Dear comrade, I am a Mexican communist (Marxist-Leninist, not “commie”), who currently continues to live in Mexico, specifically in the misnamed “hot zone” territory that is heavily disputed by cartels. I am an environmental engineer, with studies and knowledge in software development; constantly confronting governments and armed groups for defending our rights to a more just and ecologically sustainable society, they literally slaughter us.
I not only criticize society, I fight to change it, and any of the comrades here are welcome.
Within the lemmygrad community I am an active collaborator of prolewiki in Spanish.
So in an imperialist ecoterrorist society, a neurodivergent teenage girl who speaks out against the destruction of the environment and points the finger at the imperialist exploitation perpetrated by the Global North should be mocked by leftists and alt-right climate deniers alike? What are you trying to say here?
The trivialization of what struggles? You’re not clarifying your stance at all, you’re just making fun of some girl. (with the same rhetoric the right wing uses to trivialize climate crisis activism)
I think the best way to convince Greta to join us is to suggest her to read about ecosocialism. Keep in mind that she has been doing climate activism since she was very young and maybe this kind of ideology fits her thinking better than a more “industrialist” and orthodox socialism.
Having such a famous figure on our side could raise awareness among many young people in the West who are closer to green capitalism than to ecosocialism.
This is what she said according to her twitter but she does seem to be heavily implying that radicalization is the way forward. This will hopefully radicalize more of her followers.
But importantly is that she has awareness and puts this stuff into practice. That is almost more important than reading books, and it’s becoming difficult for any aware person to ignore the accomplishments of socialist projects. The mistake is really the assumption that socialism and communism has failed, when they are in fact barely starting to gain momentum. All those socialists of the 20th Century are nothing compared to the future. These right-wing figures hate “communism” for a reason, and that is because revolution spreads too quickly. One country turns socialist and all their neighbors get curious. The success of China pushing into the next few decades is undeniable.
I wouldn’t worry so much about an actual activist. As long as people continue to read, organize, and put into practice, there will always be socialist-sympathetic individuals.
I just hope that time does not involve her being slowly poisoned by all the ghouls surely trying to surround her and keep her contained in liberalism, or at least in anticommunist leftism.
Kanye went from hating George W. Bush to…this…and I’m sure the hotep shit started with someone in his circle of trust.
She’s also making really based point in the statement she made, where she says that the current world is a result of centuries of colonialism, imperialism and oppression of people and planet.
She further says that we should not aim to go back to ‘normal’ since normal is an extreme system with the sole purpose of reaching max profits on a short term basis, disregarding human rights.
It seems she’s not just the talk anymore and actually switch to socialist rhetoric.

This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
If you haven’t already found it, this GitHub page is an excellent collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics, made by @dessalines and others.
here’s hoping she keeps spreading the word…
Reactionary outlets are furious
MF was an ADHD icon for Lib me, since I’m really into environmental conservation. Its nice to see we both got radicalized into Communism.
Even when she had lib takes she was still more based than I ever was at her age.
What a little champ 🏆

Man I guess I should quit being a commie as well, living in Belgium 💁 you criticize society yet you live in it, curious

For those downvote, it’s obvious it is a fake picture. What matters is the message it conveys.
do you understand the meaning of meme? mmm…
People have food, others do not. How is that Greta’s personal responsibility?
Should we all die of hunger in solidarity?
Isn’t the problem imperialism? That we keep those countries poor and in a state of chaos to better exploit their very profitable natural resources?
More than anything, it is the representation of eco-capitalism made in the West that has turned this girl into a meme.
God, you’re taking the picture too literally.

Precisely the trivialization of these struggles.

Laugh at a person? Sure others of us are in real struggles. Believe what you want. greetings comrade.
this is a fake photo. the original has a forest out the window. please don’t spread misinformation, that isn’t helpful to anyone.
edit: this fake image was shared by Bolsonaro’s son, so…yknow, pay attention to where things come from.
Ayo??? Greta radicalization tankie arc??? 😳😳😳
Damn, I may have been wrong about her and I am happy about it. Keep going left Greta!

She should read about Marx’s environmentalist tendencies
Yeah, I agree with you.

=(
Too bad she closes with an Orwell like statement. But still, monumentally better than being a puppet of the ruling class.

To be fair, she might feel “forced” to say that so people won’t accuse her of being a communist or that she won’t be stalked by intelligence services.
Give her time.
I just hope that time does not involve her being slowly poisoned by all the ghouls surely trying to surround her and keep her contained in liberalism, or at least in anticommunist leftism.
