‘Climate’ Activist Greta Thunberg Throws Her Support Behind Joe Biden
“I never engage in party politics. But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that”
Swedish ‘climate activist’ Greta Thunberg on Saturday threw her support behind Democratic candidate Joe Biden as the presidential election enters its final leg. “Just get organized and get everyone to vote Biden,” the 17-year-old activist told her four million followers on Twitter.
Thunberg, who’s ‘Fridays for Future’ protest movement rejects capitalism and calls for an end to the fossil fuel ‘madness,’ called on her supports to get behind the 77-year-old democratic candidate. “I never engage in party politics. But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that,” she tweeted.
The endorsement by the high-profile ‘climate change’ activist is the last thing Biden needs as he desperately tries to distance himself from the radical green agenda he has been campaigning on until recently. The Democratic candidate denied supporting the Green New Deal during the presidential debate. His campaign website tells a different story. “Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face,” the official Joe Biden website says.
The Green New Deal, initially co-sponsored by Biden’s running mate Kamala Harris in the Senate, calls for ending the fossil fuels and banning fracking. Harris makes no secret of her admiration for the Swedish activist. “I’m so inspired by your courage and your voice,” she said last December speaking of Thunberg.
The Reuters news agency reported Thunberg’s endorsement of Biden:
Teen climate-change fighter Greta Thunberg on Saturday showed support for Democrat Joe Biden, urging voters concerned about the environment to make their voices heard in the U.S. presidential election.
The Swedish 17-year-old said in a tweet that she never engages in party politics, but that “the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that”.
“From a climate perspective it’s very far from enough and many of you of course supported other candidates. But, I mean…you know…damn! Just get organized and get everyone to vote #Biden,” she wrote.
Thunberg, who sparked a global climate protest movement after striking outside the Swedish parliament in 2018, could encourage participation among younger voters who are typically less likely to vote than older Americans.
In little more than two years Thunberg has managed to create a large activist army, especially in Europe. Given her ability to mobilize tens of thousands of school-going kids in major Western cities, many politicians are literally scared of displeasing her. In March, the European Union proposed a sweeping ‘climate change’ plan to appease her demands. The teenage activists slammed it for not going far enough.
“It’s been fascinating to watch how scared a lot of grown up male leaders are of this young 16-year-old girl who speaks up about the threat of climate change,” Hillary Clinton admitted last year.
I never engage in party politics. But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that.
From a climate perspective it’s very far from enough and many of you of course supported other candidates. But, I mean…you know…damn!
Just get organized and get everyone to vote #Biden https://t.co/gFttFBZK5O— Greta Thunberg (@GretaThunberg) October 10, 2020
Thunberg, who comes from a long line actors (both her father and grandfather are accomplished performance artists), has made a name for herself by giving rant-filled speeches at global conferences. She has been particularly angry at President Trump for his rejection of ‘climate change’ dogma. The U.S. president withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement in 2017, freeing the U.S. industry from globalist diktats. He has also unabashedly championed capitalism, boosting manufacturing jobs at home and promoting oil and gas drilling.
Thunberg described a possible meeting with President Trump as a ‘waste of her time’ during her high-profile visit to New York last September. Trump, not known for holding his punches, called her “a teenager working on her anger management problem” after her famous “How Dare You” speech.
Thunberg’s endorsement underlines the fear of another four years of Trump presidency. The U.S. president has not only pushed back on climate agenda at home, he has also inspired resistance in Europe and across the Western World. Her support also highlights the presence of prominent figures like AOC and others green activists in Biden’s campaign who are committed to a radical restructuring of America advocated by Thunberg and her anti-capitalist ilk.

I suspect Greta, Megan & henpecked Harry are not the keys to getting the young kids out to vote for someone that is old enough to be their Great-Grandfather,
You’re a foreigner. If you expect to influence our elections, buy a congresssman or two, or shut your mouth.
How dare you!?!
She needs to make here fortune while she knows it all.
Maybe she should focus on STEM, life has not been kind to her appearance wise, not likely to marry money, though she is much better off than the Bernstein girl.
He looks old beyond her years. She also looks like she’s never smiled.
Sad.
Or read a book.
She always reminds me of the kid in Willie Wanka who demands that ‘I want an Oumpa Luompa Now!!’.
Remind me again, why should I care what a mentally ill foreign child thinks?
The next time I care will be the first.
What a ugly, warped child.
Her parents should be drawn and quartered.
but first, make them eat lutefisk.
No, Hákarl. It’s Iceland’s national dish and is made from Greenland shark meat. Greenland shark is full of toxic chemicals that act like antifreeze so the fish can live in Arctic waters, and if eaten freshly caught the meat would quickly kill a person. To make it survivable you have to bury the fish and let it rot for six months or so. Note I didn’t say, “To make it edible.”

