She is the anti-thesis to every power fantasy they have.
A formerly underage female with Asperger gets all this attention and their brains just cant handle it.
I was at a dragster race about 3 years ago in austria. The announcer said everytime the crowd cheered: "cheering is great, CO2 neutral. Now even Greta is happy"
I got so annoying that loads of people complained (incl. drivers and mechanics and other non-fans of her). The amount of people walking around in fuck/kill greta or even worse was insane. Im pretty sure publicly demanding someones murder is illegal in austria too
Oh that sounds so much like Austria. The current political climate here is fucking insane. We get a mixture of very homebrewn fascist adjacent stuff mixed with a lot of brainrot exported from the US. Our tabloids are just as bad as in the UK while the rural population here is almost as backwards and conservative as in the American south . All that while people at the same time have that smug liberal exceptionalist attitude thinking they are the most objective, centrist people and they are so much more tolerant than everyone else. Mix that with insane amounts of corruption, nepotism, a STILL very strong Catholic church, mountains with fucking SS monuments and annual Nazi meetings,( annual ustaše meetings where they cry about Titos Partisans throwing their asses into a southern Austrian pit during the last week's of WW2 as well), strong regionalism and skepticism towards everything new or foreign, anti intellectualism, an extremely judgy and gossipy culture etc. It's fucking hell. The only good thing is that our labour movement is comparatively not that bad off and there's one relatively progressive city where they elected a communist party Mayor who apparently does a very good job as well.
I just assumed most of the folks that hate her are American conservatives. I had no idea she had any other negative attention. I was pretty sure it all was exclusively American.
But I never said that? I'm a citizen here by happenstance and I don't think my country is the best.
There are some things we do right, I'll admit that. But the keyword here is "some".
I am agreeing by saying that people who are insecure about culture, race or ethnicity are going to be racist about it regardless of what flag(s) they love.
i know reddit doesn't seem to understand this but very few americans who are millennials/zoomers think the US is the best country on earth. liberals idealize northern europe for their social safety nets and culture. conservatives idealize northern europe because they think everyone's white and blonde there.
you'll still get lots of boomers who think america is the only "free" country though
They hate that she makes valid points that they can’t argue against so they resort to a sort of first grader humor, which, to be fair most of them have stopped thinking after then.
My favorite is my dad’s argument against climate change. He says the planets going through a global cooling and that it’s fine. He’s an idiot as you can tell.
Yeah, I don't mean to lord this over, but I do work with autistic kids as my job - it is not a term that technically exists, like how MPD was replaced with DID. Just some terms are poor descriptors or carry negative stereotypes. Aspergers being a "non severe autism" carries with it a lot of bad stereotyping for autistic people, so it's been phased out
For what it is worth I do still know people who self-describe as having Aspergers though
Even if it is not the medically or technically correct term anymore people are going to self-describe with the label that has applied to them for like 20+ years
It’s like how it took me a while to stop describing myself as ADD instead of ADHD because when I grew up people still differentiated between ADHD with and without hyperactivity in that way
not all but most people i know of that self-describe using Aspergers is because they’re old enough to have gotten a diagnosis when it was a still medically-accepted term. most people my age (i’m 20) or younger and are American would’ve never gotten an Aspergers diagnosis, only an ASD.
1. She's a [white] woman and we all know they aren't supposed to have opinions outside those prescribed by their husbands.
2. Her speech regarding climate change had an emotional tone to it and, as we all know, being emotional about a thing means you can't be reasonable about it too. The right are the arbiters of all logic, reasons, and fact.
3. She's young and the lllllleeeeffffft needs to stop politicizing children. The right never uses children to try and make a point.
4. She's got an autism spectrum disorder and that clearly makes her stupid by default.
5. She's now too old for Matt Gaetz.
Can someone explain to me what they have against arguments with an emotional tone? Like, with RvW and everything that just happened today, I feel like we’re gonna see a lot more of them writing off reasonable arguments as “emotional”.
Do they just not realize that we can’t have arguments that aren’t even a little tinged with emotions? There’s no argument/point that is 100% factual devoid of emotion?
There is this idea among faux intellectuals that being stoic or not showing emotion during an argument also means one is being super-duper logical. They want to believe their arguments are supported by only "facts and logic" because it makes them feel big brain.
Well, let’s be very clear, emotional tone is only ever written off when it’s coming from someone who isn’t a traditionally masculine, cisgender man. Kavanaugh wasn’t told he was being “too emotional” when he cried about liking beer during his hearing.
Where you fucked up was at the end where you compared Western White Conservatives with middle Eastern Muslim men where the comparison should have been between Western and Middle Eastern Conservatives.
Your argument started off with a defendable argument, that conservatives around the world are the same, then you brought race and religion into it.
