So just 4 days ago we had huge thread about how great she is because she criticized US imperialism and immediately after that she’s actively participating in the same imperialism. Also her position on Ukraine remains afaik unchanged, still supporting that fascist and ecocidal imperial puppet. How it is even possible to reconcile, is she two different people or what?
She’s participating in literal colour revolution.
…
We could send her a book on Color Revolutions. Didn’t Zinn write a good one?
Washington Bullets is pretty good.
Great read, very concise and digestible. Big fan of prashad.
Pairs well with the one-two punch of Jakarta Method into If We Burn
Only problem is, the lack of references make it hard to recommend to Libs.
Jakarta Method is great and I’ve got JM and WB next to each other on my bookshelf. Haven’t read If We Burn yet, but Pipeline was decent.
I gave away my copy; isn’t it all sourced from western media and the CIA itself? Vaguely remember something about that in the intro
Oh, yeah, but he doesn’t list any sources. Says he’s got some personal contacts and the rest is freely available or something. For anyone even slightly familiar with what he’s talking about, it’s unnecessary. But for some lib with their head still up their butt, it’s a no go.
Idk, he did?
Sure, but so what. So are lots of other people. Sucks that this was sparked and encouraged by Western NGO’s, though.
We aren’t stanning many of colour revolution participants here, if you didn’t noticed.
Think about exactly what you’re saying again? The west is literally trying to Ukrainize Georgia. Participating in a foreign country’s electoral processes (foreign interference) to agitate for the country to effectively destroy itself for the US MIC/to maintain western hegemony is an utterly shit move no matter how one looks at it…
Alright, okay, but there’s a part of me that wonders why we’re focusing on Greta Thunberg. This is in News and not The Dunk Tank.
So, do we think that she’s intentionally laundering for the MIC to turn Georiga into another active battleground against Russia or is she just another one of the millions of people who get swept up in these types of things and we only care because she’s a celebrity?
If you want my opinion? In this context I’d bet it’s the former. This is her gig, her livelihood, she has some (probably) genuine opinions but I doubt this is it, and there are a billion other ways she could have parroted her opinion rather than flying over to Georgia for direct meddling.
