If you knew about her still being in the news, your statement about how you never hear about her anymore makes little sense.

She’s not a teenager longer, that was my point. It was fairly unusual for a 15 year old to be so outspoken and articulate about the problem, which is why she used to get a lot of coverage.

Now she is just one young lady among millions who are outspoken about the issue, and the only thing that really distinguishes her from her peers is that she got famous for it at a young age.

Almost all mainstream news in the US is right wing, and I was clearly speaking about why they don’t report on her as much now as they originally did.

I’m sure that her anti capitalist stance has a lot to do with her not being in the news as much, nothing I said contradicts that.

From the way you worded your original statement it seemed like you were saying that the reason you don’t hear from her now was because she wised up and stopped doing it, not that she realized capitalism was the problem and that caused the media to stop reporting on her.

Now that I know what you meant it’s clear we are on the same side of the issue, so I’m not sure why you are insisting that I’m ‘completely wrong’ about it.
