#7 when do we get to burn the new Joan D'Arc at the stake?

I don't even wish ill on a marxist idiot, as long as they just go away. If St. Greta is martyred, it will probably be by another angry leftist who stews over the fact that they too are angry but are not getting any attention.

#8 Since Communism leads to environmental disaster and capitalism leads to the eventual clean-up of the environment perhaps the Climate Hawks should re-evaluate their prescriptions if they want to be taken seriously.

#12 When Greta starts getting into the face of China, let me know. Until then she's not relevant.

#13 Confucius say, "Sure, we like Greta,
Though couldn't care less about weather,
'Cos pills made from bile
Of a cute gweilo child
Guaranteed to make Chinese feel better!"
