Edited later to add:
The original press release seems to be gone now, but here is what is claimed to be the revised release, and an article on the same topic.

You're viewing a single thread.
The reason you don't hear about Greta anymore is because she didn't let her conscience stop at climate change. She's a left wing activist fighting for social justice in all things.
The rich will mold her image in history the same way they did for MLK, leaving out all the aspects of her politics that make them squirm.
Same reason we immortalized the child version of Helen Keller. Though she lived to 87.
Or the Diary of Ann Frank. Easier to control the narrative around children than to discuss the politics of grown adults.
Well, she was murdered in the Holocaust a year after she wrote. So it makes sense that's how we remember her. We don't know what she may have been like as an adult. She was a cool ass kid, facing annihilation by total evil.
No wonder they teach it in schools.
A holocaust denier or Nazi might claim that her death was due to natural causes. Ignoring that the reason why she got typhus is due to the horrid conditions in the camp and her lack of treatment in it.
Sick fucks.
A holocaust denier or Nazi
There is a difference?
Some Nazis take deep pride in the slaughter of others. They believe in the Vae victis philosophy of having absolutely no rules of conduct other than 'I am the last man standing and you are dead' idea.
Could you elaborate?
I never realized that, and it is kind of messed up. Although I suppose the main thing that happened for her happened as a child, the story of how she came to understand that words had meaning, starting with "water." I suppose I don't hardly know anything about the rest of her life.
Happily, when Helen was a young woman she assumed blindness to be a misfortune. A cruel test from God that nobody could control. Then she was appointed to a body that advocated for the affairs of the blind. And was faced with the stark reality that much of the blindness in the world was caused by people. Industrial accidents and chemical exposures often caused by the greed and selfishness of the owning class and the minimal protection afforded to citizens who didn't merit the governments protection. So she joined the wobblies, the IWW.
From which she soon became one of the most radical members.
In her own words from an interview with Barbara Bindley with the New York tribune, 1915
"What are you committed to - education or revolution?"
"Revolution." She answered decisively. "We can't have education without revolution. We have tried peace education for 1900 years and it has failed. Let us try revolution and see what it will do now."
"I am not for peace at all hazards. I regret this war, but I never regretted the blood of the thousands spilled during the French Revolution. And the workers are learning how to stand alone. They are learning a lesson they will apply to their own good out in the trenches. Generals testify to the splendid initiative the workers in the trenches take. If they can do that for their masters you can be sure they will do that for themselves when they have taken matters into their own hands."
"Don't forget the workers are getting their discipline in the trenches," Miss Keller continued. "They are acquiring the will to combat."
And thus her statue
High quality post. Thanks.
I assume they're referring to her being an outspoken socialist as an adult.
The thing than never fails to make me laugh are "fuck greta" stickers on cars or bikes. Especially if it's a little VW golf.
Conscience*
Lol, early morning swipe typing.
She’s a nationalist now. That’s not left wing.
Could you elaborate what you mean by that?
She’s going on protests together with violent Palestinian nationalists and Islamist nationalists.
No. They're not. She's not. But go ahead and keep getting your news from the bullshit factories.
She participated in a protest in Berlin a few days ago that attacked police, journalists, and a pro peaceful coexistence counter protest. The protest was organized by extremist groups as well.
What's your opinion on the current multiple military actions in Palestine and Lebanon? I think that might shed some light on your current bias.
They're very pro Israel fyi
Yes, I assumed as much. However I like to hear them say it. I did receive a response as a DM. It was boilerplate Zionist talking points.
