The Swedish activist Greta Thunberg has been detained by Israel and reportedly maltreated by her Israeli captors after she was kidnapped, along with hundreds of other activists, from Gaza’s territorial waters on Friday.
“Personal liberty” is what allows capitalists to exploit us. They have all the “liberty” you think you have. The “liberty” to put lies in the media, to pay you less than the value of your labor in order to extract a profit, to charge extortionist prices for healthcare and other basic needs, to influence politics and to crush competing public industries. These are all the things that “liberty” gets you under capitalism. “Personal liberty above all” != working class liberation.
I’m not from the US, but from the outside it looks like you are threatening to not help, when the issue and criticism is that US liberals didn’t help in the first place, and still aren’t helping.
Can you see why what you said could be seen as a silly take?
Wait so Greta is a liberal and doing right but other liberals are enables but leftists are … checks notes… circle jerking themselves to completion over a captured “ally”? Make it make sense
Economic liberalism is associated with markets and private ownership of capital assets. Economic liberals tend to oppose government intervention and protectionism in the market economy when it inhibits free trade and competition, but tend to support government intervention where it protects property rights, opens new markets or funds market growth, and resolves market failures.[2]

Greta could have become a very rich liberal grifter.
keep them Davos cheques coming in.
instead she’s risking her life to help those humanity has abandoned.
respect
And you got leftist piling on liberals for some reason
“For some reason”
Liberals in the US are MAGA enablers. To the last individual.
Yeah what and you’re going to resist the us gov with what percent of the population?
~90% of the world’s population?
We can leave USA & support countries where leftists have a stronger presence.
Coward
Big talk for a liberal
Well I’m still here and you’re still trying to divide my people
This is the funniest shit I’ve read today, thank you
Coward
Coward? I’m saying you need friends not enemies
Fascists and their enablers are not our friends.
I’m not a fascist enabler. I believe in personal liberty above all

Where do I say I won’t help? I’m saying if leftists want division between them and everyone else then they will be alone
You can’t be serious…
liberals will do nothing to resist
Shut the fuck up nerd
I’m right and you know it loser
The fuck you are
I am 100% correct and you already know it, any hope you have for liberals engaging in meaningful resistance is pure delusion
how much time you got
Liberals are not leftists or allies, you object to “purity tests” because you know you’ll fail them
You are a dumbass
You are a liberal
Wow, smart enough to follow along! 👏👏👏
For some reason?
Wym some reason? Y’all get off to easy imo.
Stop with the woe is me shit, you know perfectly well how complicit y’all are.

Greta is very clearly not a liberal. She’s been very vocally anticapitalist these past few years.
You can be liberal and anticapitalist
Sure, if you ignore the meaning of both of those words.
Go on I’ll wait
Shitlibs even too lazy for wikipedia
You quite literally cannot. Liberalism is the ideology of capitalism.
No, it’s not
Shitlibs even too lazy for wikipedia
Read a book
What do you want me to read “the extensive guide to felating Carl marx while ignoring real life and confirming my own bias”? Okay
Yeah sounds like a good place to start lol
