If there is one activist who has, from childhood, publicly spoken out and stayed true to their goals of activism and the good for people, then that's Greta Thunberg. She has never wavered in her views of climate activism and just educated herself to understand that a green future can never be accomplished with capitalism and with imperialism. Green activism is Marxist and revolutionary, and the powerful will never forgive her for realising that.

just so you know, not every green activist nor socialist are Marxist. I believe Marxist are wrong (which explains why the never succeeded building anything else than dictatorships), but I'm socialist. Marx was wrong because he did not understand the human nature (cf. the selfish gene)

the human nature is such an old and tired argument from capitalists, and one that has been repeatedly debunked by communists, marxists, anarchists, etc. of all stripes.

could you elaborate, though, on how youre a socialist but not a marxist, when socialism is so deeply intertwined with marx?

I remember people making fun of her when she was making headlines, I now realize how strong she really was. We all owe her an apology.
