How insecure MUST YOU BE if this child is a threat.

    Clearly, this inspired young girl presents some kind of threat to petulant old white men who should have more important things to concern themselves with. How pathetic. 

    Just as clearly, the belittlement of her cause by these same alleged “leaders” has benefitted no one, brought about no solutions, and fails the future generations she represents.

    I thought WE had our hands full when we were growing up.  This is too much for ANY one child.  Look at the kids who were shot last year?  They were paid actors, remember?

    Said a sick mind about things they knew nothing about....

    It has to start somewhere. I cite Malala Yousafzai, the young girl who bravely stood against Muslim misogyny and won a Nobel Peace Prize. (Trump will never measure up)
    There may yet be hope.

    I think the youth of America are going to come out strong this election.  And I am also aware that there a many fledgling Nazis in the mix as well.  Thank you, Bible Belt.

    They don’t poll the youth, Sharonna. 

    No way to factor in what their politics are, if nobody is asking.. 
    So Greta spoke up.

    Well, we live in "interesting" times that is for sure.  If "interesting" means having the rug pulled out from under us at every turn.

    She was at a rally on the main land  across from me and I could feel the energy she was  generating here on the Rock (Vancouver Island). She is a dedicated gal that is opening a lot of eyes. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Why is it that those who are ready to listen are the only ones who are pro-Greta?

    The others?  Not one dent is she making.  OF COURSE.  Too bad we cannot divide the world into two sections.  The climate deniers and all their nonsense on one side with no animals and pollution and guns to kill each other. 

    The other side would be the Garden of Eden.  And we will be in heaven, filled with clean air and water and living food,  and they can eat junk food till they get cancer and die.

    But I laugh to myself at the men and the ladies that didn't conceive of that billion dollar baby. I feel a little ashamed when I compare the effort  I made  to save the World when I was a youth to the effort Greta makes. So today I am going to listen to Billion Dollar Baby's  by Alice Copper  but instead of thinking about Alice and my adventures well I was in the Kiss Army I'm going  to think about Greta and salute her. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Greta Thunberg is not the first young girl to be used for such a cause...



    Let us not forget, that there is a multi-million dollar industry in New Green Energy, and it's offshoots. So excuse me if I do not like it when these multi-million dollar making corporations, shareholders, and businesses, yet again place a young, innocent, scared child in the media to try to manipulate us.


    Fact is, I am under no illusion that if these rich big men really wanted to do something about climate change that didn't involve getting richer and controlling the masses, and was about saving their own skin, they would just create a virus, or cause a war, and kill a large amount of us cattle/cannon fodder/plebs to try to reverse the effects of climate change. Where we go wrong is thinking that these people really care about us when they are flying to these climate change meetings in private jets.


    Climate change isn't the only cause they've used young girls for..

    Wikipedia quote Nayirah testimony was a false testimony given before the Congressional Human Rights Caucus on October 10, 1990 by a 15-year-old girl who provided only her first name, Nayirah. The testimony was widely publicized, and was cited numerous times by United States senators and President George H. W. Bush in their rationale to back Kuwait in the Gulf War. In 1992, it was revealed that Nayirah's last name was al-Ṣabaḥ (Arabic: نيرة الصباح‎) and that she was the daughter of Saud Al-Sabah, the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States. Furthermore, it was revealed that her testimony was organized as part of the Citizens for a Free Kuwait  public relations campaign, which was run by the American public relations firm Hill & Knowlton for the Kuwaiti government. Following this, al-Sabah's testimony has come to be regarded as a classic example of modern atrocity propaganda.