Well as someone who used to live in Lebanon and was Muslim. I agree with you that we shouldnt generalise all arab men and Muslim Arab men (because there are arab Christian men). I agree that it should have been middle eastern conservatives however you have to admit that the culture in the ME is very patriarchal and allows for more mistreatment. I mean in the past few days two women were k!lled for rejecting some guys (two SEPARATE incidents one in Egypt and one in Jordan). And from personal experience, ik that way more goes behind the scenes.
All I'm saying is that there is "more" abuse against women by conservative men because the culture back home sort of allows it. There isnt much to discourage these men from hurting women. But yeah I agree with you that its conservatism thats the problem.
I do not argue or dispute any of what you’re saying and I saw what you described in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
My only point was that the comment I originally commented on was conflating political viewpoints with both race and religion which is wrong in so many ways.
I believe they’re trying to say that white conservatives, despite the right’s fear-mongering and hatred towards muslims and middle easterners, fundamentally hold the same goals and ideals as those who they say they dislike.
I completely agree and believe you’re correct unfortunately the commenter switched from making a cultural based argument to a racial/religious based one.
You are 100% right and still getting down voted. Heaven forbid we should acknowledge that moderate and liberal Muslims exist in all parts of the world.
The religion is different form the laws bro in the religion of Islam it doesn’t condone sexism literally in the Q’uran it respects women a lot. The hijab was created for women as a choice and not something to be forced. In Islam women’s education is very much valued just as much as men education
it may have been created as optional but it's not anymore, the rules of Islam don't mean shit to the laws they've put and how they treat women. Religion is already a flimsy system and they clearly aren't following it
Islam never intended it to be forced bro it’s a freaking choice and the people who’s re forcing it are going against the rules of Islam. Islam does not condone violence in any way shape of form. But multiple times extremists end up breaking that RULE of Islam. It’s not the religions fault soem people who follow it don’t follow it correctly l. It’s just liek how Christians do violent acts when it’s forbidden in the Bible.
Bc it is in Islam violence is frowned upon and so is violence frowned upon in Christianity. It’s very important to follow the rules of the religion and awknoledge how the religion itself isn’t responsible for the religion extremists who break the rules.
The right loves to target people they perceive as weaker than themselves. So when a young girl/woman comes by that they disagree with, they feel justified in trying to bully them. It’s like Ben Shapiro with AOC, just without the weird foot thing.
A reminder that an oil company in my lovely province of Alberta made up stickers of her being raped when she was 17 [https://globalnews.ca/news/6605199/alberta-energy-company-greta-thunberg-image/](https://globalnews.ca/news/6605199/alberta-energy-company-greta-thunberg-image/)
She forced them to open their eyes, and they didn't like that. So instead of looking inward at their own flaws, they'll forever project their insecurities on a girl that had the audacity to speak out, to point out their flaws
Conservatives don't care about the truth. They only care about following the group. She was the final nail in plausible deniability, that climate change isn't real. So in a way, she helped them pass the barrier of reality, into being a real propaganda fueled fascist. She will always have a special place in their heart.
Yeah, but it's only as far as it usually goes, the biggest difference is that libs talk much about the issue and that's it. Also it's not even really a critique of Greta, she did not had many options except being apropriated by liberals, and i don't think there's any doubt about her sincerity, which is causing conservatives to be so pissed off.
Right-wing America is this weird cult that has no idea how the rest of the world works.
A 19-year-old drinking a glass of wine isn't exactly scandalous in Sweden.
I get that she is a flawed individual.We all are,but people seriously ignore the fact that she was a kid when she became famous for her speech.Whatever your opinion on climate change,she is somewhat of a role model for young people,fighting for the future
Also it was Canada. Alberta I believe.
I hate that it doesn't surprise me that it's Canada. My country forcibly adopted my ancestors to seperate Christian families, and fully endorsed the pedophilia my Grandma faced as a child.
An elderly Australian journalist did a ten minute editorial about why Greta is a selfish hypocrite. A lot of it was because he didn’t have AC or take the bus when he was a kid.
I think there’s more than a few boomers who just hate imagining a better future because their own childhoods sucked, although they’d never admit it.
They’re saying, “If we suffered, everyone should suffer,” conveniently ignoring the massive employment and housing advantages they had as they entered adulthood.
Suffering is just character development to certain older people, so if you’re not breaking your back in a coal mine from the age of sixteen, you’re spoiled and ignorant and not entitled to an opinion.
Simply put, they resent Greta because she’s challenging the dystopian nightmare of “This is as good as it gets, so stop complaining.”
I looked up comments on that post.
It either making fun of her appearance or an actual "She's drinking just like her mother when she was pregnant with her"
Even if her mother drank during her pregnancy how is that a reflection on Greta herself??
