Well, interest in Greta has reduced in general. She was a prominent figure in climate protests, but not so much anymore.

Because she went from a cute kid calling attention to a scientific fact, to an activist that calls out the evils of empire.

Yeah, because Western corporate media—including social media—are the mediators, and they don’t want to platform anti-capitalists or anti-imperialists, and she’s become both.

Really? She's all over my feeds, regularly discussed in local environmenralist orgs, etc. Perhaps even more than she was a couple years ago. I think we live in different bubbles.
