Free Greta Thunberg From Her Cruel Political Exploitation By Leftists
2019-09-12
[Townhall] Leave that poor Swedish kid alone, you climate hoax-mongering ghouls. Stop hiding behind Greta Thunberg’s Pippi Longstocking braids and come out and push your damnable globaloney warming lies yourself, jerks. Free Greta.

There’s no excuse, none, for this shameless and despicable exploitation of a vulnerable girl. What kind of person would do that to a child? The kind that considers other people collateral damage in their quest for a leftist utopia. Everyone else gets to pick up the pieces when our useless elite breaks a few eggs along the way. Big Chief Warren, Totally-Not-Doddering Joe and the rest of the Democrat clown carpool have all signed on to banning fracking, which would literally strip the livelihood from 10 million (non-blue coastal city-dwelling and Democrat-voting) Americans, so you can be sure the left won’t hesitate to sacrifice this terrified Scandinavian child to their meteorological Moloch.

Now, making her the face of the CLIMATE EMERGENCY NO TIME TO THINK HAND OVER YOUR MONEY AND YOUR FREEDOM OR DIE DIE DIE campaign does demonstrate a certain demonic brilliance. When an adult says something ridiculous, you can come back and say, "Hey stupid, that’s ridiculous." But when the climate fraudsters go all Edgar Bergan with their adolescent Charlie McCarthy, that takes off the table the kind of vicious mockery adults pushing this bogus agenda deserve.

...She’s not a visionary. She’s not magical. She’s a kid, a special kid with special needs, and despite the intensity of the feelz the adults around her have forced upon her ‐ her condition likely making her especially vulnerable to their doomsaying ‐ she has nothing of value to say about how we run our country.

Nothing, because she’s a child, and regardless of the intensity of the feelings her puppetmasters have generated within her, her policy prescriptions deserve zero attention. None. Not because she’s a bad kid. Because she’s a kid, period.

#7  People with special needs. I get it they deserve our sympathy and courtesy. But the trend she is selfishly introducing into schools all over the world is not acceptable.

It's the school strike concept - teaching the very young the advantages and perks of activism, earning grades, cred and soon money by refusing to go to school and marching in front of professional lobbyists and mercenary politicians.

She has no right to do this to other people, her activism is not a poor stricken creature's 15 minute run, but a deliberate campaign to further a political career, like that Hogg brat.

#6  In case you missed it; brutally honest in a Pat Condell sort of way so maybe discretion where it is viewed? Worth the 15 minutes.



The whole thing is Smollet Ridiculous and absolutely nothing people can connect to - rich Scandi couple with special needs child have a yacht custom built and equipped with the latest technology take a one month cruise across 1/4 of the planet to be greeted by New York's ultra elite to lecture the people about their lunch choices...by a special needs child.

And if case you have not seen the video, there is the excellent observation that a 16 year old is not a child; a 9 year old is a child a 16 year old is a young adult, and that though she is 16 she is being presented as a child.

#5  Actually, I've seen very little coverage of this poor child either here or even in the Swedish media. Maybe I've missed it, but using her for a publicity stunt appears to have missed the mark.

#4  It isn't her, its her pimp parents and their pushers, and those fug pickers are taking years of public relations work and good will from the Asberger/Down Syndrome community. They should all be placed in stocks.

#3  Actually, if she has Asperger's, she might have math ability.

#2  The left always frees its useful idiots when it's done with them. It's usually quick and brutal...
