Thats a good pick
I feel embarrassed for you
What an idiotic take lol

It's hilarious how many hardened old school masculine men turn into crybaby snowflakes when a girl says some reasonable things about climate change. Whinging about how she doesn't deserve a platform when that fact they're grown ass men verbally attacking an autistic teen for saying things back by science which kinda suggests they're the ones exploiting platforms they don't deserve.
You could say why you felt the need to shake your head. But sure, 61 posts.
I think people also forget that Time's person of the year: "profiles a person, a group, an idea, or an object that "for better or for worse... has done the most to influence the events of the year"
it's (at least technically) not an endorsement. Trump and Putin have been on the cover as well.

Great pick. She inspires so many people around the world. Urgent change is needed.
Hey i missed Nephte's terrible shitposts.
Oh wait, i really didn't.

Oh man, I can already hear the salt some people I know will be spilling when they hear about this. I can't wait.
Wrong :
" Wow, this is unbelievable! I share this great honour with everyone in the #FridaysForFuture movement and climate activists everywhere. "
- Greta Thunberg
Classic diversion attempt failure.
Man its like this one person mobilizes millions potentially to be aware of the dangers of climate change at a govt and corporate scale, but people dismiss anything she says because she has AC . Its insane.
Dude you can live within a system, specially one forced upon the society you live in, and be critical of it, or want to dismantle it. ItS not that difficult to wrap our heads around that concept
Well now the people in the first few pages of this thread presuming to speak for her about what she "would want" look kinda silly.
Also jfc at the bots in the replies to both the Time tweet and Greta's tweet.
Yep. Not only that, they come from working forests that literally wouldn't exist without a market to support them.
(Obviously anyone is welcome to have a huge problem with that system, but that's the reality for this issue of Time.)
What are you even talking about?
I've never been anything but supportive of Greta Thunberg.
She's about the only climate activist that actually practices what she preaches. I wish more people who claim to care about the environment would follow her example instead of only giving lip service to caring about climate change. Go back to threads like where she was going to cross the ocean on a sailboat instead of a plane to go to the UN climate summit, I gave her major props.
Have you lived by a papermill?
I cannot honestly imagine Greta Thunberg sitting outside of a papermill as it spits out tons of emissions you can see and smell for an issue of Time Magazine and her thinking "this is okay".
Can you?

I'll take it just to make the average Fox News watcher mad but I would say no one has had a bigger impact this year than the Hong Kong protestors.
Horses name is Trigger (No its SIlver... hhmmm) He does have a gun though? Roy Rogers horse was named Trigger.
Chrono Trigger
Gun Trigger
That poster wasn't shaking their head. They mentioned some other person was.
Holy fuck @ the concern trolling over this. She even went on to use this to elevate another cause. Get over yourselves.
Even 16 year olds can't survive idiotic purity tests it seems.

Yeah, i read your comment as a criticism, so im glad I read that wrong.
and my point is, its ok for her, or anyone, to not live 100% what she preaches, because its next to impossible. to ask 7 billion people to be 100% energy conscientious is unrealistic, we can all do what we can to decrease our impact as much as we can, and its god she has the means to do more than others, and we can bring awareness of govts and companies that affect the climate at a massive scale. Thats where real, quick change lies, not by holding individuals to unrealistic standards, and shifting the blame. Thats what i like about her.
Me logging in to twitter: "Why is hitler trending"
Me looking at why: "Oh but of course".

People comparing Greta to Hitler due to her award
I guess. If that's it, the first picture completely threw me off. All i could think was Lone Ranger and Silver.
I suck at riddles.
It's not a matter of being "okay with it." It's basically this:
Getting the message out, whether it's paper or electronic devices, has pros and cons. I'm sure she's smart enough to understand the trade off.
I think that is the Lone Ranger but I'm guessing he meant Roy Rogers (whose horse was called Trigger)
Fuck knows why I know that.
For those who have concerns about trees and paper, isn't there an upswing of people reading magazines digitally?
With Apple News+, I get all of these Time magazines.

I've never heard of her, either.
But it looks like I would have if I'd hung out around climate-denying Boomers?
no you don't -I suck at paying attention to image search results. Fixed.
