So, as amusingly sarcastic as this is (I assume), true story: I did actually meet and talk to Greta briefly a few weeks ago. She was just as weird, loud, and annoying as you might expect.
And yes, that sounds like bullshit, but I have photographic evidence, haha.
It was ridiculously, absurdly easy to do. So myself and the people I was with did so.
But holy shit it must be annoying people getting up in your face all the time with cameras and shit.
I ended up standing near her (at an event) for much longer than I wanted to, and it was annoying for me, as well…
Did also get to (separately) meet one of her colleagues/close friends, though, and that went much better, to say the least. Name’s Isabel. Half-British, half-Swedish. Great chick.
So yeah, I swear, on all that I’m worth, that this entire thing did actually happen. Because Sweden.
It is fucking fantastic being a reasonably confident Australian here, at least in terms of meeting women.
I'll definitely give you whatever advice I can as soon as I'm in a better situation! But that might take a while, unfortunately...
As bad as things were where I was before, this place (not Sweden. More specifically the cult, and the place it is in) are unequivocally much worse, so...
If I can advise anything, it would be that moving to the other side of the world is a huge risk, and you want to have multiple "escape" plans lined up, contacts with local lawyers, and a bigger financial buffer than I ever expected (I have one, but I didn't plan for things to be quite this bad)...
Oh, and bring less stuff than you think you might need/want, not because it's easy to replace them (it isn't necessarily easy, at all), but because, if you bring even what you think is the bare minimum, you then have to carry that with you, physically, which makes a quick escape, without losing the stuff, more difficult...
I packed for 10 months. Now I have to get 10 months of stuff, plus what I've bought since, out of this place, and either carry it with me, or dump it. Which is much harder to do, quickly, than I planned for...
So that's just a few early tips from someone who knew that shit could go bad, but still underprepared for shit hitting the fan, as it has, sadly...

Any advice for a fellow aussie who would also like to get out? Ideally not to a woke residential cult.
