‘Greta Mania’ hits Glasgow as Swedish teen is mobbed upon arrival for COP26 summit (barf alert)
The Washington Post ^ | October 31, 2021 | Karla Adam

Greta Thunberg may not have been officially invited to the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, but on the first day of the conference, she was making her presence felt.

The Swedish teenager, who is something of a rock star for climate campaigners worldwide, is among thousands of activists descending on Glasgow for the 12-day U.N. Climate Change Conference of the Parties, known as COP26, which kicked off Sunday. They are calling on world leaders to take bold action to prevent global temperatures from rising by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels.

*** Thunberg arrived by train in Glasgow on Saturday night and was quickly surrounded by about 100 people at the station. Several police officers escorted her away.

*** In the BBC interview, Thunberg said that sometimes anger was the right response in the face of governmental inaction on climate. She was asked about the protest tactics of climate campaigners in Britain, who in recent weeks have been blocking roads.

“To make clear, as long as no one gets hurt . . . I think sometimes you need to anger some people,” she said. “Like, for instance, the school strike movement would never have become so big if there wasn’t friction.” Thunberg was referring to the youth climate protest movement called Fridays for Future that she founded in 2018.

So little time, so much fidiocy.

2.7 fahrenheit degrees since the preindustrial era? How would they find out what the temperature was before thermometers were invented?

I don’t think Greta has caught fire in this country, not as much as she and her handlers were probably hoping.
She’s too unappealing - all the time.

Most of that ‘Mob’ were probably photographers on assignment.

"She’s too unappealing - all the time."

I watched the video of her "how dare you" speech at the UN and I noticed that her face was twisted in pure hate. I hate to use the analogy but she truly reminded me of Hitler.

She's a singularly unappealing little monster.

Did she travel in her “carbon neutral” rowboat again?

She looks like a member of the Hitler Youth. The Wapo plays Der Sturmer for her.

What kind of a world do we have when a retarded little girl 18 years of age, but looks and acts like she is 12 is both a cultural icon and an international economic / industrial policy maker???

I mean, they stole an election for poopy pants Alzheimer’s Joe, fair and square. Who stole an election for Greta??? It’s not like she can sing and dance or has a giant Kardassian rear end or something to make her an ‘influencer’ either.

“I sense great vulnerability. A [woman]-child crying out for love. An innocent orphan in the post-modern world.”

“I see a parasite! A sexually depraved miscreant who is seeking only to gratify [her] basest and most immediate urges!”

“[Her] struggle is [woman's] struggle. [She] lifts my spirit.”

“[She] is a loathsome, offensive brute! Yet I can’t look away!”

“[She] transcends time and space.”

“[She] sickens me!”

“I love it.”

“Me too!”
