truth, not handing you what advertisers will pay for.

Is that when the Venn diagrams kiss?
