Ya know, I think it’s interesting that as soon as Greta Thunberg started espousing anti-capitalist and anti-colonial sentiment, the media coverage of her deeds dropped sharply.
This is ALSO true of Malala Yousafzai, who was celebrated as a champion for the education of girls and women worldwide. She became an icon because she almost sacrificed herself for doing something that should be common for any girl to do.
However, you will NEVER hear about the fact that Ms Yousafzai has used her international platform to speak out against global poverty, the chilling horror of US drone strikes, and against capitalism. In fact, she herself is aware of how the media in the west portrays her, saying that she is “no western puppet”.
What the media will not tell you is that Malala is a full-blown socialist, having said “I am convinced Socialism is the only answer and I urge all comrades to take this struggle to a victorious conclusion. Only this will free us from the chains of bigotry and exploitation”.
