Why is everyone in the world suddenly talking about this random girl who gave a climate change speech at the UN? The media went from zero to obsessed overnight. I've heard some theories it's to distract from what Trump said at the UN, because he challenged a lot of narratives apparently, although I haven't seen the speech myself.

She's got an ImdB page for being a child actress; I guess both of her parents are in theatre. She needs to work on her acting skills though, she just creeps me out. I think she, and David Hogg look like to insane peas from the same pod, lol.

Maybe that's because she's on the autistic spectrum; I hear that some people can get an uncanny valley effect from autistic people.

I'm fairly sure after watching the video linked below, the girl is nothing but a stage puppet; probably being traded in white slavery amongst billionaires. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bwLt_5t73g

In that clip, she's asked a questions, but apparently no flashy cue card answers; so she defers to answer to others.

I haven't really paid much attention to her until I watched her "speech". I'm no expert, but something seems...not right. Not sure if that is with her, or the situation, or...dunno. Something felt weird

Climate Swindle Nonsense—Don't listen to little children; listen to scientists who have not been paid off. It is total bullshit. You don't have to go to school on Friday since all they teach you is: conform, swallow the blue pill, protest against all the wrong stuff. Yes, we are facing a crisis Greta but the crisis is not global warming—it is the bullshit the owned media is sticking down our throats. A 16-year-old girl is getting this coverage but her science is all wrong. See links above for a some science.

“I just worry about the fact we use a kid like this, who arguably should be getting treatment because she’s said she’s had anorexia, said she’s had Asperger’s and said she’s battled depression.”

She claims to have had Asperger's?

Did fighting global warming cure her autism?
