I already did in broad terms. I would target politics, start a party or movement, grab power, votes and influence, take the helm and actually enact policy and put pressure where it hurts. Even this flotilla would make a lot more sense if it would be a marketing stunt to gain something else, but it really does seem to be limited to exposure which is not enough, everyone already knows the tragedy that is happening and yet those who can actually decide have said time and time again we can all get fucked.
What Greta is doing is a political act, it raises global awareness, which puts pressure on politicians to act or risk losing their offices to folks who will.
I guess the root issue with this is that they don’t act and if they lose their office to someone else those people also don’t act, at least not in the interest of the people. So we would need someone who actually acts instead of just talks and promises and I feel like Greta would be one of those people.
Don’t get me wrong I would love to see her run for office. I think it would need to be something with authority though to do as much good as she is now.
Like Prime Minister or whatever they call the top position in her country.
Even if she didn’t win, she could move the needle a lot.
But that’s just one country, what she’s doing now moves the hearts and minds of folks globally.

These activists must be really stupid to put their life at risk when they can simply win elections, grab power and change policies…
There are parties and ministers and multiple institutions at european union level that drive conversations and can put a lot more pressure on the rest of the world than any single private individual.

There’s politics and establishment politics.

Politics where? The United States? Israel? Who has the power to do anything at all about this?
She’d have to literally become the President of the United States, which is literally impossible since she was born in Sweden.
