I read somewhere that mainstream media stopped valorizing Greta Thunberg the minute she started connecting climate change to imperialism. Honestly, I thought she had just opted for a more private way of life or something. But nah, they want her to shut up.

The #shítstem hates her. She has got all my sympathy and I will speak in favour of her. Clear perception is a rare thing.

They want her to shut up because she's right, and they hate that. Why do you think the first thing anyone said when she gave her big "How Dare You" speech was "Wow LoOK aT tHis dUmB Kid LOL!!1!"

Little giant Greta Thunberg! She will not remain silent, as she is also a defender of human rights. She is legally defending the massacre against the Palestinian people, its civilian population, carried out by Israel, and which is suffering an unprecedented genocide in #Gaza.

Ah, I read that she started connecting it to capitalism and that's why she got dropped. Both of which are correct.

Yeah the Republicans threatening sexual violence didn't force her to be more private, people in power realized she was connecting bigger dots so she had her spotlight taken away.
