The 19-year-old Swedish activist has announced that as well as tackling her usual area of climate action and awareness-spreading, she has now thrown her weight behind defeating the West’s “oppressive” 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.”
Appearing at London’s Royal Festival Hall to launch her new book, The Climate Book, on Sunday night, she decided to venture into political waters in her speech - having previously avoided doing so.

Would someone please sacrifice her to a volcano?
I do think she is clinically insane.
She doesn’t realist that in the communist system, she would be expendable.
Stupid twit.
Wow, no left-wing nutcase has ever suggested such a thing.
She was saying the other day in some interview she didn’t want to go into politics. She seems confused.
So not only are her energy policies leading Europe to disaster it’s now apparent she’s never studied world history.
Mongol conquests? An Lushan Rebellion in China? No?
Iran has no capitalist system. She should move there.
How is capitalism racist? It is supposed to be a free exchange of goods and services. In other words value for value. So if it is value for value and it is racist, then it follows that some races bring no value to the table because they are leas supreme than other races…or does she think that if certain races built a awesome car, or boat, or phone that people would not buy them if they were created by non preferred races
Europeans are worried about freezing this winter. Not enough of them are listening to Greta’s Global Warming nonsense anymore. So she has to find a new cause.
I wish Greta would focus on something more important, like getting rid of the designated hitter in Major League Baseball. That rule has got to go.
Children should be seen an not heard. Especially idiots.

Isn’t this the little snot about whom a diplomat said was rank smelling and needed a good shower, followed by a healthy application of deodorant?

Greta, calm down and take your meds.

BTW, Kelley’s hero’s is a pretty entertaining movie.
I stopped worrying about what kind of world we are leaving for the children, and started worrying about what kind of children we are leaving for the world.
