I saw on Twitter a well-intentioned, normally rational priest say he was sad, right before he admonished Trump, because he, Trump, dared to tease ignorant brat Greta Thunberg. She was too young, or whatever, to undergo the mild insult. Trump suggested she should take a vacation.
I won’t link to the white-knighting priest because I’m sure he doesn’t need the grief. But he should take cheer, because ignorant brat Greta will likely spare the priest when she leads her bloody purge of her enemies.
Yes. The leftist force is strong in this one. “Greta Thunberg told cheering protesters today ‘we will make sure we put world leaders against the wall’ if they fail to take urgent action on climate change.”
She said: ‘Unfortunately, we probably already know the outcome. World leaders are still trying to run away from their responsibilities but we have to make sure they cannot do that.
‘We will make sure that we put them against the wall and they will have to do their job to protect our futures.’
Now this foolish young untutored stupid embarrassment of a female creature, who has memorized a handful of lies and exaggerations pushed on her by an media comprised of nefarious social justice warriors, an incorrigible child who could not define vorticity if her life depended on it, encourages her nitwit followers to line their enemies up against the wall.
This brat needs to be sent to bed early without her cell phone. More than that, the cynical manipulative adults who are using this ignorant child to further their dark political goals need to be take out behind the woodshed—and given a lecture on responsible citizenship.
She said: ‘It is not fair that the older generation are handing over the responsibility to solve this crisis to us young people who have not started this crisis. It’s not fair that we have to do all this.
‘The adults are behaving as if there is no tomorrow but there is a tomorrow, it is the tomorrow where our young people will live and we have to fight for that tomorrow. ‘We can no longer take that tomorrow for granted.’
Greta added that the next decade ‘will define our future.’
She said: ‘What we decide to do or not to do in this decade we will have to live with for the rest of our lives.
The crow reportedly ate that up. The well-fed, well-clothed, pampered spoiled mollycoddled perpetually indulged malcontented crowd ate that up. Look at the pictures in the article. None appear starved, distressed, or under any duress. They are also dressed against the cold. They are not in shorts. The predictions of unrelenting heat, and all that follows from that heat, have not come true.
Yet they still believe these predictions, or rather the theory behind it, which is that the earth is pure and that man needs socialism. They believe because they want to believe, because they need to believe.
There will be the odd zealot in that crowd who worships dirt, but these characters are a minority. The real impetus behind global warming, as I have said for many years, is that “solution” to global warming. That is what these people want, that is why they cheer the ignorant brat Greta Thunberg.
They too think life is not “fair”. By “not fair” they mean they want more stuff, and they are increasingly willing to take what they want.
You’ll notice there a not a lot, or any, family men in these crowds, men with young families who want work so that they can do their duty. Instead, ignorant brat Greta followers are mostly well off, relatively speaking. Meaning that most have had what is these called an “education”.
Which proves “education” makes people stupid.
Anyway, ignorant brat Greta realized she might have—just might have—gone too far this time. For she took to Twitter to walk back her firing squad rhetoric:
Yesterday I said we must hold our leaders accountable and unfortunately said “put them against the wall”. That’s Swenglish: “att stalla nagon mot vaggen” (to put someone against the wall) means to hold someone accountable. That’s what happens when you… (1/2)
That’s what happens when you’re an ignorant brat speaking of matters beyond your ken? No. She continued:
… improvise speeches in a second language.
But of course I apologise if anyone misunderstood this. I can not enough express the fact that I – as well as the entire school strike movement- are against any possible form of violence. It goes without saying but I say it anyway.
It doesn’t go without saying. And, given your latest train-ride-poverty stunt, we don’t believe you.

