The death of liberal-conservatism, and the rising potential for revolution. Greta Thunberg’s path toward radicalization and her potential as a revolutionary leader.
Thanks for this Antonio. The difference between the liberal left and the radical left is going to become more and more important as we get into this century.
I also appreciate the way your looking for the revolutionary hope in a figure like Greta rather than focussing on all the ways her celebrity is flawed. I feel moved by the possibility that she and the generation she has been plucked in front of are really connecting with the reality of this situation.
It will be interesting to see if Ms. Greta will be the 'One' as the western world certainly needs someone like her to rally around. The bigger question will be, will the older generations let her live long enough to make a difference? Young people like her have a way of encountering resistance from powerful sources with money enough to buy "solutions'.
Greta is a tool of the deep state. Think about the funding required to move, feed and house here at all these events. There are several examples of here being 'arrested' by police -most recent one in Australia I think -where it's a staged photo opp. Compare/contrast her with Edward Snowdon who feld for his life. That is my litmus test on whether or not someone is a credible threat.
Have you by any chance followed the discourse on Greta in Germany. The title page of Tuesdays 14.11. TAZ, a self-proclaimed leftist newspaper, read: Persona non Greta? And the following text was the lead: https://taz.de/Greta-Thunberg-und-der-Nahostkonflikt/!5969485/
