Trump tweet feud with a 16 yr old

[Guest]

Greta Tunberg:

“we will make sure we put world leaders against the wall' if they fail to take urgent action on climate change.”

I'm confused..Greta Thurnberg took to the International stage to call out World Leaders with“How dare you” steal “my dreams and my childhood with your empty words” while “people are dying” and the world is in the “beginning of a mass extinction." So, her opinion is valued enough to be a keynote speaker at the Climate Change Summit...but because of her age..can't be questioned? Really? In fairness, I liked Trump's original tweet just after her speech better:
"She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future, so nice"
A number of World Leaders have also called Greta out btw..not just Trump.

Hiding your ideas behind a child is much like the terrorist using children as human shields.  If your ideas are strong they can stand up to a little evidence countering them.  No need to use a child to deliver them.  Let them stand on their own.  The left had no issues going after the Covington kids, but are "clutching their pearls" that someone dare to disagree with a child parroting some questionable data.

if you seriously find yourself agreeing with this President to bully a 16 year old, find it funny, you are a fucking loser and part of the problem. 

America is a joke because of people like you

THAT was my whole point

Has nothing to do with whether you agree with her or not

Our president is, and has been his entire "visible" life, a childish shitbag with less ethics than a rabid weasel.  His "attacks" were overblown, but still classless.

Greta is basically tragic in that she's being shown like a pony at a fair...but has accomplished nothing of note.  A teenager throwing fits and skipping school?  That's most teenagers, at some point.  She's not the first to snarl about the environment, not the first young'un to fret about it and the future (most of us got to wonder if we'd be nuked by the USSR growing up), but she's the new media darling that can be guilelessly defended by her enabler club.

Boyan Slat, whose machines are now cleaning trash from ocean waters, is exponentially more deserving of awards and attention than Greta.  So is every Hong Kong protester fighting for freedom, so is anyone bringing power, water, or education to truly desolate places on Earth.  Their stories are out there, but Greta is the "it girl" for the easily entertained.

I cant ever get a tweet to post. Did yall see her with a photo of her complaining about being forced to sit on the floor of a german train.  Germany’s train folks called her out because she had a first class ticket. 

Everything about this chick is propoganda.

If You Can’t Sell Your Hysteria to Adults, Try Kids

Brainwashing is easier with teens and tweens. Just ignore that it’s child abuse.The entire American Left — the mainstream media, the environmentalist movement, and Democratic politicians in particular — are celebrating the involvement of teenagers and even younger children in protesting the world’s “inaction” with regard to global warming.
And not just the American Left, of course. The Left throughout the world is celebrating. A 16-year-old Swedish girl whose contempt for adults is breathtaking is an international hero. Congressional Democrats invited her to testify in Congress, and the United Nations likewise invited her.

The mayor and city council of New York City further politicized their city’s public schools by allowing students to skip school to actively participate in a global-warming protest.
The message of young climate change activists is: “You adults aren’t doing your job. As a result, we have no future.” As a sympathetic reporter — are there any non-sympathetic reporters? — for the Los Angeles Times put it, “teens are still waiting for a sign that their elders get it.”
The Times’ coverage is typical. It reported:

Underneath the activism lies a simple truth: Young people are incredibly scared about climate change. They see it as a profound injustice and an existential threat to their generation and those that will follow.
“It’s hard to not feel hopeless because it feels inevitable,” said 16-year-old Lana Perice. …

“They do worry, and they worry kind of a lot,” said Maria Ojala, an environmental psychologist at Orebro University in Sweden.
Arielle Martinez Cohen remembers reading a report from an Australian think tank that warned the human species could face extinction by 2050 if society doesn’t get its act together.
“That gives me chills and scares the heck out of me,” said Arielle, an 18-year-old from Los Angeles and an activist with the youth climate group Zero Hour. “I go to bed thinking about it.” …
“I almost imagine, like, an apocalypse-type thing happening” Arielle said.
Many young people say they can’t fathom bringing kids of their own into the world. …
“It’s not ethical. It’s literally a burning house,” Lana said.
“That’s something that’s not realistic,” agreed her twin sister, Yena.
And how can they even think about college or contemplate their careers when faced with so much uncertainty?
“It’s something I feel every single day,’ Yena said. ‘I work really hard at school and I do all these things, and I’m like, “What am I working for? Do I have a future?”

It is critical to remember that hysterias — such as Russian collusion with the Trump campaign, “endemic and systemic racism in America,” the heterosexual AIDS “crisis” in America and the “rape culture” on American college campuses — are to the Left what oxygen is to biological life. No oxygen, no life; no hysteria, no Left.

Apparently, however, the left-wing hysteria about global warming leading to the virtual extinction of life on Earth has not moved enough adults. Many adults who do not deny that Earth is getting warmer — such as Danish writer and environmentalist thinker Bjorn Lomborg — do deny that the threat is “existential” and do believe that the Left’s solutions, such as the Green New Deal, will damage the world far more than will carbon emissions.
Proof that the Left is hysterical is its unwillingness to promote nuclear power — a completely clean, non-fossil-fuel-based source of power. It provides France with 70 percent of its energy. Anyone who really believes life on Earth is endangered would grasp at the nuclear-power lifeboat. That they do not proves what many of us have believed from the beginning: The “existential threat” scenario is another left-wing falsehood used to whip up hysteria that will lead to the Left’s control of the economy and society.

And that takes us back to the children: If you can’t sell your hysteria to adults, try kids. And that is what the Left has done. After all, no one is as malleable or as easily indoctrinated as children.
Consider this: If the Left didn’t tell them the world is going to end, they wouldn’t worry about it. They’d be enjoying their young lives, maybe even learning to appreciate that they live in the freest country at the most prosperous time in human history. Instead, thanks to leftists (who are children in adult bodies), they live in their grip of “existential eco-anxiety.”
This is but one more way in which the Left abuses children (along with telling them they are neither boys nor girls but whatever they choose to be; teaching them contempt for their country; and depriving them of the greatest source of morality, meaning, community, and happiness — any of the Judeo-Christian religions).

It’s depressing, and it’s frightening.

The scariest movies are those featuring brainwashed children. This horror show is happening in real life.