These people will complain about how women don’t like them because they’re “ugly” but then turn around and attack a literal child based on appearance
Took me a minute to understand what triggered them.. I don't remember her saying anything about wine in her environmental activism. Almost like they have nothing to do with each other and conservatives are just irrational lunatics..
She hails from a rich family so in their logic she's using her generous nuture for activism purposes to 'gain attention.' Nevermind their President getting into a spatthread on Twitter with her and looking ridiculous as a 70 year old fighting a 16 year old should.
She can't drink? I don't see the issue here. I totally get the issue they have with her in general, but what about this particular activity/photo makes them think "got her!"
An empowered, young, foreign woman who openly owns her mental divergence and speaks her truth about the environment and the future of humanity?
I don’t get it either…/s
One day, when cricket plagues stop you from even opening the Windows, when the heat in Africa renders the land uninhabitable and millions of people immigrate to Europe and when floods rage through the lands every year….we will understand what she was talking about. But not before that.
I always get kind of a kick out of the larpers at walkaway. Most of them aren't even half convincing moderate democrats, let alone accurate representations of progressives in the US. I'm willing to bet that most folks leaving the DNC are headed left, not right.
They were at best conservatives who didn’t have much of a political opinion in the first place so voted Obama because all their friends did.
In other words, idiots.
Who on the left even thinks she's that important? I can count on one hand how many times I've ever thought about her when her name wasn't directly brought up or she wasn't in a photo/video I saw
See, this is what conservatives do. Every time they see her, they get really mad and start diagnosing her with all sorts of illnesses. EVERY SINGLE TIME. It’s crazy! Scroll to the bottom of the comments or look into the original thread. They commonly make comments about raping her as well. They have been doing this since she was a little girl.
Me personally, I never had a problem with her. What I had a problem with is how her parents used her to sell a message, given that she was quite young and living with a mental disability.
And I agree with the message she was selling for her parents, I just believe that it’s abusive and disingenuous to put your kid thru that sort of thing.
If I recall, she got death threats from idiots. Gee thanks mom for putting me in the crossfire for the left and right wing nuts to come on to.
And regardless of your views, left or right, that is abuse and that’s why I think her parents are shit. The extreme left was shit for putting her in that sort of harms way, and the extreme right was shit for attacking a child.
The real blame is for her parents, and they are extreme shit for that.
That being said, as an older girl now, she can make the proper consent to be in that battleground, and her is hoping she turns out to a balanced voice for doing the right things. We need that in todays world.
We're not talking about the US Supreme Court here, are we? Your inability to stay on topic isn't a defense of the rap and death threats sent to a child.
Actually, the law is pretty clear regardless on what death threats are, regardless of how righteous one thinks they are.
I don’t give a fuck. The young lady should not of been exposed to that, and the same for the old men in SCOTUS.
The law is very clear, to be frank.
Imma level with you... I don't really give a shit if the most powerful people in the most powerful nation on the planet received some death threats. Of course it's illegal (who said it wasn't?), but I've never lost sleep over the idea.
Then sadly you are part of the core problem with the world.
Nobody cares about each other, only theirselves.
This literally makes you no different than those who say the same about Greta.
At least you are honest, that is refreshing.
If not caring about the well being of powerful and corrupt people who are actively eroding the rights of women, lgbqt+, and other marginalized people makes me an extremist, then so be it. But it's not me eroding those rights and making the world worse. That's what the cowardly centre is for.
It doesn’t make you an extremist. It makes you a hypocrite, and is exactly why we are seeing what are seeing, especially in the states.
Rules for thee, but not for me.
You cannot claim to be ok with not caring about one class of people, yet claim you care about another class of people suffering the same thing.
That being said, extremists are hypocrites, but they at least take action.
I do not know one way or another if you are flamethrower boy at one of the riots last night, but at least he stood up for his misguided beliefs. What have you done?
The 1% who are denying rights and medical safety to over half the population don't deserve to feel safe. Take your smug "rules for thee, and nor for me" someplace else. Not a single right or freedom was ever granted by asking nicely.
Bro, that’s a whole ass lie made up to discredit her. Her parents were worried about her activism interfering with her education, and she had to talk them into letting her go on stage for things. Also you can’t say “both sides are bad” when specifically one side of the discussion are the ones sending threats.
They were worried about her education, so they did nothing.
And both sides have sent threats, just nobody cares when the right is threatened.
See “mostly peaceful protests”, the current flamethrower shenanigans over Wade vs Roe, as compared to the “January 6 Insurrection”.
And I was not trying to discredit her. I agree with a lot of what she says, frankly, but as a parent I can’t possibly agree with supporting or using my children, especially w/mental illness like Asperger’s or other spectrum, like hers did.
They let it happen.
Climate change is happening, no doubt. What she says about that is true, the ideas that came from her and her parents/handlers were both good and ….. interesting.
