Hi, this is Greta. You are welcome to follow me here, if you prefer planet earth to planet mars.
@gretathunberg Välkommen! Oavsett plattform, allt som krävs för att bygga nytt och förändra är ett första steg, tillsammans.
@gretathunberg delighted to one of your first followers here: a great admirer from Ireland.
@gretathunberg Welcome. Good to have you here. ❤️
Twitter is a #terraforming tool.
@gretathunberg welcome here! And look at these penguins squatting coal plants!

@gretathunberg Welcome!

Do you plan to provide tutorial videos for the crafting of frog hats?🐸

@simunch I hope so, stay tuned!
@gretathunberg @simunch Yay! We're with you all the way! Go Planet Earth! Arkearth.org
@gretathunberg @simunch I wonder what'd happen if you successfully started a frog-hat-selling business, the haters would be stuck in a deadlock between "young entrepeneur, is allowed to do anything" and "climate activist, I have to say her opinion does not count because she has never worked anything!!1111!"
If someone isn't sure if this is legit, take a look on her Twitter: https://twitter.com/GretaThunberg/status/1589662802477998086
@jr Thanks! So how to verify user without Twitter??

@iso718 depends, they could for example verify via a rel me Link on their website, see https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/profile/#verification

Also @keyoxide is quite useful for decentralized verification, although it's quite nerdy, as it's based on PGP

Setting up your profile - Mastodon documentation

Get started with your new account.

@jr @keyoxide Do I understand keyoxide correct?: Via private/public key we have access to the profile in read/write mode, and for the verification we have to set the DNS TXT entry?

@iso718 @keyoxide no that's not really how it works. Keyoxide fundamentally just defines how you could include identity proofs into your PGP Key. It then also provides some interfaces how others could verify those proofs.

By DNS TXT you mean the website proof of Keyoxide?

@jr @keyoxide So how is the trust built up? Is it because I use the same identity among different services?
@iso718 @keyoxide yes mostly like this. And if you know someone personally you could verify they are in turn the owner of the PGP key. But yeah the main purpose is something similar to Keybase. If you know some online identity of a person you could verify they are the same person somewhere else...
@gretathunberg Välkommen, skall bli spännande att se hur detta utvecklas.

@gretathunberg hi #GretaThunberg! Welcome to the fediverse. If you are interested in verifying your account, you could add fridaysforfuture.org in your bio and have whoever builds the site follow the steps below.

@gretathunberg Welcome! I hope you find this a positive space.
@gretathunberg I'd rather be on Mars than Venus, which is unfortunately what Earth is becoming - Unless we change our ways!
@gretathunberg welcome to the fediverse Greta
@Greta Thunberg Welcome Greta, very pleased to see you here!
@gretathunberg Hi. If you could put a verified link in your profile, people can be sure it's the real you. You can do it in the profile settings.
@gretathunberg hello and welcome to this chaotically cosy corner of the internet!
@gretathunberg
I hope you are the real one. The introduction text sounds very much like you are. Welcome!

@salino @gretathunberg No longer working on her anger management problem?

Oh wait, she never had one. That other petty guy did…

@gretathunberg Greta, I opened the account after seeing your tweet. 🙌
@gretathunberg become anti-capitalist first. 🤷🏽
@AnarchoN8V don't be so authoritarian!
@davidak you don’t even know what authoritarian means.

@AnarchoN8V its putting yourself above others and telling them what to do

it's the opposite of a leftist

which is kind of funny that i have to say that, to an anarchist

if we want more democracy, we have to achieve it in a democratic way. at least in a working democracy (like here in germany. i have no idea where you live. maybe you have to forcibly remove a dictator, that's legitimate)

you see what i mean?

acting violently will scare people away, but we have to convince them of our vision

@davidak I don’t want democracy I want anarchy. The peoples right to self determination. It’s not authoritarian for me to say for greta to truly be for Mother Earth she needs to be anti-capitalist. What the fuck are you on? Go read a book. Perhaps starting with one on Indigenous Sovereignty.

@AnarchoN8V my problem was the demanding tone. that probably hurt your goals more than it helps. greta is on our side and has brought much attention to the topic. don't say she is not good enough!

and are you even sure she is not anti-capitalist?

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/11/02/greta-thunberg-time-overthrow-wests-oppressive-racist-capitalist/

not sure where the quote comes from, but many conservative to far-right media has reported it.

we can just ask her

@gretathunberg are you against capitalism?

Greta Thunberg: It's time to transform the West's oppressive and racist capitalist system

The activist claims that the world’s current 'normal' - dictated by the people in power - has caused the climate breakdown

The Telegraph

@davidak @gretathunberg I’m not gonna be tone policed by a white guy first off. Second off she already made that statement not being anti-capitalist homie. 🙃 (if she is she’s a freaking softy on it and that is not going to Accomplish anything for us.)

Also I don’t owe anyone “respectability” (that’s a way of upholding white supremacy) my tone is perfectly justifiable and accomplishes what I need to have been said.

@AnarchoN8V i don't want to tone police you, but i see my post does. I just replied in the same way.

I don't have any power over you. I'm a privileged white guy from germany, so you might have a completely different perspective and strategy. (i still struggle in the current system)

I'm just angry when activists act in a way that move people further away from the cause. Like climate activists in germany that block streets and people think ""i hate those leftists" and become more right-wing.

@AnarchoN8V i can't read that well and don't read books

videos are more accessible for me

can you recommend a (youtube) video or channel on Indigenous Sovereignty? my knowledge is very brief, but i know it's an important goal

@davidak sure. At Andrew has a good video on it. https://youtu.be/7msyOSrpYsg
LandBack: The Indigenous Liberation Movement

YouTube

@AnarchoN8V to my knowledge, anarchy is when there are no hierarchies. and people organize themselves in a grassroots democracy way. so one can say its radical democracy. do you disagree?

i think an anarchist or communist society is very far away. to the point that it does not make sense to be an anarchist or communist. i can't even imagining how that would work. so to change the system, we should move left step by step using our democratic options

my perspective on politics is germany/europe

@gretathunberg God dag Greta! How about putting a verified Link into your profile? Thank you.
@gretathunberg Welcome! Bienvenida! Great to know you are here!
