About a month climate activist Greta Thunberg admitted that her goal is to overthrow the genocidal capitalist system:
Calling for a “system-wide transformation” at her book launch in London, she claimed that the world’s current “normal” – dictated by the people in power – has caused the climate breakdown.
She said: “We are never going back to normal again because ‘normal’ was already a crisis. What we refer to as normal is an extreme system built on the exploitation of people and the planet.
“It is a system defined by colonialism, imperialism, oppression and genocide by the so-called global North to accumulate wealth that still shapes our current world order.”
Ms Thunberg added: “If economic growth is our only priority, then what we are experiencing now should be exactly what we should be expecting.”
Now people will be able to read about Thunberg’s thoughts on how capitalism is ruining everything in her new book. Obviously The Socialist Party is going to really enjoy it:
It is a very welcome development that @GretaThunberg used the launch of her new book in October to place responsibility for the climate crisis at the door of capitalism and to call for its overthrow. pic.twitter.com/2JfqKPVVP2

Greta said that capitalism is "an extreme system built on the exploitation of people and the planet. It is a system defined by colonialism, imperialism and oppression and genocide."

First of all, it’s nice of Thunberg and others to admit that this isn’t really about “climate change.”
Did anyone tell her she's not supposed to say that part out loud? https://t.co/6IqqSBBVy2

Here’s my favorite part: Thunberg’s book about how capitalism contributed to the “climate crisis” can be pre-ordered for a totally non-capitalistic $25.99 at Amazon. For bonus irony points order the book from your iPhone.
Hey, the Left never said that learning about anticapitalism would be cheap!
Yup, it was never about the climate to most of them. https://t.co/KvLxEse2M1

Here’s part of the blurb for Thunberg’s book at Amazon:
In The Climate Book, Greta Thunberg has gathered the wisdom of over one hundred experts – geophysicists, oceanographers and meteorologists; engineers, economists and mathematicians; historians, philosophers and indigenous leaders – to equip us all with the knowledge we need to combat climate disaster. Alongside them, she shares her own stories of demonstrating and uncovering greenwashing around the world, revealing how much we have been kept in the dark. This is one of our biggest challenges, she shows, but also our greatest source of hope. Once we are given the full picture, how can we not act? And if a schoolchild’s strike could ignite a global protest, what could we do collectively if we tried?
I think a more effective title would have been “You’re Going To Die From Capitalism Very Soon — Faster If You Don’t Buy This Book.”
