Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I really thought Greta would turn shitlib when she grew up, I'm sorry for doubting her.

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 47 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Same. She's just been getting more and more based.

[–] rufuscrispo@hexbear.net 17 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

yeah--there's a reason she's not been welcomed back on democraCIA now for a while

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I was always on the side of her staying true, I said as much years ago when people on here would occasionally dunk on her or doubt her conviction.

I was about the same age as her when I got involved in political activism and I just had a solid gut feeling she was going to be a committed comrade. Even still this is more than I could expect most people to do, she fuckin rules. Hope she makes it back alright.

Yeah her anger and sorrow always felt pure to me, and that made me trust her.

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 86 points 4 days ago

Greta is a fucking legend. I can't believe how fucking based she's become.

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 70 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

People gave her hate for....... Wanting to tackle climate change
Then she said oh imma give em something to hate then...... Speaks out against genocide thats-why-im-confused thats-why-im-confused These are stupid reasons to hate someone. This is a deeply unserious world.

You know you're on the right side of history when the biggest sin your opposition can pin on you is giving a damn.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

you can either be popular/loved or speak truth

she's chose bravery

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 70 points 4 days ago (2 children)

so if israel kills her what are the odds that sweden even says israel did anything wrong?

[–] Grumpyleb@lemmus.org 65 points 4 days ago

They will demand an investigation and write a strongly worded letter. After which Israel will investigate itself and find no wrong doings. In fact, they'll probably use the slogan "How Dare She".

[–] hexinvictus@hexbear.net 60 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

They'll say that Hamas fighters intentionally operated in that area to force Israel to bomb them and in doing so it is actually Hamas' fault.

Following that Sweden would condemn Hamas and reiterate their support for Israel

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

Or, they'll claim Greta was brainwashed by khamaaas and she deserved it.

[–] Cimbazarov@hexbear.net 53 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Considering what they did to the last flotilla, i worry for her

[–] Sinisterium@hexbear.net 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Worry for the israelis when they blow her up.

[–] jack@hexbear.net 28 points 4 days ago

the martyr Greta Thunberg has inspired the youth of Europe to rise up in revolt against their imperialist ruling class rat-salute-2

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 62 points 4 days ago

Israeli news: Hamas viking terrorizes our shipping lanes

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 45 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Israelis will intentionally go out of their way to kill someone like Greta. She should be careful.

[–] KnownUnknownKnower@hexbear.net 17 points 4 days ago

Well good thing they haven’t targeted this exact group recently clueless

[–] someone@hexbear.net 56 points 4 days ago

This woman is fearless.

[–] Cloudx189@hexbear.net 49 points 4 days ago

Take my energy, Greta

[–] VibeCoder@hexbear.net 46 points 4 days ago

[–] Sulvy@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Oh! Ser Davos, the Onion Knight! Didn't know who the hell you guys were talking about until this scene lol. That's awesome he's helping out, too.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

I read about this, too. Another person who is leaving to try and break the blockade is the first Palestinian Euro parliamentarian, maybe they'll go together.

[–] grym@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Yep, that palestinian MEP is Rima Hassan from LFI! God I love her. Hope they all make it out okay.

The Isra*elis don't speak that language.
There's only one language they speak.

Instead of putting resources into what will never be anything more than a publicity stunt...

  1. Learn to quadcopter

  2. Go to Lebanon with supplies and set up just far enough from the border with Isra*el that you don't register as an imminent threat

  3. You know the rest

sorry hexbear this is my fault, I mailed her a copy of Huey Newton's Revolutionary Suicide
