White European/American males have done more to damage the planet and have killed more folks through wars and colonization than any other group of people in the history of the planet. They won't acknowledge this fact, and see their power dwindling, as it should. She is a threat. She doesn't get rattled when they attack her, she just stays on message. We have more young women in the House than we have ever had, and they are very vocal. We have Warren slowly climbing up the polls and even leading Biden and Sanders in some states. They are afraid, and that is a good thing. All of you ladies please keep it up. IMO
Far to many men still want women in the second class position is society - Greta is in their face so intelligent and with a talent to inspire others. What a threat this is to these small men.
I agree!
Let's see...
She's only 16 and is smarter than they are, draws a much larger crowd, has way more influence, is receiving the utmost admiration and respect, is much more famous... and, unlike them, she's done something to inspire real change!
I say its JEALOUSY.
I almost jealous, as a boomers male with 15 years of struggling hard work as an environmentist. A teenage comes along, with one grand speech, shocking world leaders and getting phonies to hate her more than I will get in a lifetime.
Heavenly lottery.

Her youth is what works for her, because she can't take any responsibility for what's happened to this point, and is pleading for world leaders to finally take action, so she can have a future.
Best thing I can do is work strongly with the youth on physical environmental action's. The youth now have the greater momentum and energy for a survival vital change.
Its men like that who are the problem.
