The Manufacturing of Greta Thunberg
“What’s infuriating about manipulations by Non Profit Industrial Complex is that they harvest good will of the people, especially young people. They target those who were not given skills and knowledge to truly think for themselves by institutions which are designed to serve the ruling class. Capitalism operates systematically and structurally like a cage to raise domesticated animals. Those organizations and their projects which operate under false slogans of humanity in order to prop up the hierarchy of money and violence are fast becoming some of the most crucial elements of the invisible cage of corporatism, colonialism and militarism.”
— Hiroyuki Hamada, artist
Interessante articolo in 6 atti (più addenda), tratto da Wrong Kind of Green, sul fenomeno del momento.
Nota del 13 Aprile 2019: Voci dall'Estero ha tradotto in italiano (al momento in cui scrivo, solo il primo atto) questo articolo: La fabbricazione di Greta Thunberg ai fini del consenso: la politica economica del complesso industriale non-profit. Atto I.
Per chi non avesse tempo di leggere, punto l'attenzione sul sommario delle parti V e VI:
In ACT V, we take a closer look at the Green New Deal. We explore Data for Progress and the targeting of female youth as a key “femographic”. We connect the primary architect and authors of the “Green New Deal” data to the World Resources Institute. From there, we walk through the interlocking Business & Sustainable Development Commission and the New Climate Economy – a project of the World Resources Institute. We disclose the common thread between these groups and the assignment of money to nature, represented by the Natural Capital Coalition and the non-profit industrial complex as an entity. Finally, we reveal how this has culminated in the implementation of payments for ecosystem services (the financialization and privatization of nature, global in scale) which is “expected to be adopted during the fifteenth meeting in Beijing in 2020.”
In the final act, ACT VI [Crescendo], we wrap up the series by divulging that the very foundations which have financed the climate “movement” over the past decade are the same foundations now partnered with the Climate Finance Partnership looking to unlock 100 trillion dollars from pension funds. We reveal the identities of individuals and groups at the helm of this interlocking matrix, controlling both the medium and the message. We take a step back in time to briefly demonstrate the ten years of strategic social engineering that have brought us to this very precipice. We look at the relationship between WWF, Stockholm Institute and World Resources Institute as key instruments in the creation of the financialization of nature. We also take a look at what the first public campaigns for the financialization of nature (“natural capital”) that are slowly being brought into the public realm by WWF. We reflect upon how mainstream NGOs are attempting to safeguard their influence and further manipulate the populace by going underground through Extinction Rebellion groups being organized in the US and across the world.
N.B.: come si può leggere in About Us è una critica documentata che proviene dall'interno del variegato movimento ambientalista. Per questo motivo è una lettura interessante anche se non si condividono premesse ed obbiettivi del collettivo che gestisce il sito.
