Farage vs Greta8 Nov 2021 09:08
Consider this. Take the words that Greta spouts, and re-imaging them being spoken by Farage.
I bet half the board would be celebrating his genius and waving having their Brexit tattoos updated with "blah blah blah" in close proximity.
I'm not a Greta fan, but take the message rather than the person. Take the message rather than the politic, and then listen to Sir David A speak at COP26. Strong messages, I set aside who gives the message. Last night was listening to a bit of Bowie and reimagined him speaking at COP26 and delivering those messages.
Just imagine if he were still here and was up on that stage throwing the "blah, blah, blah" message at the world leaders. Just how powerful that would be and how many older generation folks would take note. For me the whole Greta thing and dislike from the older generation is because they see her as a child, a puppet, naïve and a hypocrite. Think they need to lose the ageism issues and stop castigating her; yes she does have to travel, yes she is young, No I don't like here, but she does put across a very important message. So get over the sexist, ageism, ham-driven pro-Brexit (hate foreigners) mindsets, and listen to the damn message.
Disclaimer: I do not have any ties to XR, Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth or other, not a protestor. I'm just an ordinary Joe; but am open to the message despite being closed to the person.
