Sweden charges Greta Thunberg for blockading oil port
Sweden charges Greta Thunberg for blockading oil port
The climate activist blocked a port handling fossil fuels with a group of young activists in June.
You're viewing a single thread.
Based Greta, the one actual girlboss.
The only thing better than Greta's commitment to fighting against climate change, is seeing how much she pisses off old rich men. One day I'm going to make a shirt that says "Your girlfriend would rather fuck Greta" just to watch them seethe even harder.
As a relatively young, broke man, she also pisses me off very much.
You agree with everything people who actively make your life harder tell you to think?
The hell? What kind of fucked up world view does one need to have, to jump to that conclusion, just because I don't agree with the methods Great and her cult use? That's on the same level of stupid as telling Ukraine they have to negotiate with Russia at all costs.
her cult
Claiming that believing climate change is real and fighting for a cleaner future is a cult is the real fucked up world view.
You realize science is a real thing, right?
You apparently don't, because there are countless scientists who deliver alternatives, so we don't have to strip ourself from enjoying life in every possible way.
Now tell me what exactly is so noble and great in ignoring different sides of science and just telling people (basically) "repent!"?
scientists who deliver alternatives
Like what?
<crickets>
Though if I had to guess, it's going to be stuff like "build a shit ton of nuclear power plants, use e fuels for cars, use green hydrogen, develop fusion power, and generally do all the things that allow us to believe that we have to change absolutely nothing in our lives."
Have you ever heard of Dr Jack Kevorkian
Fucking lol
If you read into his other posts he is saying her approach of blocking people from living their lives is ineffective. It is like protesting something by blocking off a highway people need to use to make a living.
So people should protest somewhere where nobody notices? Preferably quietly?
That's not how protests work.
At this point who notices protests? They are so commonplace unless tens of thousands of people are involved. I agree that this will catch the public eye and may motivate people to side with her, but it could have the opposite effect as well. People rely on fossil fuels to get through their day (e.g. commuting, heating their homes, electric generation even). Making it more expensive may frustrate people who are more concerned about making ends meet than the climate.
It sucks, but there are limits to how practical it is to disrupt a crucial resource.
these countless scientists (accounting for less than 2% of the scientific community), are they in the room with us right now?
Also Greta doesn't control literally anyone, doesn't require unwavering devotion and most importantly it is not a spiritual belief that human-made climate change is a thing. In fact it's a well established fact by now.
Because 1 moron screaming that the sky is green does not make the sky green just because he's "providing an alternative" to what the other 99 people are saying after looking up at the sky and seeing it is blue. Scientists are also not telling people to repent, they're telling people there needs to be a system change and they're also telling politicians that they need to enact policies to contrast climate change, and the same is what activists ask for. You'd know if you spent some time looking at what they say rather than what the media says about them.
You know who actually is both telling people to repent for their own emissions and also spreading misinformation about climate change and financing those "alternative science"? Oil companies. I wonder why.
Ok thanks for sharing I guess? The shirt will apply to you as well.
Right, because i dont have the same views about what to do, I'm in the same boat as the fucking oil mafia? And you people wonder why republicans and right wing views get so much approval and the left doesn't get shit done? God, this world is really beyond fucked.
You're the one siding with them, nobody told you to hate climate activist but them.
How dense do you have to be to come to such a conclusion from "I don't like how you fight for our common goal"?
That isn't what you said though, is it?
Okay, so what is "I don't have the same views about what to do" then? I want to bathe in oil and want the world to burn?
Way easier to hate on a little girl than your oppressor. I get it, but it makes you seem weak.
Maybe direct that anger at people who deserve it
