    The answer is, she’s a serial protester and very successful at getting arrested.

    There are innumerable people who are actually achieving things but no one cares.

    For example, medicines sans frontiers has medical professionals in Gaza. I haven’t seen any posts about them on lemmy. Those people have been being heroes every day for many months.

    I don wonder what her actual role is on the boat. I suspect she’s head person in charge of raising awareness.

        In some ways I think the “attention” is counter productive.

        Everyone is aware of the debate around climate change or gaza. Getting views from lemmy users on YouTube videos doesn’t help anything.

        Greta is incapable of reaching the people who need to be reached. A fresh faced gen z can’t guilt boomers into changing their behaviour.

        I don’t dislike Greta specifically, but the obsession with her every utterance is ridiculous.
