Time magazine's Person of the Year is starting to sound a little bloodthirsty:
Greta Thunberg told cheering protesters today 'we will make sure we put world leaders against the wall' if they fail to take urgent action on climate change.Against the wall? It's kind of in line with Bernie Sanders's vow to put bankers in jail, except that it sounds more like something a totalitarian fanatic like Hitler or Lenin or Castro would say. Line 'em up and shoot 'em if they don't do what young Greta says? No disagreement, no civil discourse, no talking things out, no selling the idea? Just kill the dissenters, who, by the way, were democratically elected? Problem solved.*snip*

Totalitarians have always found the bloodthirstiness of youth a useful thing, whether it was Che Guevara's killing minions, FARC's targeting of children as the best child narco-terrorist soldiers, MS-13's recruitment of 14-year-olds as gang members, or the Hitler Youth. Kids make the best fanatics, the best killers, the best hysterics, and in Greta's case, the shadowy green lobby financing her has hit pay dirt. But now it looks as though they've unleashed a Frankenstein's monster who will stop at nothing until destruction is achieved. Everyone knows that youths are easily manipulated into Lord of the Flies behavior if sufficiently deracinated of any values.

And Greta got into the Arena, so all’s fair.
Wow
So true
I just read somewhere they she has announced that she is going to be taking a break from climate activism.
Some should tell this idiot what happened to Irma Grese
Who expected any different from a poster child of fetal alcohol syndrome?
Well, at least she hasn’t called for nuking the opposition like a certain Congressman...yet.
Apropos of nothing, I like how the spikes are still in place over the town gates in some of those scenic European villages.
