If you've ever wondered if Greta Thunberg is an environmentalist or a Marxist, I think her most recent stunt will give you your answers.
The infamous climate warrior is in the news once again, but not for fighting fossil fuels this time.
Nope, this time she's protesting green energy, particularly against the use of wind turbines in Norway.
She and a group of 10 people were removed from government grounds in Oslo for protesting for the removal of a wind farm.
The wind turbines in question were built on the reindeer grazing lands of the Sámi people, the only indigenous group recognized by the European Union, and the wind turbines are bothering the herders (not so much the reindeer).
"Indigenous rights, human rights, must go hand-in-hand with climate protection and climate action. That can't happen at the expense of some people," Thunberg said.
One activist called the wind turbines an example of "green colonization."
I'm going to start using that one every time I see a wind farm.
Steve Trent, CEO and Founder of the Environmental Justice Foundation said,
"The Sámi did not cause the climate crisis, and their traditional ways of life - which they have practiced for millennia - should not be jeopardized by efforts to resolve it.
"Our efforts to roll back global heating must be equitable and fair," he added.
Confused yet?
The short answer is that none of the climate hysteria is about saving the planet at any cost.
If it were, we'd be building green energy wherever we could and going to war to end fossil fuel use.
The world is ending, people! We got to do what we got to do!
Clearly, the green movement is all about equalizing the world through the reduction of reliable energy in industrial nations. Everyone going backward together is progress for the commies.
If a person in rural Kyrgyzstan doesn't have heat in the winter, no one else in the world ought to either!
RE: Greta Thunberg is out protesting wind farms now. So much for saving the planet.
Did anybody ever ask her and her ilk exactly what kind of energy technology she/they will accept and why?
We learned this when we were children:
Give them an inch and they will take a mile.
How Dare You!!

Gretta’s motto
Whoever gives the moolahs
Gets the hula/hoola !!!
Is she protesting the wind farm or the removal of the wind farm. It sounds like the later.
Are there any wind farms anywhere near Martha’s Vineyard?
Not yet.
They tried back in the 80’s, but Ted Kennedy complained it would interfere with his yachting...............
Greta is the kinda girl would be most happy with a black boyfriend... Driving the jobless guy around here and there with his seat reclined back. Her parents made enough money off her so they can give her spending money for gas and food for them!
Greta is disappearing into obscurity.
Save the planet, save Teddy’s yachting? How could he drown his girlfriends with all those windmills in his way?
Scratch a greenie and you’ll find a commie fist, every time.
Goodness gracious me. Does anybody in their right mind honestly give two shites about what that inbred mongoloid says or does?
Thunberg needs to set an example and go totally natural. Live naked in the wild like she expects everyone else to.
She is making big bucks. I will give her one thing. She certainly knows how to scam for money. And it’s legal. Lol. I wish I thought of this at her age. Lol. She’s made over a million and has completed 9th grade. Meaning she only has a 9th grade education and she’s talking to world leaders constantly.
Greta is for sale to the highest bidder.
Her parents are worth 10 million. Greta over 1 million. Parents aren’t asking her for a loan.
Greta is whatever her puppetmasters want her to be.
If she gets sideways with the corporate greenies ($), she’ll be finished. She falls to understand that it’s not about the money, it’s about the money.
