Title: "Capitalism Sucks" by Greta Thunberg

Hi, I'm Greta Thunberg, and I want to tell you why capitalism must die. Buy my book on Amazon to learn all about it.

I am sure some people will buy it. 

I am also sure many would agree that Capitalism Sucks.  It just sucks a lot less than the other options. 

And the anti-capitalists always forget that the cronyism and corruption will be just as bad or worse in their alternative system.

I was posting more in the vein of her embracing capitalism to make her anti-capitalism points.  =)

In a commie society, the little red book would be available for "free".

Greta calling for violence?

Quote
While appearing as a guest during the show's Friday episode, Thunberg argued that if the people of who made great strides in social justice and civil rights throughout history only stuck to using the legal channels they were offered, "we wouldn't be where we are today."

The activist advocated that real climate change action can only come from such radical action.

Somebody call the FBI.

I see what you did there ... and if you didn't you should have, as it's a good one.

For free, reading is compulsory.  And "build quality" of the book (binding, paper) would be absolute bottom tier.

(I worked at Screw of IL Library for 14 years.  Most of the stuff that came in from commie countries, other than Chinese propaganda magazines, was pretty low quality.)

"Greta said that capitalism is "an extreme system built on the exploitation of people and the planet. It is a system defined by colonialism, imperialism and oppression and genocide."

Considering 100 years of communist/socialist activities on the environmental and humanitarian front... that makes me LOL AND realize that apparently European schools don't teach *expletive deleted*it for history, either.
