Re: A Stoic Response To The Climate Crisis

They say her body is stunted because she starved herself during puberty. At first glance one may think the starving would also stunt her brain and a case could be made that her antics support that diagnosis. But I don’t think so. The body is just a support vehicle for the brain so the brain gets first dibs on any nutrition, plus the body will consume itself just to feed the brain. Someone should ask her if she is a fan of the Frozen movies, I and II. These are all about young women with magical powers who can alter the phenomenal world with a wave of the hand and strong intent (appeals to granddaughters). This would explain Greta’s indignation over the weather, because the Frozen girls summon righteous wrath and kick ass.

Poor lil autistic harridan. She needed better parents.

Everyone concerned with climate change must where masks and air purifiers on the right end and tested by the government every month to prove their farts are within accepted government standards

Beans, beans, the musical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot
The more you toot, the better you feel
So eat your beans at every meal!

Her “I Dare You” has a breathless, cinematic quality, like she was raised on dramatic film noir, fantasy and dry popcorn without butter. The root of her popularity just might be as simple as a kindred spirit sort of dynamic going on.

And who are you, Walker, that you don't or cannot learn from a small young girl ?

How dare you!

:lol:

Au contraire. I have learned from the Greta phenomenon, and sometimes I even share.

All dares are in the past. I remember that long ago, possibly even afore Greta’s parents first breathed, my insatiable reading habits of the time dared me to read I Dare You!, by W. Clement Stone.

Your turn, same question.

Walker, I don't pretend to be an exemplar. I can endure but I am more a follower than a leader.

I have been thinking about why you and Henry and others make rude jokes about such as Greta Thunberg. She and others like her are making a stand against death and disorder. You and Henry and others of the same political persuasion take refuge in narrow tribalism. I don't know what can be done about this. I don't even know what has caused some people in this day and age to be tribal, apart from fascism which itself may be nothing but a rationalisation of fear and regress.
