assuming it wasn't a psyop from the beginning: when the FFF stuff started i really liked it as it was a fuck you to the school system too, iirc sweden also has mandatory physical attendance of schools, like the third reich, eh, germany. i'm wasn't totally on board with the climate stuff. there are bigger environmental problems, but hey, it was kids trying to do good.

all the good of that movement was swiftly taken and turned into a caricature of something good. useful to those in power though.
