Blast from the past - five years ago in Davos #GretaThunberg blocked the distribution of heavy doses of hopium alleviating the urgency to act against the overheating of the planet:
"I don’t want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. And then I want you to act.
I want you to act as you would in a crisis. I want you to act as if our house is on fire. Because it is."
Meanwhile the elites which she confronted with the imminence of #climatecatastrophe by setting their roof on fire
have decided not to extinguish but to fan the flames with carbon-intensive wars, the destruction of natural environments by extractivism, the pushing of capital productivity by fossilism and indulging in consumerism laying waste to remaining natural habitats.
Greta stood by her principles, didn't fall for the comfortable role of a fig leaf for ineffective climate policies and now supports people oppressed and exploited by #colonialism and #capitalism. Her solidarity with #Palestine was misused to accuse her of antisemitism hence climate activists who stay the course tend to widen their view and do the same.
Class war from above is the answer to a crisis which puts a heavy burden on all living beings who are condemned to inherit nothing but the deserts of irrationality and #fascism.
