I bet Greta Thunberg makes you feel so small and insecure. Actually Greta Thunberg reminds me of the wild eyed fanatical zombies of the Hitler Youth, indoctrinated by adults.

Greta Thunberg is the poster child for white middle class privilege and the whitewashing of climate justice with her lack of race and class analysis. Thunberg portrays a white, Eurocentric narrative around climate change activism which is exclusionary to people of colour and other marginalised groups. Another well off white girl who wants to change the world. Haven't we seen enough of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you objectively assess her knowledge? Do you accept all her views and opinions as correct? Apart from usual personal insults we haven't heard any of your arguments here.

I'm scared that her white middle class privilege is destroying the planet, yes. She's a lot richer and has advantages which the majority of the working class, especially people of colour and other marginalised groups, don't have.

We need to act and we need to find someone pushing REASONABLE actions. Which unfortunately most of the activists don't do.

Which unfortunately most of the activists don't do. why are we blaming the protesters for the lack of action? action can only come from those with the power to enact: Governments, councils, etc. Edited October 17, 2019 by ads36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
