First, credit to Jim Treacher at PJMedia for being the first source I can find to point this out. The difference between being a teenager to be worshipped by the media and one to be destroyed might depend on a hat.
Narrative helps too.
Teenage Weather Apocalypse prophetess Greta Thunberg is probably a fine girl making the best of her situation, but she is also being used as a tool by the left. Just in time for Climate Strike. And what a great time to be her. She scolds adults and gets away with it. At the UN no less.
Where they need a good bit of scolding, but Greta is singing to the choir. She’s encouraging their global socialism, so they love her. And Use her.
I wonder if Nick Sandmann would have the same success over say, the Right to Life? Well, we know the answer.
While Greta is ranting and off-limits, Nick was savaged for saying nothing. By the media, politicians, and celebrities. A teenager a bit older than dear Greta.
Her words must be believed and embraced because they happen to promote the socialist economic program.
The Covington kid was a smirking white MAGA hat-wearing racist. The media raped his soul for weeks for doing (literally) nothing but tolerating a professional left-wing assh**le who lies for attention.
Same Song Different Lead
Thunberg is yelling at people about the end of the world. The same end that has been predicted by the same sorts of socialists with the same motivations for decades. And poor Greta may not know it, but she is a victim of Climate Munchausen by proxy, spun up and set loose on the world.
the daughter (and granddaughter) of famous actors and opera singers suffers from Asperger’s syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and selective mutism. I’m no medical professional, but these things might have been brought on when (according to public sources), starting at the age of eight, Thunberg was subjected to such a barrage of climate panic that she eventually became depressed and lethargic, and also developed an eating disorder.
If you were wondering pandering to gender dysphoria is not the cultural Marxist’s only form of child abuse.
And unlike the left’s treatment of Thunberg, nobody on the right was pushing Sandmann as a representative of their cause. The left sought him out. The left wanted to destroy him just for wearing the wrong hat.
Trump did tweet about her. He said, “She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!” The left lost what passes for their minds. Because were they in his position they’d be savaging the object of political opposition. So, he must be as well. And maybe he is trolling them or her. But to the left, age, sex, race, gender, none of it matters. Ideology is the only factor defining acceptance.
Greta is saying the words they want to hear, so they are happy to use her to their ends. Anyone who dares question those ends will be accused of bashing children.
Tell that to Nick Sandmann.