South Park had a bit of fun when someone remarked about Santa’s downer speech: “This is just like that Greta girl and Global Warming. Buzzkill!”
Gotta wonder where she thinks electricity comes from to warm and light her house in during those northern latitude winters or feed her electric car.
The Bee’s take:

The well-off, educated class is always the one that pushes socialism. You’d think that, with the popularity of “Les Mis,” your average person would realize that this goes back to the 1700s, if not before. The idealistic but clueless young people who have been taught they are the hope of the future think they know what is best for the working class — who often ARE being exploited — and do their best to destroy everything for everyone. And, of course, are often shocked to find out that the working class doesn’t want anything to do with their view of what’s best (because it’s usually to ensure they no longer exist).
The population control people are the same way. If everyone becomes exactly like them, the problem will be solved! They don’t care about race or nationality – they just don’t like poor, crass people tasteless enough to have lots of children, especially lots of poor children. If they can just eliminate the poor, the remaining people will naturally have few or no children. That was Margaret Sanger’s dream, it’s Bill and Melinda Gates’s dream, and of course it’s Planned Parenthood’s dream.
DAV: The electricity comes from hydro because St. Greta lives where a lot of hydro is available. Sure, the people in Africa can live in the dark, China can take all Viet Nam’s water and make hydro to look “green” but the Saint has plenty of lights and plenty of water, so she simply does not care. Drop her in the middle of an African hellhole, and get back to her in about six months. Her Twitter feed will go dark the first week with no way to recharge….Then we’ll see.
Briggs: Cut the Saint some slack. I do believe she actually did not understand what the translation meant. Worse yet, the fool probably used Google (Be Evil, you remember) for the translation. She’s a high school dropout for now, so that kind of goes against “education makes you stupid”. In her case, parents are trying to make her stupid for cash. They pimped her out. I do think she could be a smart kid if everyone left her alone and stopped using her. She also apparently lied with a twitter picture of herself sitting on the floor on a “over-crowded” train coming through Germany. The train line said she could have availed herself of the “reserved first class seat” she had and where the rest of the entourage was seated. I thought it interesting that she was alone with her bags on a train and it seems she was, but only for a photo op (maybe she learned that from Obama). She tried to make amends by adding that it was good the trains were full because people were using mass transit. I think reality may be creeping in and she’s not adequately insulated by her handlers. I’m sad that we can’t some way take her away and save her from the crazies that have her held hostage.
I know you’re venting, but I had to come up with a way to deal with St. Greta and her Time cover for my kids blog (climate4kids.blogspot.com). I chose to emphasize that Greta’s people stole the next generation’s childhood, not climate, and that lives today are the best ever in history. Sometimes, toning it down may be the way to go. I do understand venting, though. I truly do!! (No, I am not concerned that one is attacking a “child”. She opened herself to attack when she did her first “climate strike”. When a child takes on adults, pushback SHOULD happen.)
Is Greta the beginning of a new Hitler-type youth movement for climate purity? Sounds that way.

That poor kid has a variety of serious emotional problems, and probably (I think) suffers from extremely rigid thinking. It’s awful that adults have made her into their spokeschild, because she almost starved herself to death once BEFORE all the pressure of international fame. I am willing to believe that her parents encouraged her activism to keep her alive, and perhaps out of the desperate hope that she wasn’t ill — she was actually a brilliant prophet. At least at first, anyway. It’s hard to believe anything now but that they are either cynical or so caught up in the international craze that they can’t stop or turn back. But whatever the reason, she’s a kid, she’s been encouraged by powerful people all over the world to do this and to believe her worst fears are real, and very few grounded adults could withstand being treated that way. I really hope she doesn’t kill herself or end up an addict.
I’m NOT for cutting Great any slack for using a phrase she supposedly did not understand. No, this kid is savvier than most people are willing to give her credit for as she’s already learned that she MUST keep upping her rhetoric to more and more outrageous levels of outrage…to keep getting attention…and, it has worked. The problem with that is she’ll top-out with speech screeching and will have to resort to PR stunts. Stay tuned for Greta chains herself to a diesel truck…with tragic results.
They (the Greta Manipulation Consortium) don’t just want more stuff. They want to make sure that I have less stuff than They do, that They get to boss me around, that I admire and respect Them, or failing that at least that I fear Them.
If they just wanted more stuff they would hustle in the market place. Simple greed I can understand, this is worse.
“…We need that generation of young people who began to reach political maturity in the midst of a disciplined and desperate struggle against the bourgeoisie. In this struggle that generation is training genuine Communists; it must subordinate to this struggle, and link up with it, each step in its studies, education, and training.”

