Laura published a great article about that Greta Thunberg and the things that are running in the background.

I watched this Greta Thunberg kind of from the beginning when it started in September 2018 and never really got a good feeling about her, only that I felt sorry for her at times, since as it seemed to me, that she is just a puppet and that she gets used by the powers that be. Only with time this whole thing got a more leftist spin and the European elections got somehow influenced by Thunbergs actions also this year - or that they just used her for their own profit. The green party - at least in Germany - got stronger and surfed this wave and since then the climate propaganda got more present and also pressing.
It seems to me that more and more people falling into that climate propaganda and only a few people still can see critical. Most often these are elderly people and also some young people that haven't grown up in big cities (though with many exceptions). My grandmother once asked if young people cannot see that they get used and it reminded her of Hitler and that he used the youth for his propaganda as well. And she lived through the 30s and the aftermath of the second WW. She further said, that these young people should attend school and instead of protesting helping clean the environment. But almost no one of the young protesters is interested in helping practically making the planet a better place, and they just enjoy not attending the school when they protest for their "future".
Another downside is, that more and more people get angry/annoyed towards this Greta Thunberg and creates tension between people. I think that this is as well intended.

Greta Thunberg: False Prophet of the Children's Crusade -- Sott.net
As SOTT readers may know, I've been in the "prophet business" for over 25 years now. It hasn't been easy, either. Despite a "Hit List" longer than both my arms, I still feel like Cassandra most days. I haven't written anything for public...
