It is just like the media fawning over a 14 year old child out of, where, Denmark, about climate change. Taking lessons from children is such a trope of the stupid. You hear it all the time, "listen to the children". Children are,…
Subhead is great: "While we banned plastic straws, Russia drilled and doubled nuclear energy production."
It is just like the media fawning over a 14 year old child out of, where, Denmark, about climate change. Taking lessons from children is such a trope of the stupid. You hear it all the time, "listen to the children". Children are, generally, idiots about matters of substance. This is true whether the child is ordinary or on the spectrum. Thunberg became insulated to criticism because she was identified as being on the autism spectrum. Then she shouted at adults, castigated them, screamed, and the MSM lapped it up and anyone who criticized was ostracized. They are great when it comes to unwavering love - given and sought. But they know no science, no policy, nothing about human existence on a global scale. Shame on anyone who fell for this.
The drinking straw thing is another example of this stupidity. A child in California (of course) made some calculations about how many straws are produced and then extrapolated to how many end up in the nostrils of sea turtles. And the Media and the Green Religionists went wild for him. Starbuck changed their business for it.
Yes, that seems to be you. As to the rest of us, who is "attacking" a "young girl"? You did not read, or did not understand my comment. Just so you might figure it out, we were put in a position where we could not oppose what that teenager asserted. Get it yet?
I asked myself whether it was necessary to mention a nine-year-old and a teenage girl to get his point across; in my estimation, it was not; it was a gratuitous act. Then you decided to double down; To what end?
Just catching up here. My point was not about Thunberg. It was about the elites. If you thought it was about her, you might be comfortable among .... the elites.
Agreed. But the navel gazing of our elites goes far beyond plastic straws and solar panels. Ruling classes are always somewhat disconnected, but ours has reached a shocking level of insularity for a supposedly liberal democracy.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
You; “This is true whether the child is ordinary or on the spectrum.”
Me; I can’t help but wonder where someone is on the spectrum of humanity, who attacks a young girl?

In some places, they banned plastic straws wrapped in paper and made far inferior paper straws...wrapped in plastic. 😄 You can't make this shit up.
