Greta Thunberg could have, by now, carved out a very comfortable life for herself as a liberal grifter-celebrity offering platitudes about personal responsibility at Davos. Instead she connected the dots between ecocide, capital, and empire, aiming squarely at the heart of the beast. And now fresh out of captivity she downplays her own suffering to recenter the urgency of aid to the Palestinian people. No wonder she’s hated by the fascist+lib coalition that rules this world.

when she made that statement about how she could talk about the abuse she faced but the media should instead focus on the real issue which is the ongoing genocide, i was somehow immediately reminded of someone i never even thought about after i first heard about her: that loser swimmer that tied for fucking 5th or whatever with a trans woman and went on a whole media tour crying about it and is probably still doing it right now if anyone is still listening.
god bless greta. we need more people like her.