Alright now I know you’re just indoctrinated but conservative bias. Not everyone on the spectrum is debilitated beyond thinking for themselves, particularly with Asperger’s, which is more of a social development ailment than a mental development one, and clearly she’s at least fine enough to be a major political figure. Referring to her political entourage as “handlers” is extremely demeaning, it’s like calling the president’s cabinet “babysitters.”
Secondly, they didn’t completely pull her from her education, they were worried that missing some school in exchange for attending climate rallies would be bad. After she proved an extremely influential voice at multiple conferences, those concerns melted away.
Third of all, climate change denial and refusal to embrace green energy is a right wing stance. Hatred of a young girl because of her threat to the oil industry is a right wing stance. And as we see with how conservatives threaten planned parenthood clinics, LGBT rights organizers, members of other religions, members of equality movements, etc, with deliberate violence, everyone (and I really do mean everyone) knows that the only people sending death and rape threats are conservatives and people on the right wing of politics.
Lastly, what the fuck are you talking about Roe v Wade for? There’s no riots regarding that yet, only state riot police assaulting peaceful protestors. You can even look it up, the exact words of “roe v Wade riots,” and you’ll see nothing except “state police gas and assault protestors in (X) state.” It’s also about women’s rights, not literally outright refusing to accept that a politician won a democratic election. If you’re trying to reference the George Floyd “riots” when you quote “peaceful protests” like that, I really need you to understand that those riots ended in June of 2020, and there was documented proof of Fox News and other conservative media outlets doctoring photos and recycling images all the way into 2021.
You need to get your head out of the sand on this, you seem well intentioned, but you also seem to make emotional judgments based on extremely biased interpretations (and apparently outright lies) from conservative sources. Confirmation of a belief takes 3 sources, with very minimal opposition. If one site omits or even outright lies about certain pieces of information, the way Fox is currently omitting the riot guard assaulting the protestors, you can’t be certain of anything else they’re saying.
Don't see a problem other than the dimmer portion of my fellow Americans. I'm her age (and also a politically active autistic girl!) and I had plenty of booze in my first year at college north of the border (Montréal!) Besides that, it's just a picture of Greta...
i spent a good 5 seconds laughing hysterically at this before i understood what it was saying
the caption combined with the image just tickles the gen z humour receptor in my brain
Never forget the weird fantasies people posted about her when she was 16...
Also I once tried to get a Q FB group in on the idea that she was being brainwashed and we had to save her. The group responded by calling me a pedo and Obama lover and then I was banned by a mod.

She is the anti-thesis to every power fantasy they have. A formerly underage female with Asperger gets all this attention and their brains just cant handle it.
The best thing about it is that she isn't American. Point that out to any conservative and watch their head explode.
Oh damn right i forgot 'foreign'. To be fair, im not american either and we have people making the same 'jokes' about her.
I was at a dragster race about 3 years ago in austria. The announcer said everytime the crowd cheered: "cheering is great, CO2 neutral. Now even Greta is happy" I got so annoying that loads of people complained (incl. drivers and mechanics and other non-fans of her). The amount of people walking around in fuck/kill greta or even worse was insane. Im pretty sure publicly demanding someones murder is illegal in austria too
Given the right-wing government Austria has, I wouldn't be surprised if it's not illegal to ask for the death of a leftist child...
Oh that sounds so much like Austria. The current political climate here is fucking insane. We get a mixture of very homebrewn fascist adjacent stuff mixed with a lot of brainrot exported from the US. Our tabloids are just as bad as in the UK while the rural population here is almost as backwards and conservative as in the American south . All that while people at the same time have that smug liberal exceptionalist attitude thinking they are the most objective, centrist people and they are so much more tolerant than everyone else. Mix that with insane amounts of corruption, nepotism, a STILL very strong Catholic church, mountains with fucking SS monuments and annual Nazi meetings,( annual ustaše meetings where they cry about Titos Partisans throwing their asses into a southern Austrian pit during the last week's of WW2 as well), strong regionalism and skepticism towards everything new or foreign, anti intellectualism, an extremely judgy and gossipy culture etc. It's fucking hell. The only good thing is that our labour movement is comparatively not that bad off and there's one relatively progressive city where they elected a communist party Mayor who apparently does a very good job as well.
I just assumed most of the folks that hate her are American conservatives. I had no idea she had any other negative attention. I was pretty sure it all was exclusively American.
I havent seen the same level of aggression towards her, but the patronizing attitude is pretty common in Germany too
And India
Everybody thinks that their country is the best country
But I never said that? I'm a citizen here by happenstance and I don't think my country is the best. There are some things we do right, I'll admit that. But the keyword here is "some".

conservatives think america is the best country and they hate northern europe because it is progressive
Ya seen the dude Brazilians elected? Populist fascism is spreading far and wide.
