Israelis are using photos of Greta Thunberg to shame each other over plastic utensils

Israelis who are concerned about a warming climate have a new tactic: using cut-out photos of the prominent teen climate activist Greta Thunberg to shame their colleagues for using plasticware.

In workplaces across Tel Aviv, people are placing pictures of Thunberg, 16, in their kitchen areas next to disposable forks, knives and plates, according to Haaretz reporter Allison Kaplan Sommer.

Global recognition of Thunberg grew in September when she addressed the United Nations Climate Action Summit and spoke of the dangers of the climate crisis. She sailed to the U.S. from her native Sweden instead of flying, to limit her carbon emissions.

One of the photos, showing a visibly angry Thunberg, reads “HOW DARE YOU” — a reference to her U.N. speech, which went viral.

Jews aren’t immune from inanity

indeed, some are quite accomplished at it

Something I would do as a joke at a party. Maybe the photos are of the same.

I would yank the picture of that demonic b*tch off the wall, rip it up, and take FIVE plastic utensils.

These idiot left-wing Jews in Israel ought to worry about muzzies who want to behead them instead of so-called, non-existent “climate change.” idiots.

I consider Haaretz equivalent to drunken scribblings on an outhouse wall.

That picture of that little demon would kill my appetite.

All you have to do is look India and the plastic pollution.

Not my fault.

[rlmorel]

Oddly, it it somehow looks completely natural on her.

[moovova]

I see several places a Sharpie world come in handy.

Geez, this tread went 30 posts without someone saying that she’s not responsible for her actions, her parents are.

Throughout human history, meddling busy-bodies have always thrived and found a way to impose on the freedom and comfort of others. The latest way is through environmentalism.

Greta is what an Adolph Hitler Great Granddaughter would be. The irony is unsettling.

I’d grab a handful put them in the microwave and set to 20 minutes on high.
The pics of the dumb kid too.

[albie]

Greta’s parents are to blame. This child has a multitude of problems such as being autistic and adhd. Along with being a paranoid schizophrenic.

Oh the same Israeli rag that thinks America needs open borders?

[EEGator]

They Live was an awesome movie.

[Tijeras_Slim]

I’d take the pictures to the range, pop a pill through the forehead of each and return them.

Anyone who has ever lived in Israel, as I have, knows the tongue-in-cheek humor that is behind these cut-outs. They are not "shaming" each other; at least partially, they are laughing at Greta and making fun of the situation.
