a decade after her death, shitlibs will sanitise her, chop off a couple sound bites, and say she always agreed with them. then forget everything she stood for.

[–] Grunt4019@lemm.ee 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just like what they did to MLK.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 16 points 2 weeks ago

you could pay half the country with the energy of MLK rolling in his grave.

i imagine, someone like Greta, a couple thousand years ago would have been considered a prophet.

Anyone with a bumper sticker calling for the rape of someone, especially a minor, should be anal raped themselves just to make sure they know what they're wishing for.

I'll die on this hill.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

emotionally, I agree, but I think we shouldn't have a mechanism to implement anal rape onto the public.

Fair enough, we can abolish prisons after dealing with the bumper sticker pedos.

Nah, fed through a woodchipper feet first.

She'll be a t-shirt poster soon enough.

Edit: saying that with all respect to her, just saying that her image will be used and abused to death soon enough

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

she's one iconic picture away to be commercialised like Ché

If you go check out conservative communities on the internet, you’ll find and endless stream of men talking about sexual violence towards Greta. It’s really disturbing and gives you an idea of how their brain works.

So here is a trick, when you hear about people saying that they are on the left but are tired of hearing about her, you can tell they are full of shit. Why? Because actual media will report on her actions because she has celebrity activist status. But they stop when the events stop. Conservatives media will harp on her in a creepy way for months without any pushing. Am radio will drop her name like they blame Obama for covid.

High school thinking would dictate that they were attracted to her from the get-go. As in when she was 16. I've seen too much evidence to not just put that thought to bed. These folks project like a flashlight.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 weeks ago

I've seen some absolutly crazy shit from Alberta consevatives a couple of years ago. Basically bumper stickers calling for the rape of a 16 years old. And these people think of themself as representative of familly values and freedom of speech. We got to get ready to throw some punches folks, some people are beyond saving.

[–] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 20 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

She kinda is the Sophie of this Generation.

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

No not even close. I mean no disrespect to Greta nor do I want to diminish her accomplishments in any way. The risk at which she does this is however incomparable to the Scholl siblings. There has never been the risk of a death sentence or anything remotely close to that.

[–] groet@feddit.org 30 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

There is a high chance she will be killed by Israel for her attempt at helping Palestine.

Greta is also choosing to do this. She has ever, chance to ... just not do it. Sofi had no say in her situation.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 3 points 2 weeks ago

I mean I will agree that the chance for that is bigger than zero, but it would be so freaking dumb to do. Many European countries have started to rethink their ties to Israel. They are evil, but not that stupid.

Eehhh, she's on a boat sailing to deliver supplies to Gaza. Do you know what Israelis do to people that do this? They shoot at government representatives from allied countries that come to observe, they murder journalists for breakfast, and there is an extremely realistic chance she will be murdered or maimed as the Israeli army doesn't give a shit about who she is or what she's about to do. They'll murder her and then come up with some bullshit story about how violent she was.

This is an army that slaughtered ambulance workers that came to a call to help. A boy who was captured before saw this and was murdered only days after as the ambulance thing became a bit of a news problem. This is an army of psychopaths that don't give a shit.

To say that there isn't a death sentence at the end of this trip is disingenuous.

[–] HasturInYellow@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

I have been very worried for years now that she will meet the same fate. I hope I'm wrong.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I hope all our politicians are paying attention. That's how you solve problems and earn admiration. I'm sure everyone of our politicians can swim just fine. But do they got the balls to confront chaos to save people in need?

They neither have the balls nor any desire. Our leaders are, to a one, weak men and women seeking only to shove as much money in their pockets as possible before their hopefully swift and "un"timely guillotine-enabled deaths.

Wow this comment section is a dumpster fire.

Peace out ✌️