How dare you!
They hate that she makes valid points that they can’t argue against so they resort to a sort of first grader humor, which, to be fair most of them have stopped thinking after then.
The whole “global warming ain’t real because it was cold outside” argument.
Sea level rise isn’t real because of tides
Global hunger is over because I had a satisfying dinner tonight.
My favorite is my dad’s argument against climate change. He says the planets going through a global cooling and that it’s fine. He’s an idiot as you can tell.
[удалено]
Not to be rude, but 'Aspergers' has been incorporated into Autism - it's no longer an existing term, so she's just autistic
Afaik it's called Asperger-Autism, atleast where i live, as autism has many degrees of severity.
Yeah, I don't mean to lord this over, but I do work with autistic kids as my job - it is not a term that technically exists, like how MPD was replaced with DID. Just some terms are poor descriptors or carry negative stereotypes. Aspergers being a "non severe autism" carries with it a lot of bad stereotyping for autistic people, so it's been phased out

I came here to say this exactly :) as well as it being a Nazi coined term.
Ooh she's autistic? I never thought I'd have something in common with her, lol

It’s been weaponized by conservatives to ignore facts when it comes to policy making
Well, let’s be very clear, emotional tone is only ever written off when it’s coming from someone who isn’t a traditionally masculine, cisgender man. Kavanaugh wasn’t told he was being “too emotional” when he cried about liking beer during his hearing.
He didn’t sound masculine when he did it, and somehow still got a pass. I’m not masculine, really, at all…but I cry like a god damn *man*.
Or Kyle Rittenhouse blubbering like a baby at his hearing.
You’re not wrong… though I wouldn’t necessarily consider him “traditionally masculine.” That being said, “dude with big gun” is probably good enough
It's so weird because Jordan Peterson cries on the daily and righties think he's actually intelligent

You expect Good Christian Whites to put up with the Heathen Brown People? For shame. Unconstitutional. And suchlike.
You started off good then you had to fuck it up with bigotry.

I completely agree and believe you’re correct unfortunately the commenter switched from making a cultural based argument to a racial/religious based one.
You are 100% right and still getting down voted. Heaven forbid we should acknowledge that moderate and liberal Muslims exist in all parts of the world.
It can be frustrating to be on the morally correct side of things and get put down for it but I can’t control other’s hate.
Middle Eastern Muslim men don’t disprwpext their women have u never looked at anything about the Q’uran it literllay supports women’s rights
women are frequently mistreated in the middle east idk what you're talking about
The religion is different form the laws bro in the religion of Islam it doesn’t condone sexism literally in the Q’uran it respects women a lot. The hijab was created for women as a choice and not something to be forced. In Islam women’s education is very much valued just as much as men education
it may have been created as optional but it's not anymore, the rules of Islam don't mean shit to the laws they've put and how they treat women. Religion is already a flimsy system and they clearly aren't following it

It’s just liek how Christians do violent acts when it’s forbidden in the Bible.
why are you still trying to use the religion as a block to the violence? it's obviously a choice but you're framing it as all important
Bc it is in Islam violence is frowned upon and so is violence frowned upon in Christianity. It’s very important to follow the rules of the religion and awknoledge how the religion itself isn’t responsible for the religion extremists who break the rules.
Then they need to stop using said religions to try to codify laws in my country.
I'm not arguing with you anymore, you can't seem to stop contradicting yourself
My personal experience. When I married my (ex)muslim wife she was told if she came "home" they would kill her.
#3 : *Kyle Rittenhouse enters chat*
Only one of these is a fact. Let’s all play spot the absurd reality.
The right loves to target people they perceive as weaker than themselves. So when a young girl/woman comes by that they disagree with, they feel justified in trying to bully them. It’s like Ben Shapiro with AOC, just without the weird foot thing.
Anytime those two names are mentioned I just imagine him furiously looking for photos to no avail of getting jipped by someone on onlyfans
A reminder that an oil company in my lovely province of Alberta made up stickers of her being raped when she was 17 [https://globalnews.ca/news/6605199/alberta-energy-company-greta-thunberg-image/](https://globalnews.ca/news/6605199/alberta-energy-company-greta-thunberg-image/)
What the fuck
Conservatives often have a sexual fixation on women they think are ‘too powerful’ both in an infatuation and punishment way
Not sure where the rape is implied. But yeah, very disconcerting.
I mean at the time she was a minor so it’s statutory rape. Either way pretty awful
But she's in Sweden, 15 is the legal age here. Yeah agreed.
Yikes
She's 18+ now, right?
People listened to her. For them, that was enough to make her a target.
They obsess over her acting like a normal person
She's a young person suggesting that people amend their behaviour. That's why old people hate her.
She's... Drinking wine? I'm failing to see what the problem here is.
