10. She's great. Doesn't make it about herself, stays on message.

She’s 100% correct.

It's interesting that when the establishment believed Greta would pursue neoliberal NGO style activism, she was celebrated by mainstream media and heavily praised. But now that her activism has become explicitly anti-capitalist, anti-Zionist, and anti-imperialist, they took the spotlight off of her and paint her in a negative light when they do mention her.

Not surprising really. The rulers don’t want people hearing that message.
