The Revelation of Greta: no heavens behind the heavens

I am wondering how much what she said was her words and what was given to her by who.

Sorting out enviroment issues is one thing taking on capitalism is another. Yes she is blunt but is she being manipulated by others to push their agenda.

You know what

I have my own theory on this climate change

However I have absolutely no evidence except all these science program I have seen throughout the years which have made me come up with this theory of my own.

I know one thing ripping up capitalism will not solve the problem.

Sure it will, just look at how clean and void of any environmental disaster the socialist countries have been.....

The thing this idiot fails to see is people just gravitate toward the easiest way to do anything regardless of what social class, or government, they belong to. When you're starving you do anything it takes.

Ripping up capitalism will not solve the problem, right. Not that i think that anyone could or wanted, for that matter.
Also hard to tackle her since she is not a typical politician.

Imho she is no hypocrite since she honestly believes what she says, right or wrong. I really think she herself has this opinion, no need to put words into her by parents or teachers. She is just too young not to pose questions she thinks are vital, instead of resigning and giving up.

Who do you think "put" this opinion in her head? Education has been captured by the left.

The Tragedy Of Greta Thunberg

Quote:

Sixteen-year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg lives in the healthiest, wealthiest, safest, and most peaceful era humans have ever known. She is one of the luckiest people to have ever lived.

In a just world, Thunberg would be at the United Nations thanking capitalist countries for bequeathing her this remarkable inheritance. Instead, she, like millions of other indoctrinated kids her age, act as if they live in a uniquely broken world on the precipice of disaster. This is a tragedy.

Quote:

And Thunberg’s dream for the future means technocratic regimes will have to displace capitalistic societies. We can see this future in the radical environmentalist plans of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s New Green Deal, one supported by leading Democratic Party candidates. It’s authoritarianism. There is no other way to describe a regulatory regime that dictates exactly what Americans can consume, sell, drive, eat, and work on.

Could well be the case but either way it is a hard one to call.

I would point out that if you criticise, you would be attacked for doing so, with allegations of being biggoted against disabled/young/female people, being a heretic for not subscribing to the most radical climate change related beliefs possible, even if you only criticised her statements, not her character or person and made a reasoned, sourced argument.

^ True.
On the other side there a lot of people already despising or looking down upon challenged persons (for the lack of a better word) by pure gut feeling, and are searching for arguments that sound reasonable (to serve their already existing point of view).
