I've never heard a conservative critique of Greta Thunberg that isnt some variation of "who put her up to this?", "Why should we listen to some kid?" or "what a stupid bitch/whore"

The same people that bitch about Greta and claim you shouldn't listen to children are the same ones that disregard and don't listen to actual climate scientists who have been saying the same thing she has for a good 20 years.

Almost as if it's not the messenger that they have an issue with but the message itself. Because they're just repeating the same talking points their corporate overlords have told them to say.

Anyone denying climate change and the serious issues regarding it anymore is openly ignorant to reality and rejecting science straight up.

No, people will not be fine. Anybody living through the process will be plagued by wars over vital resources, famine, lack of water, and die horrible, slow deaths as the planet that currently supports our species begins to lose the things that... you know... support our species.

We as a collective may bounce back... that doesn't mean we aren't royally fucked if the worst case scenarios start occurring...
Look, you can sit around being pessimistic if you want. Meanwhile I'm going to be over here in the optimists table.


And yet you shit your fucking pants every day over a potential nuclear strike hypothetical while this is something that is actually happening in real time

can it though? the reaction to him was from the presented narrative that he was involved in the bullying of an old, native american man

this is quite different from a young girl publicly voicing an opinion on a political issue that you disagree with

what's that got to do with this


It's not even a good "gotcha liberals!" because they presumably disagree with the criticism of Sandmann and the Covington kids, so that should mean that they agree with Grets about this.

It's all just so dumb

I mean, she comes from a family of drama/theater majors and just echos what shes been told to rehearse. That green boat display that they had to use a plane to retrieve anyway came across as very disingenuous. Then her how dare you speech was pure fodder for the opposition. Especially when compared to her live interviews where shes super awkward and quiet. It all smells fishy. Im glad climate change is getting more attention, but lol @ this messenger.

Considering actual climate scientists have been ignored or mocked for as long as they've sounded the alarms about it, I don't blame the messenger getting switched up to try and help the issue register.

I mean fuck it, if dumb people want to deny the science then try to appeal to their emotion

How was he bullying him? The native American was the bully, standing in his way and drumming in the kids face.
So the kid just stood there with a shit eating grin to show it didn't bother him.

I legit had this discussion and pointed that out to my Trump loving uncle and cousin over Thanksgiving, both of whom who grew up and still live in the rural country and spend a shit ton of times outdoors. Their response was basically "Who cares if we lose those annoying insects anyway? Fuck em"

Fair enough. Maybe if we show a Sarah McLachlan video of dogs drowning/dying of heat stroke the problem would be fixed sooner.

I spent a lot of time as a kid in the woods in my parents' backyard looking under rocks and logs for critters. Every one of them always had a ton of toads, crickets, grubs, bugs frogs, snakes, etc.

I went back and did that the last summer, there was nothing

Winters the first week of December in the middle of Sweden when I grew up:
Have had snow for months, at least 1.5m of snow, -20C was considered a warm day, only shoveling snow 3 times peer week was considered an easy week.

Winter the first week of December in the middle of Sweden today:
It first snowed one week ago, ~4cm of snow, +6C (-5C has been the normal temperature), only shoveled snow once.

If we look at the past 10 years, then I have been raking leaves the same week as Christmas at least 6 times.
One year it was colder in Midsummer than it was in midwinter.
This aint how winters in Sweden works!

re-read my post: I did not say he was bullying the native american.

although the idea that the native american elder who walked into the middle of an altercation between the students and the black nationalist group they were arguing with was the 'real bully' is a hilarious lie

that situation was not one with a bully, except perhaps the media execs who decided to make it a national story (about bullying)

Why do conservatives not understand because it gets cold in the winter that doesn't mean climate change is a hoax. These record breaking temps actually reinforce the idea but it never fails as soon as the first snow flake appears some goon says so much for global warm huh.

Remember the dipshit who brought a snowball into Congress and said that proved global warming was a myth?

Good times.

Even if she was 18, they still wouldn't take her seriously.

For all they say about bringing out actual scientists instead, that had been happening for years before, and they still didn't listen. So, why not have someone young enough to actually suffer from the screwed-up world in the future speak her piece?
