@stux Greta is a childA. /CHILD/What did people expect her to be like "these things are bad for the planet" and then personally bulldoze them into the ground?Whoever drew this is a boomer

@luna That' true but look at the big picture. People these days get awards for 'fighting for nature and earth' but nothing happens.. I'm all for the Earth, 100% but I don't like people who are pretending to make things better but only care about the publicity

@stux You're attacking a child for telling massive cooperations to stop ruining the planet and then blame a child for said massive cooperations not doing anything?You are accusing a 16 year old autistic child of rallying against climate change for ATTENTION? What the fuck are you on about?Need I remind you that Greta, a CHILD, has been subjected to death threats, rape threats, and being photoshopped into pictures thereof as well as literal nazi propaganda.Are you fucking mental? Attention?"I'm all for the Earth" you're all for being full of shit lmaoIf you actually gave a shit you'd complain about the oil companies that refuse to do anything because they are getting unimaginably rich off of destroying the fucking planet so they can keep wiping their ass with 1000 dollar bills.

@luna @stux Also iirc Thunberg has been _very vocal_ at every award thing she has received that "sure this is an honor and all, but _fucking do something concrete you fucks_"

@stux @luna @stux @luna ascribing "attention-seeking" motives to Greta Thunberg (who has vehemently rejected awards, called attention to how this does not make things better, and explicitly agitated for concrete action) is slipping into misogynistic+ageist stereotypes.in general the unsupported claim that ecological struggle is being done 'for publicity' is a right-wing talking point tailored to deflect from what citizen movements are actually demanding and accomplishing.

@stux @luna are you able to prove your claim that Greta is "in it for the publicity"? I don't think you are

@DissidentKitty @luna @stux this is a logical fallacy. People are allowed to critique things even if they themselves are not in a position to create change. That does not make their criticism less valid.

@funnypanja @DissidentKitty @luna @stuxcorrect, only in this case the original criticism (the girl-hating comic) is assuming the fallacy.critique is valid and important even if you can't personally change things → correct"my critique that «if people critique things without being able to change them, it means they’re doing it for publicity» is valid even if I can’t change anything" → what?if the comic is allowed to discourse about Greta, Greta is allowed to discourse about climate change.

@elilla @funnypanja @luna @stux Exactly. The comic is criticizing Greta for not doing more about climate change, while the artist themselves are doing even less: they are bashing someone for trying it at all. It's naked hypocracy, pure and simple.

@funnypanja @DissidentKitty @luna @stux that reading downplays the misogynistic caricature of 'attention-seeking young girl' on the 5th panel, complete with smug smile basking under flashes. the comic at no point focus on the people who are failing to act; the pen stays on the girl.and that’s without even the context—that this was done in a situation where one particular high-profile real-life girl is frequently mobbed by adult men who claim precisely that she's doing it for publicity.

@elilla @funnypanja @DissidentKitty @luna @stux I don't agree that this is misogyny. If Greta had been a boy, they would have made the same effort to tarnish their reputation by painting them as smug, proud and arrogant.
