Insane misguided brat.

Cowabung-Gal 01-17-2023 02:11 PM

She’s just going through a phase. When she’s older she’ll look back on this and facepalm herself.

IndigoErth 01-17-2023 02:12 PM

Identity documents? She's literally "that girl," I don't think there is much questioning of her identity to be done. lol Did the police really just stand there and wait for the press to get their photos..?

Generally I've never given a damn and at most I've at least given the girl credit for being outspoken in the things she cares about when most people in the world would barely attempt to get up off their ass for the things they care for, but that video bugs me. There is almost a smug vibe to it, a pride in getting the attention, even negative, too common to her age group...

Andrew NDB 01-17-2023 02:29 PM

Level up!

Level 31: FAKE Martyr.

joe-eyeball 01-17-2023 03:44 PM

I give her absolutely zero credit because she has quite clearly been groomed by her disgusting parents to be a spokesmodel for climate change which apparently has “raped” her of her childhood. So now she will do what most talentless hacks do when their 15 minutes is long up and that is to do anything to remain desperately relevant! She’s a joke

What if she only pretends to care about the hot topic du jour precisely so she can get that attention for kicks?

Closest she'll ever get to being raped, I can tell you that right now...

Too easy to assume just to hate on the girl, though also always possible. Considering the big trend of faking disorders and whatever for attention among people her age, I wouldn't put it past them.

She's been at it long enough... time to either tally up the good that its done, or become yet another jaded adult who realizes the youthful belief that your generation is going to change the world for the better will once again not be coming true. Nor would I have ever believed it even possible for the Tide pod eating generation.

Because you'd only rape the hot ones, right? Only way you'll ever get laid.

It's not too late to admit you're an idiot.

IndigoErth 01-17-2023 06:51 PM

I tried to look away rather than address it and encourage that topic to continue, but yeah, I'm not sure why in this day and age anyone still thinks rape comments are like that are okay, no matter who they are about. Pretty messed up to use that as a disparaging remark. I'm not crazy about the obnoxious girl either, but wtf.

The biggest things are that she is an autistic kid who dropped out of high school because she was so worried about the environment that she "just couldn't concentrate". Her parents could put her on a stage to act like a petulant child who does not understand what she is asking enabled by people who think that children speak truth to power.

Thats really all there is to her.

Sumac 01-17-2023 08:47 PM

In her mind she is a hero, while in reality she is just some autist, who ended up in a spotlight, because, some people decided to use her mental illness as a blunt tool for their interests.

Bet you she's deluded enough to think she's the one playing the adults, though.

And a convenient one. If you made fun of her position on things it was "ah-ah-ahhhh! You can't make fun of a kid!" as an armor. But she's an adult now so they don't have that anymore.

The most amusing part of it all was the left touting her autism as a "superpower," the idea that it somehow uniquely enabled her to hyper focus on and solve climate change. This was a thing they were actively promoting.

IndigoErth 01-17-2023 09:33 PM

Eh. Just looked her up out of curiosity of just how autistic she is (if she's minimal enough that most of this is on her or if people who should have been aiding her to make a good path in life have failed her -- perhaps a bit of both) and it looks like SHE is the one who called it a "superpower." Others I guess just grabbed onto it in support of thinking this kid was going to do some kind of good. (And perhaps a lot of fellow mildly autistic peers her age that wanted to feel better about their condition?)

Good luck to her in the coming years. Protesting can't exactly be your life's work, so who knows where she could even find herself at 30 and needing to still try to lead a normal life once she's gotten over this youthful drive. Esp if she's a drop out. Aspergers isn't exactly enough of an excuse not to hold down work.

I don't have any ill will toward the girl, but she's missing that change is a group effort and some overly self assure 'kid' prattling on isn't going to do it. Though her youth and autism are probably a big factor in not grasping that.

Before the pandemic, Fridays for Future was the non-violent movement and Extinction Rebellion was the violent one.

The climate movement became more and more desperate during the pandemic years, because most media publicity was given to the pandemic instead of the climate (even if carbon emissions were reduced during the pandemic). Now, they're merging together.











(Funny how they ride bicycles at one place, block them at another. Sure, they're different persons, but still funny.)

Cowabung-Gal 01-18-2023 10:22 AM

Woke people bent on preventing climate change need to listen to THIS guy:


Coola Yagami 01-18-2023 12:09 PM

She's an idiot, but you can't blame her too much. She's clearly being manipulated and taken advantage of. She thinks she's a real hero giving a thumbs up while been arrested like a common thug.

It's gonna suck when reality hits.

ssjup81 01-18-2023 12:42 PM

I don't know much about her, just that she's into environmental rights and does protests for it or something and that she's a kid. I don't get the hate on her, though...but I guess if I looked her up (or cared to), I'd be able to understand. Overall, I'm pretty neutral on her.

This sentence is utterly terrifying for reasons entirely unrelated to Greta herself.

TurtleManiac 01-18-2023 02:15 PM

It seems like a photo op since when do police stand there and smile for the cameras? Likely just a publicity stunt since she’s a puppet for the World Economic Forum.

Didn’t realize these activists/ protesters are sitting there blocking traffic, preventing people from going to work so they can virtue signal. I hope that’s not happening here in the U.S. These activists and scientists really believe that climate change is causing people to have cardiac arrest, or they’re just saying whatever they get paid to say.

This sounds about right. But it was a lot of others, and it was hysterical every time that'd be trotted out.

It happened in Maryland in July 2022.

These British activists in April 2022 were even worse. They glued themselves to the road.


IndigoErth 01-18-2023 03:29 PM

Activism I get, caring about nature and everything that it impacts and everything impacting it... great, absolutely. If we irreparably destroy it all we're just creating our own demise and knowingly doing it.

But gluing yourself to a road, etc., what is that even supposed to do. People aren't going to stop and care about your cause because of that, they're just going to be pissed that you're interrupting a whole lot more.

If an ambulance in a hurry needs to get through, then what? Just run the people over and send another to pick them up? Okay.

Right? I was guessing 15-ish. Guess she's been doing this longer than we released. I blame the pandemic time warp. lol

She started school striking in late August 2018, aged 15.

Wokesters chose her wisely: she is an autistic girl (and now a woman), so its like 2 medals out of 3 in the oppression Olympics. She is White, but, well, guess, you can't have everything.

I don't like her, since I think, she is an annoying timewaster and I think she should've figured out she is being used, but at the same time, I kind of see, how it is easy to become slave of your delusions.

She won't til it's too late. After all, what is she if she leaves the cult? A nobody that now has to live a normal life. She's not going to want to abandon her 'fame' and notoriety.

Maybe in a few years she'll come out with 'I've been used and manipulated!!' and run with that for a while whenever she gets desperate enough to remain relevant.
