ROME–When Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg was 11 years old, her body had started to shut down due to severe self-starvation tied to debilitating depression. She spoke to almost no one but her immediate family. She was afraid of crowds. She was lost in her own world, and the world very nearly lost her.
But thanks to the formal diagnosis of Asperger’s syndrome coupled with high-functioning autism and obsessive compulsive disorder, the now-16-year-old Swede has become quite literally the poster child for the generation that will have to deal with the destruction of our planet. Once she started receiving multifaceted treatment, Thunberg was able to channel her anxiety into something we should all be concerned about: the health of the planet and the science behind apocalyptic warnings of its demise.

You have a nice day.
This scene from The Dead Zone is a classic.
A kooky politician uses a baby to shield himself from an assassin.
Greta is no different.
“You lack logic. It isn’t in their best interests to admit her mental instability.”
Lol, well I can see that you have no small expertise in that whole lacking logic department.
You’re buying the sympathy-engendering story that Team Greta is cranking out about her and then rationalizing your gullibility by pretending that the story is not in their interest.
The Crazies will pick the best Crazy to lead them
Kids like Greta have all the answers. Trouble is, they’re not mature enough to understand the questions. Just like me when I was that age.
Mental illness has become a virtue.
Her parents feel that the girls’ problems are “inextricable from the climate crisis, and that the cure is to “change the system.”
So to them, Greta’s and her sister’s Asberger’s, OCD and autism are caused by ‘the climate crisis’. I see. Two kids in one family’s got nothing to do with mama’s and papa’s genes?
Talk about parents deflecting their guilt over their children’s conditions, by using their child in this way.
How utterly despicable!
I need a colonoscopy exam. Is Greta the one I need?
More like Grumpy Cat personified
No, we rarely get what we need...she is what we deserve.
We used to have political giants in this country. Now we have children.
Hypocrite, thy names are progressive, leftist, Democrat...
The Left and its child abuse. It is so sickening to take this mentally disturbed girl and push her out as a spokesman for a scientific topic or a topic that calls for science — not histrionics!
I know that story. Turned in his father to the NKVD so he could get killed. His enraged uncle killed Pavlik and Morozov became a hero of the Soviet Union.
No doubt she has been completely programmed. An automation. More or less.
We need more CO2 in the atmosphere Greta. Just ask the Farmers over in Amsterdam.