There’s more of a chance of a radical climate change occurring due to nature’s forces like the Yellowstone supervolcano erupting in the future than man made CO2 emissions. I don’t know where these people are coming from, considering that the weather man can’t predict for sure what the weather patterns will be like within the next week or so.
They can’t predict within 2 degrees Fahrenheit what the high temperature in Lansing will be tomorrow, but somehow they can predict what the average temperature of the whole world (what does that even mean?) will be ten years from now.
Perhaps we meekly accept Greta’s accusations because she doesn’t see that we are in fact guilty of a far worse crime that has nothing to do with CO2.
We doomed Greta’s generation by marrying late, not having enough children to replace ourselves (also forgetting that older parents produce a higher percentage of tards), then more than making up this shortfall by importing violent, low-IQ third-world immigrants.
The whites who survive this extinction event will have a patriarchial attitude toward women and a shoot-on-sight attitude toward diversity. Worse awaits our African-American friends, as blacks will cease to exist outside the tropics.
“I can not enough express the fact that I – as well as the entire school strike movement- are against any possible form of violence.” – Greta the barbarian
So, if you don’t mean to be violent, why do you use so many violent images? That wasn’t your first, and it was completely consistent with this one.
“We will start a revolution.” – Greta the Red
We may not have much to worry about from her and her truant brigade.

Also, I don’t believe she’s an aspe. They don’t particularly like to be the center of attention. And none of the ones I know are sociopaths.
I don’t follow this young lady’s activities very closely, but whenever I’ve heard one of her speeches she has simply asked that those in power listen to the scientists. She doesn’t claim any expertise herself. If I were to indulge in Briggs’ obsession with credentialism and argument from authority, I would point out that I am a physicist and he is not. And from that point of view, I would suggest that he try to remedy his manifest ignorance about climate science by taking the young lady’s advice.
“…I would point out that I am a physicist…” – Lee Phillips
Mhmm. Just a word of advice. Instead of waving your alleged diploma in my face, show me something of real value of you want my attention.
E.g., of what a real physicist says.

(NOTE – If they are lying about temps., what else are they lying about?)
And another.
“I would say that most of the competent physicists at good universities who have spent enough time to study the climate change issue are climate skeptics. A good example is Will Happer, an atomic physicist of Princeton.” – Lubos Motl (Physicist)
https://motls.blogspot.com/2012/05/will-happer-co2-friend-or-foe.html
So, as you can see from the above selection, there are “competent” physicists out there to listen to. But thanks for the free advice. It was as helpful as it cost.
I’ll be driving from Munich to Salzburg this Thursday. I’ll be looking for the Autobahn drivers with their ‘F Greta’ bumper stickers. Heard there are lots of them.
When I was her age, we had a proper scare, nukes. This climate change stuff is not a really scary one, as scary things go.
Should have left the brat a Glow-in-the-dark Stockholm, instead of a Vibrant one.
“of [sic] you want my attention”
Who the hell are you?
Yonason,
Ignore Lee. He’s what happens when the Gretas of the world become senile and only have a diploma to wave.
Is Matt off his bipolar medication yet again???
Who wants to know?
@DAV
Thanks. So far, it would appear as you write.
I went to his website and skimmed the aobut[(sic)there, saved him the trouble] section. He claims to have some serious credentials, and what would seem to be a strong engineering background. But he doesn’t write like any scientist or engineer I know. Something doesn’t add up?
“I do believe she actually did not understand what the translation meant.”
It means the same in both languages. Greta said that it means being held accountable, and in both languages putting them up against the wall is holding them accountable — by execution.

