Still not getting it. We could give a shit less what you think of her outside the fact you ARE BEING A DOUCHE.
The bigger picture is she is STILL correct in supporting the ADULT scientists which the ADULT DOUCHEBAGS are ignoring.
Everyone who rightfully accepts global warming, and agrees with the scientists need to be "shits" about it, because our species viability is at stake.
Instead of attacking her, stick up for her, and the scientists who the vast majority agree with her.
She is not our enemy, regardless of what you think of her personality.
Like I've said Brian, I can agree with every word she says and back every word she says. That doesn't mean I have to like her or agree with the way that she is going about it. It's quite simple.

Well, my opinion is that this isn't an excuse to attack a young girl with autism who's scared about her future and who feels justified in blaming the adults for jeopardizing that future. My opinion is that you're calling her a little shit because of some prejudice you hold against people like her.
And of course you are entitled to that opinion.

Pffffttt...
Don't care that she' s a she or autistic.
Shitheads are holding her up as an authority on global climate change.
She's not..
Piss on that.
I can teach a parrot ot say " global warming".
No one is holding her up as an authority. That's not the hubbub. It's that it took some measure of courage to stand up in front of people much more powerful than she, especially with OCD and autism, and give them the what for. I don't think a single person mistakes her as a climate scientist.

She' s a piss poor spokesperson ....
It's like having Charlie Sheen running a women' crisis center....
You are bad at analogies. You'll have to explain to me how having a child speak angrily about climate change at a climate change assembly compares to have a drug addict who abuses women work with at-risk women.
I know sometimes you're just yanking people's crank to see what pops up, so if you don't have an explanation, I understand.

How hard is THAT to figure out?

Yeah, I feel like the insinuation was that she's dangerously wrong and a hypocrite, because that would be true if Sheen ran a women's crisis center. If that wasn't your intention, great. If it was, what makes her dangerously wrong and a hypocrite.

I agree. I do not see how agreeing with facts that the scientists agree with is claiming she is a scientist. I don't have Autism and I am 53 and I accept what the scientists are saying. And she is a far braver person than I was at that age. To me, slamming her would be like the Church slamming a layperson for agreeing with Galileo at that time.
Facts are always worth defending.

Still a terrible analogy. She's just a kid talking about her opinion. Not a dumbass running a country. This is a totally different scale. She has no power or authority. She's just giving talks.

Now, all of that said, it's not even remotely surprising that men aren't listening to a young woman and are mocking her for her opinions. She could be as right as rain. She could be a climate scientist and men still would seek to discredit her, calling her mentally ill and whatever other garbage pundits are spewing about her. Whether anyone here admits or not, listening to a person with a vagina is not something rooms full of men often do.
