All I get from this is how Greta is putting us all to shame.
She’s fighting an unwinnable fight in the face of obvious defeat … a literal David and Goliath confrontation (and this time there will be no divine intervention) yet she chooses to jump into the fight anyway.
GOP always pretend they could do the same but would only ever cower and scatter like cockroaches at the first sight of danger.
I’m genuinely afraid for her life. She’s throwing herself into a situation where the last people who tried got bombed. The Reich wing of the world would love to see her killed and I honestly think the vast majority of us would shrug it off instead of riot. :(
Not even just Israel. Saudi Arabia attacked the US on 9/11 as the declassified documents that Obama released showed, and the US proceeded to go to war with two unrelated countries instead, and the US is still allied with Saudi Arabia. Hell, nobody even talked about it on mainstream news, and the public seems to have completely forgotten about it.
She’s doing what she’s been doing for the last several years. She is using the brand name recognition that the right-wing nutters have given her through their vitriol and using it to highlight whatever cause she desires to make people pay attention to.
In a very real sense they have turned her into a powerful media weapon for progressive and climate change causes. Because everywhere she goes she gets ink.
You see he wasn’t actually liberal. He was kissing up to the people who buy his cars. He’s not interested in actual politics or policy he just wants to fuck with regulations to be able to do what he wants with his companies without any restrictions from our government. That is was and always will be the actual purpose of DOGE.
I realized what a POS he is right during the pandemic when he had absolute fucking meltdowns about not being able to force his workers into his factories to build his fucking cars while everybody was dying from the virus in the first few months after it started rampaging across the globe.
Not sure why but as I read your post I concluded in my head that it kind of makes sense because the only convictions they have, if it can even be called that, is egocentric, while hers are principled and selfless.
It’s strange how people who hate capitalism and rich people love Greta, a millionaire who inherited extreme wealth and has never had to work a day in her life.
Conservatives and centrists are welcome just try and keep it civil :)
Was I uncivil in what I said? You’re definitely being uncivil. I’m not “super right wing” and I’m definitely not “trolling”. I’m here for a discussion, clearly unlike you.
Lying to smear a role model is uncivil, as is whataboutism.
Not that it’s going to stop you from spreading disinformation to suit your agenda, but just to set the record straight:
Contrary to the rampant online rumors, Greta Thunberg’s net worth is estimated to be $100,000 as of 2025. Unlike many public figures, Thunberg does not profit from her activism. She has made it clear multiple times that any earnings from her book sales or speeches go directly to charity.
One particularly popular yet unfounded rumor is that she is set to inherit $10 million from her parents, opera singer Malena Ernman and actor Svante Thunberg. However, Swedish income tax records—which are publicly available—show that her parents are not millionaires. While they may be considered comfortably upper-middle class, their wealth has been grossly exaggerated by misinformation campaigns.
FYI, FreedomAdvocate is a prolific fascistic sealion. Their MO is stringing people along with bad faith arguments in an attempt to waste their time. You’re better off ignoring them and reporting where appropriate.
That’s alright, I figured that I would lay out some facts (some of which people genuinely wanting to know more might not be aware of) while making fun of the fascist and THEN report all the disinformation, so that’s what I did.
Thanks for the heads up, though, untimely as it may be 😁🤜
Lmao my comment got removed for “incivility” (what was uncivil about it? Genuine question, all I did was literally just pointed out what the dude would- and did- do, and he’s still here, so…)
Am I the only one finding it SUS that the only mod for a “progressive politics” community is a dude named ‘TokenBoomer’ lmao.
Cool, there are dozens of other sources confirming the “rumour” that she comes from wealth. I’m not sure “chemical city paper” is the source of truth you think it is lol.
Who tf cares if she was born to a wealthy family? Do you advocate for all billionaire children to be shot and killed? All billionaire fetuses to be aborted? Rich people themselves to be spayed and neutered? If so, that’s a whole different and insane conversation.
This girl has worked hard, tirelessly, through death threats and literal bombs, against fucking genocidal huge countries, for what she believes. Why in the everloving fuck should it matter if she comes from wealth? Every one of your comments here shows that pieces of shit are not defined by income level.
Let’s discuss. Who’s a better human being: you vs the woman that chooses to put her life in danger for others despite being extremely wealthy and not needing to work?
It has everything to do with the fact that you’re a sheltered software engineer cis man that hasn’t had to have a principled stance in your entire life and would prefer to stay comfortable in your bubble propping up a system of oppression because you yourself are not negatively impacted by it - so you choose to slag off people who are actually trying to do something by being a keyboard warrior and arguing with people online - the true definition of a freedom fighter…
Well, you’re equating her with the billionaires that we all despise. I’m trying to see how despicable you find her or to understand why her wealth is relevant and not her actions.
Since what you say is a lie, no it’s not strange at all. Her parents are upper middle class her own net worth is estimated at 100k. Your words are hollow.

She knows this. She’s not dumb. I assume her hope is that her death will enrage people enough to do something. That her death will matter.
I hope it will too.
Israel has murdered US citizens. And faced literally no consequences whatsoever. And that was under Biden.
Not even just Israel. Saudi Arabia attacked the US on 9/11 as the declassified documents that Obama released showed, and the US proceeded to go to war with two unrelated countries instead, and the US is still allied with Saudi Arabia. Hell, nobody even talked about it on mainstream news, and the public seems to have completely forgotten about it.
She has already done this in the past, and she got drone bombed then too.
She’s doing what she’s been doing for the last several years. She is using the brand name recognition that the right-wing nutters have given her through their vitriol and using it to highlight whatever cause she desires to make people pay attention to.

She’s been doing it so long that Elon was liberal and they gave her a car to use for a US tour.
You see he wasn’t actually liberal. He was kissing up to the people who buy his cars. He’s not interested in actual politics or policy he just wants to fuck with regulations to be able to do what he wants with his companies without any restrictions from our government.

They have convictions, felonies mostly.
Dude, I have to go work tomorrow. I don’t have time to fight Goliath. Maybe she can conjure money to live off out of air, but I can’t.
It’s strange how people who hate capitalism and rich people love Greta, a millionaire who inherited extreme wealth and has never had to work a day in her life.
Yep. Never HAD to work a day in her life and has CHOSEN to work tirelessly for a decade advocating for a better world.
“Work”
name a more iconic duo than an “anti-capitalist” and the capitalistic definition of the word work…
edit: oh shit sorry you’re actually a pro-capitalist - that’s a rare breed - oh well hope you enjoy “working” till you die for the glory of Elon 🥹
Freedom what now?

Be careful, TokenBoomer (the mod here) apparently removes comments like this for ‘incivility.’

Let me guess: sources such as Breitbart, Faux News, OANN, and Newsmax?
Toilet paper contains more reliable information than such far right propaganda outlets.
“Chemical City Papers” with no sources to back up their claims are definitely reliable sources of information though, right?
Their source
Just give it a rest. It’s obvious that you’re spreading unfounded rumors because you don’t like her activism.

Straw man argument. 10 yard penalty. Go sit in the corner for 5 minutes.
Well most leftists are generally anti-genocide, as is Greta in this case, so their interests are aligned here. Does that clear it up for you?