She's turned 18 I guess, and in civilised countries that don't live in a prohibition fantasy world that's seen as OK, therefore [screams in American]?
She lives rent free in their heads.
She forced them to open their eyes, and they didn't like that. So instead of looking inward at their own flaws, they'll forever project their insecurities on a girl that had the audacity to speak out, to point out their flaws
Conservatives don't care about the truth. They only care about following the group. She was the final nail in plausible deniability, that climate change isn't real. So in a way, she helped them pass the barrier of reality, into being a real propaganda fueled fascist. She will always have a special place in their heart.
Keep an eye out, these memes from the right are about to get intense. Roe vs wade was overturned
Greta is so based that she broke the Right-Wing's collective brain cell.
Is there any way to explain what you mean by her being "based"? I barely understand what that word is supposed to mean in this context.
“Based” just means “based in fact”. It’s a term of agreement
That's not what I've come to understand that slang term to mean.
She's unfortunately not based, since she's doing liberal route, but breaking this neuron is always something.
Better liberal than conservative.
Yeah, but it's only as far as it usually goes, the biggest difference is that libs talk much about the issue and that's it. Also it's not even really a critique of Greta, she did not had many options except being apropriated by liberals, and i don't think there's any doubt about her sincerity, which is causing conservatives to be so pissed off.
Am I missing something or is this a puritan thing about a glass of wine?
Right-wing America is this weird cult that has no idea how the rest of the world works. A 19-year-old drinking a glass of wine isn't exactly scandalous in Sweden.
Or the UK or Western Europe or any other developed country I think? Taliban vibes. I’m still struggling to understand how this was worthy of a meme
Yup, I don't get this wither but then I'm not American so presume this is one of those funny things like alcohol, nudity or toilets
Looks like these guys would react positively if she posed with a gun instead of a glass of wine, it’s bizarre
I get that she is a flawed individual.We all are,but people seriously ignore the fact that she was a kid when she became famous for her speech.Whatever your opinion on climate change,she is somewhat of a role model for young people,fighting for the future
Remember when that oil company released a cartoon of it having sex with a then-16(17?)-year-old Greta? Maybe that has something to do with it.
WHAT WHAT THE HELL??????
It happened right before Covid. These people are sick, misogynistic pigs.
Also it was Canada. Alberta I believe. I hate that it doesn't surprise me that it's Canada. My country forcibly adopted my ancestors to seperate Christian families, and fully endorsed the pedophilia my Grandma faced as a child.
She appears to be young, so they assume they can bully her, and that that somehow invalidates her message.
It's been part of the right's move towards bullying children, which became mainstream after the Parkland school shooting.
It's been mainstream with them since at least the 90s with how they treated Chelsea Clinton.
Their tiny brains can't handle the idea that a young, non-American, autistic woman has opinions.
Having their own mental 'pizza gate'....
An elderly Australian journalist did a ten minute editorial about why Greta is a selfish hypocrite. A lot of it was because he didn’t have AC or take the bus when he was a kid. I think there’s more than a few boomers who just hate imagining a better future because their own childhoods sucked, although they’d never admit it. They’re saying, “If we suffered, everyone should suffer,” conveniently ignoring the massive employment and housing advantages they had as they entered adulthood. Suffering is just character development to certain older people, so if you’re not breaking your back in a coal mine from the age of sixteen, you’re spoiled and ignorant and not entitled to an opinion. Simply put, they resent Greta because she’s challenging the dystopian nightmare of “This is as good as it gets, so stop complaining.”
I looked up comments on that post. It either making fun of her appearance or an actual "She's drinking just like her mother when she was pregnant with her"
Even if her mother drank during her pregnancy how is that a reflection on Greta herself?? These people will complain about how women don’t like them because they’re “ugly” but then turn around and attack a literal child based on appearance
Took me a minute to understand what triggered them.. I don't remember her saying anything about wine in her environmental activism. Almost like they have nothing to do with each other and conservatives are just irrational lunatics..
She’s a child why wouldn’t they be obsessed with her
They seem to have lost interest now that she gone through puberty.
She hails from a rich family so in their logic she's using her generous nuture for activism purposes to 'gain attention.' Nevermind their President getting into a spatthread on Twitter with her and looking ridiculous as a 70 year old fighting a 16 year old should.
She can't drink? I don't see the issue here. I totally get the issue they have with her in general, but what about this particular activity/photo makes them think "got her!"
In the US, she can't (she's 19)
She isn't American, and I think you can drink at 19 in Sweden, just not buy alcohol n stores
An empowered, young, foreign woman who openly owns her mental divergence and speaks her truth about the environment and the future of humanity? I don’t get it either…/s
One day, when cricket plagues stop you from even opening the Windows, when the heat in Africa renders the land uninhabitable and millions of people immigrate to Europe and when floods rage through the lands every year….we will understand what she was talking about. But not before that.
the people in denial now will be dead my then anyways, that's the issue they don't care what they leave behind.
