This is the reality behind the pig-tailed little girl being feted as the saviour of the world. It is just tragic. You really do need to read this.

Why do you think she's being exploited? Where's the evidence for this?
-
FFS, read the article at the start of this thread.
-
Yeah, I did that. Can't see any evidence of actual exploitation though - plenty of implied fault on the part of the writer, but nothing beyond insinuation.

Her choosing to campaign for a cause she believes in is “exploiting”. How, and for what purpose? What a load of BS. Stop pretending you’re concerned and admit that you’re just bitter that she’s accomplished more than you ever will.

Read the article

Oh I read it. I wish I hadn’t but I did

I agree JHB is a truly despicable person. I've always disliked her but this is a new low even for her. No care at all for Greta Thunberg just cares about her vile right wing climate change denying agenda. She's happy to denigrate a wonderful 16 year old girl - disgusting

Worried about a child being exploited, yet you are happy to share an article that completely trashes the child you are supposedly concerned about. Liar.

The article does not support your theory even if it's published by an alt light out fit posing as something else. You're exploiting her for publicity, it's glaringly obvious. And quite amusing.

Thank you Julie. I wrote the same thing a while back. Greta & her father talked about her obsession, Aspergers, mutism & other issues in an interview in Poland.https://theresurgent.com/2019/02/22/2-who-is-greta-thunberg-and-why-you-and-diane-feinstein-should-care/ …

JHB likes to bully disabled children, I'd like to think it's a new low, but it's not.
-
Oh....I'm pretty sure she can go lower than that.

I read it, I don’t believe for one minute that you are “worried” about her, your choice of language suggests otherwise. Let’s not forget that her content is based on scientific research, you want us to brush this aside because she is 16, has pigtails and additional needs...pic.twitter.com/eSNFrZwRNJ

No Julia, you’re exploiting it for your own ends. Still keeping her in the spotlight can’t be all bad.

Yeah, you’re totally worried. And patronising. She’s not a little child. She’s a strong, brave 16 year old with valid opinions. As the mother of 4, they’d have hysterics if I told them, at 16 that their opinions didn’t matter.

The serious problem is that in taking your usual Katie Hopkins-esque stance on Greta Thunberg you are promoting and encouraging backward views that discriminate against and demean disabled people. That’s so low, so LOW.
