        She went from vague calls to action on climate to root cause analysis. The root causes didn’t like that.

        Personally I find she falls in to the category of people who protest things we already know are bad. So I think all she does is self-promote and accomplish nothing. I don’t disagree with her on any of the things she chooses to fight for, but I think she chooses the least effectual way to fight.

        Great, she’s shown the IDF are a bunch of cunts who are preventing aid reaching Gaza. We knew that. What’s changed? IMO all she’s done is move the camera lenses from Gazans onto her for a while.

        Basically because she was a child and their egos were hurt that a child would dare to criticize them.

        Older people didn’t like a kid telling them they destroyed the world through selfish ideals.

      i’ve been liking her more each time i heard of and from her. she has been and is an inspirational young woman, worthy of much more praise than i have time for now. i especially applaud her uncompromising outspokenness on the issues of the modern world, most of which are present and evident in Gaza/Palestine. i think i remember she confirmed that her personal focus has shifted from environmentalism to dismantling capitalism, and i think taking her reknown globally and using it to expose the absolute depravity of the zionist establishment is vital work. everyone should be more like greta.

        She’s a smart and pragmatic woman. Capitalism is the root cause of most of the world’s problems.

          indeed. i hope more would come to this conclusion faster, i don’t think the ecological catastrophe is going to be kinder to humans the longer we fuck with capitalism. things are only going to get worse.