Not violent my tuchas! Antifa is nothing, if not violent.
Dear Matt,
Wow. Too much anger. Anger is a product of fear. Why are you afraid of GT? She is an abused child on the spectrum cruelly used by her father. She is not a savant or a genius. She is mentally and socially challenged. GT is a puppet in the truest sense.
What is strange, or notable, is that a movement allegedly driven by science would choose an autistic child as their spokesperson. You could direct your anger at GT’s “followers” who are actually prostituting her, but is anger appropriate?
The global warming alarmist leadership who “anointed” GT are neo-Communists/Fascists and their adherents who are hell-bent on authoritarian control of the so-called Free World. It is not a scientific revolution. It is attempted tyranny by an international cabal. Now that is something to fear for sure, but anger is ineffectual and sinful.
Matthew 5:44 — But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you…
That’s what Jesus said; that was his commandment. He never said it would be easy. He didn’t say it would win the earthly battle or war. He didn’t tell us exactly how to do it. But that was his commandment. Go with it.
My suggestion: love them by telling them the truth, that Warmer Is Better. List the many scientific reasons. Put a little warmth in your heart, too. You’ll feel better.
Lil’ Greta is not only a “climate activist” she is also a sodomy supporter.
Breathes there a man who thinks she is not just echoing the disordered political passions of her parents?
Pope Francis is interested in using her as a symbol for his progressive politics. It really is shameless for an adult man to try and manipulate the public by using a girl in this way. It really is a form of psychological child abuse.
Why would anyone do such a thing.
It works…
ABS used to live in the spiritually dead Diocese of Portland, Maine (It represents the entire State) and he remembers when the secular liberals and the Commie Bastids (but ABS grows repetitive) manipulated a different little girl, a child of progressives:
Back then, a powerful man. a Card Carrying Commie Bastid, Yuri Andropov, used an immature girl, Samatha Smith of Maine, as a symbol to try and manipulate international politics.
Poor Samantha, and her father died in a plane crash and her non-believing Mom had this to say in response to news of the deadly plane crash:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1985/08/27/samantha-smith-dies-in-plane-crash-at-13/1817724c-3812-4410-a74e-bbacaa43369d/
Again, we hear a powerful man, Pope Francis trying to make of an immature girl a powerful symbol of his progressive political prejudices just like when Yuri Andropov, along with political sympathisers in the press and Hollywood, manipulated and abused the girl, Samantha Smith.
Pope Francis calls the elected Italian PM Salvini, a Nazi, and so he must also consider those who voted for him, Nazis.
What is it about the mind of a progressive that makes him reflexively label as, Hitler and Nazis, those whose popular political policies he hates?
Why do progressives never label their opponents Commies, who killed far more people than the Nazis ever did?
Because the Commie Intern, Press and Politicians, would condemn them.
Because the way he is manipulating Lil’ Greta is so similar to the way Yuri Androv manipulated Samantha, ABS has legit grounds to call Pope Francis a Commie, right?
But, ABS won’t. He’ll just keep all of these events in mind and yet still call him Pope Francis.
REGRETa
hereby fixing a too short comment
Where are the parents or should I say who and how did this little brat even get into the spotlight. She sounds like any other bratty privileged kid with an issue she knows nothing about. I live in Canada one of if not the cleanest country on the planet we have trees everywhere not really worried about pollution how about instead of pushing countries like mine try knocking on Chinas door because it doesn’t matter what the countries that do have environmental programs when there are countries who don’t care. Through this environmental propaganda people like this little brat have allowed governments ways to bury money in invisible studies and programs as well as heightened industrial taxes that have done nothing but push companies to move to places where there are no taxes or care for the environment. Lets send Greta to China and the Middle east and see how well she does convincing them to be more environmentally conscious.
