Anyone have any idea exactly how she became a “thing”? I mean, if a wealthy NRA spokesman sent their daughter on an Atlantic cruise, and they claimed it was for second amendment rights, there would be like an empty dock waiting for her when she arrived.
So who organized all of this and decided it was a “thing”?
That sort of shows in the thread to which this was attached.
You attack her speech to the UN, you are attacking a 16 year old girl with problems.
How mean.
I find it totally acceptable to question whether this is doing anything at all to help global warming or anything else. Actually, I would be more interested in what organizations and people made this into an iconic event anyway.
She didn’t do it herself. Just coming across the Atlantic didn’t demand this show.
We are not required to take her seriousness seriously.
She sailed across the ocean. That’s nice. We are not required to believe this has some deep meaning.
Perhaps you could remind us which side gave her a platform to speak truth to power and which side has savaged her as “mentally ill” and said some truly abominable things about her.
Leave the kids alone indeed. The lack of self awareness is astounding.
Her actor father and grandfather have a little more teaching to do. Her performance was nearly academy worthy. With a little tweaking she’ll get better.
