Thread: That bonkers Scandinavian child GT

  1. #76

    Re: That bonkers Scandinavian child GT

    Still don't get why this sixteen year old girl appears to be so hated? I read charges of hypocrisy against her, but is that enough to explain her vilification by some?

    Look at the “famous” people who’re attacking here, Aaron Banks, JHB, Piers Morgan. If that’s the company people want to keep fair enough.

    Even if someone disagrees with her (why?) I don’t get why they have to spew abuse.

    I certainly don't hate her. I've never met her.
    Some people can see that a child is being exploited in this campaign. I'm not sure it's a good idea putting a young girl through this crossing.

    It has become a media circus now.
    I will certainly admit one thing... She is a very clever and beautifully spoken young girl and I imagine she will have a lifetime career in politics. Her command of English leaves many British children of her age adrift.

    She's become (partly by being in the right place at the right time as another poster said ) the face of a movement of growing awareness and urgency, and has taken to that role impressively and eloquently.

    She's not rude, arrogant or insulting in any way. Her crimes apparently are being young, autistic and a girl. Why those are considered negatives says a lot about the people attacking her and nothing about her. It's as simple as that really.

    Can’t we do both?

    Do we have to be negative towards one because we live closer to the other?

    How do you know she’s being exploited?

    Some think it's a child being exploited.

    But others would just call her bonkers. Am i right, alwaysaway2?

    Why does that matter? Surely if she’s given someone a kick up the arse that’s a good thing.

    Also her point isn’t just focussed on individuals doing their bit is it? It’s on governments making changes so the huge companies who are causing the majority of climate change are limited in what they can do.

    A young confident woman who has a message that continues to be proved right.
    They are absolutely pants-wetting terrified of the generation she represents and it's hilarious to see the procession of old white men falling over themselves to show it on an almost weekly basis.

    She's bonkers.

    Bonkers means many things and enthusiastic about her cause... she is.

    City fans go bonkers when City score. Last Saturday 96th minute.

    Basically alwaysaway flies to every cardiff game and feels like it’s a direct go at him. When it isn’t at all but he reacts angrily about it because of perceived guilt.

    That's a pretty good reply.

    I mean it's total bollocks and no one would believe it for a second, but under the circumstances quite good.

    Intelligent folk don't need the lecture and let's be fair they are more likely be the ones to recycle.
    It's the stupid cockwombles who won't listen to reason that need the lecturing, but are too far up their own arses and incapable of education to realise this.

    Thanks.
    She's bonkers.
    Her campaign modus operandi is bollocks.

    Just my opinion. I am an old white person with the wrong views for the rebellion supporting social media mob and the earth socialists.

    That should provoke you further. 🤣

    Timmy Mallett was enthusiastic in a bonkers way. She's not.

    Nah, I'm not provoked. But it looks like the OP in this thread was

    Being right does make you correct, you are right.

    One other thing to consider is that it looks increasingly likely that we are close to the end of the climate change denial game. Just like with big tobacco there is a limited period where the 'evidence is inconclusive, it's a myth, our own studies show etc.' excuses work. With tobacco it was when people saw their own families dying of cancer that they abandoned that line . With climate we are actually seeing the changes now (Australia in permanent drought, artic melting, weird summers etc) and public tolerance of denial seems to be shifting with things like Extinction Rebellion and this topic.

    To borrow a phrase that Warnock could have written himself: what do you do when you aren't good enough to play the ball? You try to play the player instead.

    You are completely missing the point of it, it isn't about individuals recycling and planting flowers. It's about raising awareness on a global scale so people put pressure on governements to make changes to stop the biggest poluters poluting.
