I’m out of the loop, what is she doing these days? How does she make a living?

She’s constantly doing political activism in the name of ensuring environmental policies and getting into a lot of trouble with the law because of it.

She’s not throwing tomato soup at Da Vinci, mind you, but she was present during the environmental protest occupation when Germany decided to start mining brown coal again. You’ll know it; it’s the same protest with the mud wizard meme.

For all the disgruntled people saying she’s a family funded shill she seems rather dedicated to her cause. A shill would’ve stopped ages ago when they’re no longer front page news.

She definitely helped push the narrative that actions matter. I don’t really care how she afford her life at all, non of my business really.

I respect her for what she is doing for us.

Full time political activist is a legit job. But she’s only 21, at this age many people are student and don’t make any money

She wrote a book that has a lot of reviews in Amazon. Arguably, that’s probably enough to allow her to continue doing activism for the time being.

That and family. I mean, typical 21yo won’t take a charter flight to another continent for some eco-event.

Frankly anywhere near me in the social fabric she’s a joke, but you never know.
