Greta Thunberg Calls For "Overthrow Of Whole Capitalist System"
Our dear Greta will be 20 years old in a couple of months. If you listen to conventional media, this adorable and super-intelligent young lady is on a mission to change the planet. Ignoring her Asperger’s, the world’s elites keep propping her up. No doubt her new book, The Climate Book, will be touted as a veritable dissertation of all things to do with climate. Of course, Greta will omit the fact that in most western countries, CO2 emissions have declined in recent years. The most significant reduction has been in the U.S. since 2004, that bastion of capitalist greed. But what about China?
How come the western world is reducing emissions, but not China? As Greta tells us, the game has nothing to do with the climate. It's about taking down the evil capitalists. The methodology uses climate as a pretext for 'clean', renewable energy. However, as I mentioned in a previous article, wind and solar power are not so 'clean'. There is so much intensive mining to extract the materials needed for wind turbines and solar panels.
That lovely red shirt that Greta is wearing more than likely contains polyester that was derived from petrol. Oops!
Remember Greta's presentation at the U.N. a few years ago, when this precocious girl stated the following:
"My message is that we'll be watching you. This is all wrong. I shouldn't be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you!
You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. And yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!"
This was the "How dare you" talk. I want to say to Greta, "How dare you scare my grandchildren into thinking that the world is going to burn up." Also, "How dare you complain about capitalism. You and your family have been beneficiaries of the most incredible system in the world that created a high standard of living with health and prosperity as never before in human history.”
However, one of the effects of modern-day capitalism has been the creation of entitled children who have no understanding of gratitude and appreciation for life.
It's been famously said,
"If you're not a communist at the age of 20, you haven't got a heart.
If you're still a communist at the age of 30, you haven't got a brain."
Let's hope that Greta finds her brain by the time she gets to 30..
Let's hope that Greta finds her brain by the time she gets to 30..
Brilliant. The absolute cherry on top.
I rather doubt she will, but she is of little consequence. It is the oligarchs and the technocrat leaders they have put in place, who seem to have become the lords and masters of the entire Western world, seemingly overnight, who are an existential threat to all freedom-loving people, to all of us who wish to nurture our children, to feed our families, to lead lives of dignity.
