It’s been pretty cool to see Greta become radicalized before our eyes (hexbear.net)

Libs have totally stopped taking about her after what they thought was her 15 minutes, instead she is out there almost every day it seems protesting against the climate and Israel. She has grown increasingly anti capitalist and its all just very cool to watch as she’s someone I looked up to a lot when I was a younger lib.

this The fact that she was going to a Marxist school when she was shot has been omitted from almost every mainstream media source from the beginning.

“The first Trot sympathizer to the get the Nobel Peace Prize,” noted the British-Pakistani writer and onetime leading Trotskyist Tariq Ali in an email to Al Jazeera on Malala. “Did they know?”

Malala’s association with the leftist group predates her Nobel and the Taliban’s attempt on her life. She addressed the IMT National Marxist Summer School in 2012, speaking from a stage adorned with portraits of Russian revolutionaries Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky.

Malala could have had some vaguely "left" sympathies when she was attending that Trot summer camp 2012 as a 16 year old. But I doubt that she has any kind of real socialist convictions left in her as a 27 year old adult, when she's been safely ensconced within Western elite liberal "progressive" institutions for more than a decade, and is now so financially secure and socially accepted within that crowd that she's co-producing suffragette Broadway musicals with the Hilldawg herself. https://archive.ph/rURQV

She's not a comrade or any sort of revolutionary. At most she's a safe brown "activist" who's ultimately compatible with Western capitalist hegemony.
