The trivialization of what struggles? You’re not clarifying your stance at all, you’re just making fun of some girl. (with the same rhetoric the right wing uses to trivialize climate crisis activism)
No one is trivialising anyone else’s struggles here. The marginalisation and oppression people face is varied and many-faceted. However, turning a neurodivergent teenage girl into an object of scorn and mockery is not, in fact, liberatory praxis.
Especially when she trying to learn and grow and come to anti-imperialist conclusions. This is how you get people in the imperial core to actually rebel against imperialism, by the way. By embracing anti-racist, anti-imperialist rhetoric. The empire will not be defeated externally, so why spend your energy trying to undermine burgeoning class-consciousness when there are literal capitalists and fascists to focus on?
As far as Greta specifically, again, I will remind you, this is a neurodivergent, teenage girl that has been ruthlessly mocked by the right wing while at the very least attempting to give a shit about the environment in a society that still treats fossil fuels as lifeblood. As she becomes an adult she is learning the correct direction to aim her vitriol: racist imperialism. So why attack her from the left? Why not encourage her and people like her to read our literature and further radicalise?
And finally, why the fuck would it ever be acceptable to take pictures of children and turn them into jokes under the guise of “it’s just a meme?” Should we take photos of you as a teenager, photoshop them to make you look callous and cruel, and then attack everything you say with those images? That is a sickening way to interact with other human beings and their growth.
okay okay The third paragraph is too much, but at last you made your point.
I put a comment in response to DankZedong to show you the context I live:
Dear comrade, I am a Mexican communist (Marxist-Leninist, not “commie”), who currently continues to live in Mexico, specifically in the misnamed “hot zone” territory that is heavily disputed by cartels. I am an environmental engineer, with studies and knowledge in software development; constantly confronting governments and armed groups for defending our rights to a more just and ecologically sustainable society, they literally slaughter us. I not only criticize society, I fight to change it, and any of the comrades here are welcome. Within the lemmygrad community I am an active collaborator of prolewiki in Spanish.
Precisely the trivialization of these struggles.

Laugh at a person? Sure others of us are in real struggles. Believe what you want. greetings comrade.
