    Why do we listen to her?
    She is, I think, about 20 years old and has never really accomplished anything of note, and yet people seem to look to her in making policy decisions. Why?

    Quote:

    Climate activist Greta Thunberg argued against taking Germany's remaining nuclear power plants offline, an apparent reversal on an energy source she has previously said she is against.
    "I personally think it's a very bad idea to focus on coal when [nuclear power] is already in place," Thunberg told German public television Tuesday, according to a Deutsche Welle report.
    The comments come as Germany and other European countries grapple with an energy crisis amid Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine, with most of the continent cut off from Russian natural gas they were previously dependent on for energy.

    Why ? Because not listening to her makes one an ableist . Her positions cannot be challenged because she is autistic .

    The loons are out in force. A couple of dweebs who have a bug up their arse about oil threw tomato soup all over Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers' at the London National Gallery . Then one of them that sounded like a Greta clone went into an incoherent rant

    Her rant was VERY coherent, very clearly stated. "There is some minor damage to the frame but the painting is unharmed,” police said.

    Please stop dissing autism. You have no idea what you're talking about.

    vanadalism against art is an attack on civilization Her rant was absurd ;a lame justification for the attempted destruction of art . I see her act as no different than the Taliban destruction of the Budda at Bamyan .

    The artwork was not harmed.

    Speaking of an attack on civilization, good thing no one has ever climbed the walls of the Capitol building, broken its windows, vandalized and even destroyed objects inside, plus pooped and peed on the floors and walls.

    or did 1-2 billion of $$ in damages in cities around the country ;vandalizing countless buildings torching buildings including an attempt at torching a Federal courthouse while blockading exits . The City of Portland was under siege for months by the Dem enabled Antifa .

    No, their intent was to get people's attention and then make a point.

    (They found out ahead of time that the artwork wouldn't be damaged.)

    So vandalism against major pieces of
    art is fine so long as the intent is noble?

    No one is making excuses for that. Everyone who broke the law should be prosecuted. Do you feel the same way about the painting vandals?? Please answer that question as opposed to dodging it.

    so let me get this straight . An act of attempted vandalisim is acceptable becuase their attempt was unsuccessful.

    while we are at it we still do not address the absurdity of their attempted vandalism as a message .

    Dozens of people have been charged from 1/6. Many are being held without bail. Where have you been?

    I knew you would not answer my question. Any question that seems threatening to your position causes you to run like a frightened child. I leave you with Tom and wish him good luck.
