I think the world is sick of self-righteous lectures from wealthy white people.

That's basically what Greta is/was saying, she's lecturing the western world leaders.

It's even present in the above quote:

Because that future was sold so that a small number of people could make unimaginable amounts of money.

She's lecturing the UN, which is more black and brown than anything. Face it, she's a privileged little shit who needs to stay in her lane. You whites don't get to decide whether or not you're racist. Recognize that privilege, white supremacy, homophobia, toxic masculinity, and gender normativity are layered issues. It's easy to call a Nazi a racist because they are so obviously a racist. Not all racists are willing to take up that mantle.

What does her being white have to do with anything? You're just coming across as bitter and racist instead of addressing her actual message.

You can't be racist against white people. The only people who ever claim racism against whites, are racists.

Now let's change one word.

You can't be racist against black people. The only people who ever claim racism against blacks, are racists.

That's what you sound like.

Hypocrisy is the greatest luxury. Raise the double standard.
