Nah. She just doesn't really have anything to say. "Carbon bad" isn't really a message in 2025.
She's an activist in that she gets arrested a lot but there's plenty of people really achieving things that don't have the social media clout she does.
She also doesn't have any special credibility. Why would you interview a serial protester when you could interview an expert.
As an aside I've learned that any thing less than breathless support for her on lemmy will earn a deluge of downvotes. So have at me dweebs - express your support for this tapped out child star with your spiciest downvote.
Whining about downvotes? That's a downvote.
Hah. Not whining at all. Just acknowledging that my opinion on this is not a popular one, while antagonising the 14 year olds who admire her.
I'm 45 and I'm inclined to agree with most of what she says.
51 and same, but maybe I'm just naive in wanting a world where my future grandchildren might be able to see a field full of fireflies once again.
I didn't say I don't agree with her. I'm saying she doesn't have any special credibility. I'd rather hear from an expert on climate change and mitigation thanks.
