“They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,”

If there's a path to lasting peace, then that path begins with dismantling the Zionist ethno-colony.

I mean beating a privileged blonde white girl is bad, but the whole genocide thing is what I hoped would get nations involved to stop israel.

[-] Brutticus@midwest.social 3 points 3 hours ago

the way I see it, yes but this is worth paying attention to is that this seems to be an escalation. Greta is white and privileged, sure, but she is those things and she is famous. Like anything that happens to her will garner mainstream attention. And if something if they do really bad to her (like kill or SA her) it will put a huge negative spotlight on them in a way I dont think they realize. Like Charlie Kirk was a racist dickhead with tiny face memes for years but my dad didnt ask me who he was until like 2 weeks ago.

One reason this has more impact than it seems like it should is the flotilla was comprised of citizens of other nations.

It's human nature to care more about you and yours than someone else, even if you do also care about someone else, and this triggers that feeling, where Israelis committing genocide against Palestinians do not.

I just hope something comes of it.

Something has already come from it. That something doesn't have to be the end of Zionism though to make it meaningful.

The totality of all action will be what brings about Zionisms death. From the single protest with 50 people you went to. From the BDS movement. From the blockade from Yemin. From the flotillas. From the small win against Microsoft recently. From all of it, and more, Zionism will end one day.

Do not feel disheartened by not meeting the end goal or even making noticable progress for each individual action. Feel inspired by the acts of defiance to also take action in what ever way you are capable of.

Caring for Greta should be first priority @AlecSadler
Identifying and prosecuting her abusers, a close second.

Why "little Greta" she is a grown woman of 22 years. I don't understand what this infantilization of her is supposed to achieve.

Having said that it's definatelly a warning to others that thy don't care how famous you are, you better bring firing power, because just counting on other peoples outrage doesn't work anymore.

[-] Spitzspot@lemmings.world 40 points 16 hours ago

Pretty sure in this case "little" is in reference to her small stature not her age.

[-] prole 2 points 6 hours ago

Not sure if it's the same quote or the same person who said it, but another quote was literally calling her a "child"

Greta is less than 1.5 metres tall @jeena
For a 22-year old, that's "little".

The Zionists evidently want to break her. They want the world to see her broken.

While the gender identity of Greta's abusers is unknown for the moment, an acquaintance has just come up with an apt term for any who present as male:

Particularly
Pathetic
Pseudo-male.

Global fascist media has been fomenting a lynch mob a against random activist for the last decade. Here's the result. That coupled with the absolute failure to recognize the nature of the evil she feels compelled to expose.
