Greta Thunberg has nothing to say except what adults have taught her
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
The adults feed the kids a diet of apocalyptic warnings that children repeat back as if they are urgent insights.

Greta Thunberg needs to get a grip.

The celebrity teen climate activist addressed the UN and accused the assembled worthies of coming “to us young people for hope. How dare you! You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.”

Someone may have stolen her childhood, but the guilty parties can’t be found at Turtle Bay. A 16-year-old from Sweden, Thunberg thundered, “I should be back at school on the other side of the ocean,” which would have been easy enough to achieve, beginning with not taking two weeks to sail across the Atlantic last month in a jet travel-eschewing publicity stunt.

Thunberg is the leading edge of a youth movement against climate change — including a global climate strike last week — that is being promoted and celebrated by adults who find it useful for their own purposes.

Kids are powerful pawns. The catchphrase “for the children” has a seductive political appeal, while kids offer their adult supporters a handy two-step. The same people who say, “The world must heed this 16-year-old girl” will turn around and say to anyone who pushes back, “How dare you criticize a 16-year-old girl?” (I can feel the tweets filling up my mentions right now).

This poor abused child’s speech to the UN will be played over and over in classrooms in every western country for decades. It will be used to indoctrinate the youth. To terrify them. To *uck them up mentally. To deny them their youth. To ruin their health. To deny them a plain old traditional education that will see them throughout their lives.. Question. Do parents sit down at the dinner table with their children anymore and ask “well, what did you learn in school today”? I say most parents would be shocked, no furious to find out the crap their children are being force fed in the classroom. Do parents even sit down to a what used to be traditional family dinner anymore? If they do instead of interacting with each other does the entre family sit around staring at their stupid iPhones or playing games instead of talking? Just like they so often can be observed doing in restaurants. Or almost any other family outings. Our education system has been hijacked by the progressive left from elementary school to university. The children cannot fight this scourge but truly ‘woke’ enlightened parents can and must on their behalf. Fight for them damn it. Fight!

They will not stop until the entire western world becomes what Venezuela has become. We are all gonna die unless we give them all of the power is their battle cry. IMO there is only one road block of significance impeding them from achieving their goal. POTUS Donald Trump. The globalist progressive left truly are insane. How do we know? Because they are telling us!

This poor child is being prostituted. There is no more accurate word to describe this situation.

Those who are befuddled and beleaguered by climate nonsense look to Greta Thunberg as if she were another Joan of Arc. Those of us who live in reality see her as being hopelessly mired in the arrogance of untruth. Yes, Greta’s childhood has been stolen from her, but it isn’t America that’s done that – it’s her parents who have allowed her to be prostituted in this manner. It is the leftist politicians and their ilk who are milking her youth and gullibility and her hunger for acceptance who have stuck her up on a tilting pedestal. I’m as uncomfortable watching her as I am seeing a parent mistreat a child in public. Humiliation is coming at her like a locomotive and no one is yanking her off the tracks.
