Greta Thunberg curses now.
She got global coverage from the UN climate summit for going on a profanity-laced tirade outside of the convention center.
All I can say to Greta is:
(play the shame on you cut)
But Greta is seventeen or eighteen now and is still insisting that world leaders aren’t doing enough. Her shtick is getting old, and so, maybe the curse words freshen it up.
Her fellow activists seemed to like it:
And yes- ‘no more blah blah blah’ is already a theme, and a t-shirt.
She first used it on Boris Johnson- Britain’s prime minister-and it caught on. So, expect to hear, ‘no more blah blah blah’ a lot from the eco-zealots now. It’s the latest thing that they think is cute.
I just find Greta funny.
She’s a cute little girl with a constant angry face. She’s always spitting venom and vinegar, and frankly, it’s funny, because she’s way too young to be this cynical and bitter.
But-it was taught to her. And for that reason, I feel bad for her. I pity Greta, who is a little girl on the spectrum whose leftist parents never let her grow up. Instead, they decided to use her and her condition to ‘program her’ to be the ultimate climate activist: a girl who is smart beyond her years. Can express herself as well, or better, than most adults-
And that’s due to the autism, too. It allows some children amazing minds- like Elon Musk-
And so, Greta, as a teenager, sounded and expressed herself like an adult-and also-
Due to the autism- thinks in very concrete terms. You can input ‘facts’ into a young Greta- whether they are true or not-and she’ll absorb them in a very concrete way and believe them without question.
Her parents clearly discovered this at a very early age and have been using it-and her-ever since.
So, I feel bad for Greta.
