Greta Thunberg apologized Saturday after saying that politicians should be put "against the wall” after some critics alleged that the teen climate activist was advocating for violence against officials.
“Yesterday I said we must hold our leaders accountable and unfortunately said “put them against the wall”. That’s Swenglish: “att ställa någon mot väggen” (to put someone against the wall) means to hold someone accountable,” Thunberg tweeted.
“That’s what happens when you improvise speeches in a second language. But of course I apologise if anyone misunderstood this. I can not enough express the fact that I - as well as the entire school strike movement- are against any possible form of violence. It goes without saying but I say it anyway,” she continued.
Thunberg joined thousands of students in the Italian city of Turin Friday for a protest to push the country’s government to take greater action to curb carbon emissions. She traveled to the city from Madrid after attending a United Nations climate summit in Spain.
Thunberg told the crowd in Turin that world leaders are running away from their responsibilities to address carbon emissions and fight climate change, the Associated Press reported.
“We have to make sure that they cannot do that," she said. "We will make sure they, that we put them against the wall, and that they will have to do their job and to protect our futures."
In Swedish, the phrase “putting someone against the wall” means someone is forced to address difficult questions of a difficult situation.”

This is weaponization of the mentally ill for political purposes, just like transgenders.
She has severe anxiety, OCD, and Aspbergers. She fixated on the environmental creed, and she admits she feels better telling others what to do in order to save the world. (It is common for the severely anxious to try to impose order on the world rather than treat their own anxiety.)
This makes her a passionate spokesperson for the movement. She BELIEVES in it. She has no life outside of it.
She’s also a great spokesperson/human shield. Looks 7, sounds 27. If someone criticizes her, they can be shamed for: attacking a child, attacking the mentally ill, being mean to a woman. She was picked up by liberals in power who saw her single minded dedication and passion. And they fueled her astroturf movement.
Swedish schoolgirl who refused to take part in one of campaigner Greta Thunberg’s ‘climate strikes’ is ‘bullied by her own teacher’ and labelled a ‘climate denier’

Her parents are involved. The girl has had eating disorders for years. She’s had selective mutism. She has refused to eat and speak until her parents quit their jobs that required traveling (theater and opera). Now they had no income. This made them perfect stage parents for a mentally ill child activists - they have no other support.
She’s not alone. This worldview is backed by systemic power. And they’re teaching all our kids this K-college.

When we were kids, they told us that a great Ice Age was imminent.
I don’t think it ever became the systematized ‘movement’ that we see now; but it seems that every generation is facing some kind of ‘apocalypse’.
She acts like someone who has been implanted using drugs and ECT. Like Ted Kaszinski. MKULTRA is still alive and being used to brainwash.
What kind of an apology is that? I apologize if any of *you* misunderstood.
Environmentalists have appropriated a lot of Christian dogma. That a world without people or without the unbelievers of Mother Earth will be a Garden of Eden. And a world that doesn’t repent and submit to the Mother Earth worshipers totalitarian system will suffer famine, plague, pestilence and death. Air turned to ash, the seas to acid and set boiling.
They’re the worst of the religious extremism while denying they’re a religion.

Agreed, and that’s just who she is too. Another disposable Leftist shill.
My FRiend I’m a veritable walking Wiki Pedia on The Holocaust. Even knew a man who survived Auschwitz. He survived only because he was 16 and strong. His father, mother, two sisters , aunts and uncles were all killed. He even showed me the numbers tattooed on his left fore arm.
LOL! You don’t need ‘MKULTRA’ to influence and use a child who suffers from a mental deficit.
tnws’s post 165 is interesting.