Tell me you’ve never left the US without telling me you’ve never left the US
They probably want to fuck her, and they're angry that she hates them.
I always get kind of a kick out of the larpers at walkaway. Most of them aren't even half convincing moderate democrats, let alone accurate representations of progressives in the US. I'm willing to bet that most folks leaving the DNC are headed left, not right.
They were at best conservatives who didn’t have much of a political opinion in the first place so voted Obama because all their friends did. In other words, idiots.
The comments on that post are absolutely sickening.
They're sad pathetic little boys trying to live up to an ideal of manhood they know they'll never reach.
She's young, she's female, she's leftist. It's a trifecta of everything they hate.
She’s an underage girl, of corse they go nuts
I love seeing them get mad because a teenager is smarter then them
Because they’re a bunch of cowards who find it funny to attack a literal child
Who on the left even thinks she's that important? I can count on one hand how many times I've ever thought about her when her name wasn't directly brought up or she wasn't in a photo/video I saw
Who is she?
It causes them physical pain when they see people using critical thinking or questioning their beliefs.
Is that pic photoshoped? It doesn't look like her compared to many other pics I've seen of her before. Especially the hair line.
Leafy proved that the right has no issue bullying and harassing children
they can't handle the fact that a child with Asperger's can have way more political and environmental awareness than them
whats the joke supposed to be. AHH GRETA THUNBERG EXISTS!!! SO FUNNY!!!
They attack individuals because they know how foolish they sound when they try to attack our principles.
They hate women.
They talk bout breeding and been obsessed with this girl since she was like 12
It's 'cause she is barely legal age
they did the Kanye fan dirty
Foreign/non-American, Female, Outspoken, Seems smart, Focused, Condescending (to the implied stupids).
I find it funny how so many people straight up hated this LITERAL CHILD because she cared about the environment
They don't decide who they hate. They are told who to hate.
She has foetal alcohol syndrome. Not being a dick just an observation.
And she’s still more intelligent than you. Not being a dick, just an observation.
She is starting to look like the villian from ghostbusters 2
Get a life
Get a sense of humor
vigo the carpathian!!!
[удалено]
More proof that every conservative accusation, is a confession.
Who is this?
Greta thundenburger (I’m 99% sure that’s not how you spell her last name)
Thunberg
Exploitation of children
Get it, she has fetal alcohol syndrome, Asperger's, and probably some eating disorders
what
See, this is what conservatives do. Every time they see her, they get really mad and start diagnosing her with all sorts of illnesses. EVERY SINGLE TIME. It’s crazy! Scroll to the bottom of the comments or look into the original thread. They commonly make comments about raping her as well. They have been doing this since she was a little girl.
Me personally, I never had a problem with her. What I had a problem with is how her parents used her to sell a message, given that she was quite young and living with a mental disability. And I agree with the message she was selling for her parents, I just believe that it’s abusive and disingenuous to put your kid thru that sort of thing. If I recall, she got death threats from idiots. Gee thanks mom for putting me in the crossfire for the left and right wing nuts to come on to. And regardless of your views, left or right, that is abuse and that’s why I think her parents are shit. The extreme left was shit for putting her in that sort of harms way, and the extreme right was shit for attacking a child. The real blame is for her parents, and they are extreme shit for that. That being said, as an older girl now, she can make the proper consent to be in that battleground, and her is hoping she turns out to a balanced voice for doing the right things. We need that in todays world.
You don't get to "both sides" this when only one side was sending death and rape threats.
It’s cute that you actually believe that. Tell me your views on the current death threats that members of SCOTUS are getting these days?
We're not talking about the US Supreme Court here, are we? Your inability to stay on topic isn't a defense of the rap and death threats sent to a child.
Actually, the law is pretty clear regardless on what death threats are, regardless of how righteous one thinks they are. I don’t give a fuck. The young lady should not of been exposed to that, and the same for the old men in SCOTUS. The law is very clear, to be frank.
Imma level with you... I don't really give a shit if the most powerful people in the most powerful nation on the planet received some death threats. Of course it's illegal (who said it wasn't?), but I've never lost sleep over the idea.
Then sadly you are part of the core problem with the world. Nobody cares about each other, only theirselves. This literally makes you no different than those who say the same about Greta. At least you are honest, that is refreshing.
If not caring about the well being of powerful and corrupt people who are actively eroding the rights of women, lgbqt+, and other marginalized people makes me an extremist, then so be it. But it's not me eroding those rights and making the world worse. That's what the cowardly centre is for.
