Easy to search "Sasha" or "Malia" on the board. Let me know if you find anything.

A quick search for Sandmann reveals some posters here...

The kids' reaction is completely racist.

There's no defense for these asshats; you can only hope they've learned a lesson.

I don't have a problem with her being criticized, when you step on to the stage you're opening yourself up to criticism. But Trump criticizing her and then whining about Barron is hypocritical. Like it or not, Trump put Barron on the stage when he ran for President. Sasha and Malia got shit, Jenna and Barbara got shit. If you don't want your family getting shit then you shouldn't run for President.
I don't care about Trump or his snotty nosed kid. I'm talking about all the well deserved flak Greta is getting in general. People like Geoffrey were bitching about this long before Trump opened his fat ass mouth.

You don't have to like her but I don't think you can argue that she hasn't had an impact and influenced the discussion.
I would argue that the only thing she has brought to the discussion is more emotions and table thumping in a topic/theater that is already overfull with emotion and table thumping. She will disappear just as quickly as she came on the scene, as she is nothing more than a pawn in this game; designed to elicit a certain emotional response.

She has brought no facts, no ideas, nor contributed to a meaningful discussion other than the fact that we are "stealing/stole her future". That type of "impact" is useful in only generating news and clicks and the "influence" will only be around as long as she fills the role she is being "paid" to play. Or do people think she (or her parents) lined up all the speaking time slots or the yachting across the oceans on their own? And that the people helping her are doing it out of the goodness of their heart? :coffee:

There is always an agenda and one only has to follow the money to see it.

I should of prefaced the post saying that I am a full blooded cynic when it comes to these things and whenever I see a person just "appear" on the world stage with great fan fare and am told that I should listen to their message as gospel, I tend to be more than a bit septic on what they bring to the table. :twocents:

Or maybe I just really don't like being preached at. :D

Like I said - she’s a human shield for leftist totalitarian adults. Period. Some here on this very forum are hiding behind her ... pretty much proves my point

Spare me the “attacking a kid” bullsh1t. If anybody here has read or listened to actual things she has said you might not be so quick to defend her

She a totalitarian little sh1t and given the right set of circumstances she’d be sitting on a tribunal somewhere sending all of you off to reeducation or worse - you can bank on that. She’s a little Swedish Che Guevara and criticisms of her are more than warranted - if for no other reason than to bring her handlers out of the closet to defend some of the “solutions” she proposes.

So spare me the hand wringing butt plug in the ass beta make bullsh1t over people being mean to the poor little sh1t. Stop being pussies and come out and defend the bile that comes out of her little face sewer

I’ll start: Go to the Climate Strike website and look at the list of demands. Defend them. Stop hiding behind the little sh1t and actually defend what she’s espousing. Because defending her from the big bad bullies is hiding behind her.

I take that a lot of this is directed me. Ok - I don’t give a rats ass about her or her message. Honestly - I’ve never heard her speak. I only know about her through the news and memes. I’m speaking from the perspective that instead of calling the kid some nasty, be an adult and attack the policies. Not the kid.


I bet if one of your daughters were in public like this, you’d want the message to be debated and her appearance or apparent defects ignored.

But we dont live in that world.

Greta is neuro-atypical. She's going to be precocious in some waysand in other ways is going to be more child-like. Otherwise CID is right on. When you use kids to throw grenades and they get shot at it's the fault of the people that gave the kid the grenades.

My yet to be emancipated daughter would not be the puppet of a neo Maoist global temper tantrum movement - at least not without a little bloodshed on whatever adult was stupid enough to try to co-opt her

I have plenty of sympathy for the little sh1t. In fact her disabilities are being exploited by her handlers -

But 90% of the “attacks” on her aren’t attacks at all - it is dissent against what she is espousing being characterized as attacks. THAT is her utility to these groups- that’s why she is the face of this movement and not some Norwegian college student soyboy.

So although she is being victimized by both her handlers as well as her opponents, I completely reject any attempts to shift the argument away by making her the focus- the Climate Strike manifesto demands need to be front and center, in full daylight

Therefore my response to anybody clutching their pearls over bad things being said about Thunberg is to dismiss them with prejudice. I’m not rewarding deflection by people whose intent is to stifle dissent by using disabled teenagers.

I am willing to listen but would you mind providing some of the actual things she's said that make you think she's a totalitarian?

It' can't be stuff about she wants action to reduce carbon emissions. There is always a tension between government and liberty with that sort of thing. Like having a law saying you can't burn a bunch of trash and have your neighbor choking on the smoke.

One can debate what is and what is not pollution. But wanting to regulate pollution is not totalitarianism.

Judas Priest you are myopic

Go look up the Climate Strike list of demands, JSO. I'm not going to do it for you.

She is their spokesperson. We can only assume that she at least tentatively espouses their manifesto.

Then, defend it.

I don't think that President Trump should be attacking others children.
Maybe you should stop hiding behind her, then.

She made her own choice to be front and center calling for full on global upheaval.

It's not different. The President of the United States defended the MAGA teen, sung his praises and invited him to the White House. What he tweeted about Greta.....a 16 year old girl that got an honor that TRUMP HIM SELF RECEIVED IN 2016......was just plain wrong. Adults should not harass minors.....period. I thought that you MAGA nuts agreed with that......I guess not when Donald J. Trump is doing the harassing. Does Donald's cock taste good to you, Balldud?
Jeff is making such a big deal over this and I haven't seen the tweet, so I just looked it up.
Was it the "anger management" comment? Is that what set you off?

OK, I'll agree that the POTUS should not have said that. But I thought it would be much worse than that based on your continuous tantrum over it. If it was me and wanted to comment on anything she does or says, I would have gone over her head and "attacked" the root of her activism. At 16, we all know she can't possibly understand all the connected issues related to her demands. Besides, going over her head would be much more demeaning. :mrgreen:
