who should know better - and who know better

The greatest tragedy in Greta Thunberg's life is probably the fact that her panicked concerns are supported by powerful authorities. The whole world is telling her - Merkel, Macron, Obama, the Pope, the EU grandees - that she is doing good and is right with her conglomerate of diagnosed obsessive-compulsive disorders and fears, with her desolate panic, with her excessive accusations and not least with her self-righteousness. This will make it difficult for her to free herself from the fatal entanglements of her thinking. She is being abused by people who should know better - and who do know better.

Parts of the media elevate it to a pedestal that is otherwise reserved for idols. The astute journalist Eugen Sorg wrote: "The homage and devout praise that Greta receives for her utopian-ruinous demands betray the crypto-religious character of the climate rescue movement." When she speaks of one of the "greatest existential threats in the history of mankind", this is "not to be seen as the somewhat exaggerated claim of an over-excited teenager, but rather as a discovery of the wisdom of biblical 'prophets'". Sorg continues: "The neo-pagan climate cult demands faith and devotion, not knowledge and a competition of ideas. Truth is a question of the right attitude and not a sceptical search for answers.

And who better epitomises this attitude than the serious vegan girl with the strict pigtails, the pure heart and morals untainted by knowledge? Even Greta's Asperger's disorder is interpreted as a sign of superior cognitive power. When she preaches to her global audience with petrified facial expressions: 'I want you to panic (...)', subtle commentators celebrate the 'existential seriousness' of Greta's language." Sorg points out that it is no longer considered "that Thunberg's anxiety might not simply be due to altruistic concern about climate change, but also to the experience of deep social alienation and emotional loneliness typical of Asperger's sufferers".

Italian political scientist Ricardo Cascioli describes the absurdity of Greta officiating at international forums and being turned into "a kind of priestess" to whom world leaders pay homage, noting: "Everyone seems to completely forget how ridiculous and unprecedented this situation is." Christoph von Marschall writes in Berlin's "Tagesspiegel": "The Greta movement stands for an infantilisation of the understanding of what politics should - and can - achieve. It spreads untruths. It lays claim to a supposedly secure scientific truth which, on closer inspection, consists of declaring dissenting scientific opinions to be heresy."

The multi-award-winning journalist Wolfram Weimer (founder of the magazine "Cicero", former editor-in-chief of "Die Welt") asks who is staging Greta so professionally, and came across reports in Scandinavian media about a network of commercial companies such as the public limited company "We don't have time" (a kind of Facebook for left-wing greens) run by stock market specialist and PR expert Ingmar Rentzhog (member of Al Gore's "Climate Reality Project"), who also works with the "Club of Rome" (PR for population reduction and abortion). It is to become the "world's largest social network for climate action" and is intended to "attract investors, generate profits and showcase young climate heroes like Greta Thunberg". Rentzhog publicised Greta Thunberg and advertised with her. In a very short time, "We don't have time" was able to raise money from more than 500 investors from 16 countries.

Other commercial organisations backed by billionaire donors are "Compassionate Revolution" (based on share capital), the "Climate Emergency Fund" (co-founder and director: Trevor Neilson), the "Guerilla Foundation" (financed by billionaire Antonis Schwarz, among others). Within four weeks, Neilson's organisation has paid out 600,000 dollars to the radical organisations "Extinction Rebellion" (which is also financed by Georges Soros' "Open Source Foundation") and "Climate Mobilisation", which have announced acts of sabotage at Heathrow Airport, among other things.

Neilson is confident that he will be able to raise a hundred times this amount in a short space of time. He was head of the "Global Business Foundation" (founded with money from Bill Gates, Georgeos Soros and Ted Turner), headed the "Bill Gates Foundation", worked under Bill Clinton and is active for the campaign organisation "One", whose "youth ambassador" is Luisa Neubauer (member of the Green Party, "Fridays for Future").

"Fridays for Future", "Extinction Rebellion", "Attac", "Compassionate Revolution", "Rising Up", the "Club of Rome" and a number of other networked organisations are openly committed to the goal of a neo-Marxist "Great Transformation" of society. Climate policy is the vehicle for this transformation, according to journalist Ansgar Neuhof. "New power structures and expanded earning opportunities make this alliance between parts of the financial elite and radical left-wing ideologues appear understandable," says Neuhof.