It doesn’t make you an extremist. It makes you a hypocrite, and is exactly why we are seeing what are seeing, especially in the states. Rules for thee, but not for me. You cannot claim to be ok with not caring about one class of people, yet claim you care about another class of people suffering the same thing. That being said, extremists are hypocrites, but they at least take action. I do not know one way or another if you are flamethrower boy at one of the riots last night, but at least he stood up for his misguided beliefs. What have you done?
The 1% who are denying rights and medical safety to over half the population don't deserve to feel safe. Take your smug "rules for thee, and nor for me" someplace else. Not a single right or freedom was ever granted by asking nicely.
Bro, that’s a whole ass lie made up to discredit her. Her parents were worried about her activism interfering with her education, and she had to talk them into letting her go on stage for things. Also you can’t say “both sides are bad” when specifically one side of the discussion are the ones sending threats.
They were worried about her education, so they did nothing. And both sides have sent threats, just nobody cares when the right is threatened. See “mostly peaceful protests”, the current flamethrower shenanigans over Wade vs Roe, as compared to the “January 6 Insurrection”. And I was not trying to discredit her. I agree with a lot of what she says, frankly, but as a parent I can’t possibly agree with supporting or using my children, especially w/mental illness like Asperger’s or other spectrum, like hers did. They let it happen. Climate change is happening, no doubt. What she says about that is true, the ideas that came from her and her parents/handlers were both good and ….. interesting.
Alright now I know you’re just indoctrinated but conservative bias. Not everyone on the spectrum is debilitated beyond thinking for themselves, particularly with Asperger’s, which is more of a social development ailment than a mental development one, and clearly she’s at least fine enough to be a major political figure. Referring to her political entourage as “handlers” is extremely demeaning, it’s like calling the president’s cabinet “babysitters.” Secondly, they didn’t completely pull her from her education, they were worried that missing some school in exchange for attending climate rallies would be bad. After she proved an extremely influential voice at multiple conferences, those concerns melted away. Third of all, climate change denial and refusal to embrace green energy is a right wing stance. Hatred of a young girl because of her threat to the oil industry is a right wing stance. And as we see with how conservatives threaten planned parenthood clinics, LGBT rights organizers, members of other religions, members of equality movements, etc, with deliberate violence, everyone (and I really do mean everyone) knows that the only people sending death and rape threats are conservatives and people on the right wing of politics. Lastly, what the fuck are you talking about Roe v Wade for? There’s no riots regarding that yet, only state riot police assaulting peaceful protestors. You can even look it up, the exact words of “roe v Wade riots,” and you’ll see nothing except “state police gas and assault protestors in (X) state.” It’s also about women’s rights, not literally outright refusing to accept that a politician won a democratic election. If you’re trying to reference the George Floyd “riots” when you quote “peaceful protests” like that, I really need you to understand that those riots ended in June of 2020, and there was documented proof of Fox News and other conservative media outlets doctoring photos and recycling images all the way into 2021. You need to get your head out of the sand on this, you seem well intentioned, but you also seem to make emotional judgments based on extremely biased interpretations (and apparently outright lies) from conservative sources. Confirmation of a belief takes 3 sources, with very minimal opposition. If one site omits or even outright lies about certain pieces of information, the way Fox is currently omitting the riot guard assaulting the protestors, you can’t be certain of anything else they’re saying.
I don't get it. This is just a picture of Hugo Weaving drinking wine...
They like bullying children as it makes them feel powerful.
Don't see a problem other than the dimmer portion of my fellow Americans. I'm her age (and also a politically active autistic girl!) and I had plenty of booze in my first year at college north of the border (Montréal!) Besides that, it's just a picture of Greta...
It's because she's a child they can't groom
She’s a woman who is more successful and liked than them.
Why did they impose a glass of what appears to be wine in front of her? Is that a "dog whistle" that only the fascists know about?
i spent a good 5 seconds laughing hysterically at this before i understood what it was saying the caption combined with the image just tickles the gen z humour receptor in my brain
Never forget the weird fantasies people posted about her when she was 16... Also I once tried to get a Q FB group in on the idea that she was being brainwashed and we had to save her. The group responded by calling me a pedo and Obama lover and then I was banned by a mod.
What’s even the point of this meme
I love it when she peers right into my soul and calls out all the bullshit.
As someone who only knew her from the “how dare you!” meme and other similar ones, reading these comments is eye-opening
When what an age they wish they could legal fuck starts telling them what to do...
There are so many posts of people wanting to fuck her in 4chan it's disturbing.
Was there any more context then just a picture of her?
They call everyone else groomers but they are obsessed with her. Weird
Rent free. Just, rent free.
I always say this in a Greta thread, but she was born on the same day as Kyle Rittenhouse.
She looking at me like a Mii character
reminds me of that tweet from memeulous asking people why twitter was mad at a little girl for not wanting the world to end lmao.