“Hakarl — Iceland’s National Dish Is Basically Rancid And Toxic Shark”
Lutefisk is too good for these monsters.
Hey Scoldilocks!
no one with an IQ larger than their hat size gives a damn what you think, about anything.
Scoldilocks! Okay, I’m torn between that and “Doomsday Addams.”
On a plus note, she isn’t hiding her “crazy” so most teen boys now know to steer well clear of her.
Sexy, smart, sane. Pick two.
Unfortunately, Miss Thunberg seems 0 for 3.
There’s no shortage of chicks who go gaga even over death row inmates, I’d be surprised if that brand of crazy was strictly sex-linked.
Paul, my thought exactly, you beat me to it.. Gave you a thumbs up
Well, I’m sold.
In what State is St. Greta registered to vote in?
Probably all 57 states knowing the Democrats.
“I never engage in party politics. But the upcoming US elections is above and beyond all that” said Time Magazines “Person of the Year”.
So very sad that the Left relies on the hyperbolic rants of a sad child.
The Left relies on the hyperbolic rants of an erstwhile D-list actress and her boy toy, Prince Ginger, so why not Greta?
In the State of Hysteria.
There’s a general semantic rule that applies to the grammatical construct she used: everything between the “I” and the “but” is a complete lie.
Trump, not known for holding his punches, called her “a teenager working on her anger management problem”
She’s not “working on it”; she’s nurturing it, even marinating in it. Ergo, Trump Lied!
But enough of Trump. I say Greta’s going to grow up to be one ugly adult.
Like we saw with Ruth Ginsburg, chronic hate makes you eventually go all Dorian Gray, and it shows on the outside.
Used to be I didn’t believe in that stuff, but with age and maturity I’m starting to change my mind.
Like we saw with Ruth Ginsburg was decent looking when she was young, but somewhere, sometime in her life, she took a wrong turn.
Like Dorian Gray. It takes a while.
The Grets is going to meet David Hogg and they will produce Gretta-Hogglets. Then shall you know obnoxiousness.
Can you imagine teh investigations if someone like this throws their foreign support behind Trump? The Irish did let’s see how the propaganda machine erupts.
Plenty of foreigners support Trump. It’s their right.
Great endorsement for Trump.
Someone ask Biden what he thinks of Greta’s position on fracking.
Waiting for the memes with lutefisk baited breath. Greta and Joe, what a pair. For some reason I bet her hair doesn’t smell so good. Poor Joe!
I know it is “bated” breath but ….
I never do…BUT…
In other words, you do!
Not to mention you’re a voice that is so over the top that your adherents are extremists.
Oh, and please practice what you preach.
There’s no way she writes those tweets.
Maybe her father is writing them?
We’re screwed.
If we stopped paying attention to Greta Thunberg maybe just maybe she’d fade away, sort of like Al Gore?
Is this the girl they hired to give charm lessons to Kamala?
Oh, noes! We’re doomed! Biden’s got the teenaged Swedes with Asperger’s vote all locked up.
I no, I’m horrible. But I bring it up for a reason. First, Greta Thunberg isn’t shy about telling the world about her condition. Second, having Asperger’s means something. She displays the classic symptoms of being depressive, anxious, even suicidal (how long did she go without eating again after ADULTS drove her to climate hysteria?). She is also obsessive and cognitively rigid. The latter simply means people with Asperger’s have difficulty when trained to think about something one way in ever thinking about that something any other way.
A psychologist once described cognitive rigidity using a simple block sorting exercise. The subject of the experiment is told to sort blocks first by size, then by color. Then the subject is given different shapes to sort by size and then color. Always size first, then color. The subject is told this is a timed test, and that there are rewards for lowering the times. Then the psychologist throws a curve ball and tells the subject to sort by color first, then size. Cognitively flexible individuals will make the switch easily. Cognitively rigid individuals won’t be able to make the switch without difficulty or at all depending on their degree of rigidity. This is for a simple task; imagine how much more difficult it is for Greta Thunberg to change how she thinks about a much more complex subjects like climate change.
She is a font of bad information and junk science when it comes to climate change. But that is how her programmers who are now using her as the poster child for their political program have indoctrinated her. So she obsesses about climate change, and moreover she can only think about climate change the way she was indoctrinated to think about it. She has her data set programmed into her and she simply can not accept contrary information or even information that would cause her to doubt the certainty she has about her conclusions.
So the cognitively impaired Swedish teenager supports the cognitively impaired and rapidly declining Joe Biden. Or, the victim of child abuse at the hands of radical leftist Euro-socialists supports the victim of elder abuse at the hands of radical leftist anti-American socialists.
The difference is Greta Thunberg really doesn’t deserve to be used this way. She’s a child.
Biden on the other hand has a fifty year long rap sheet (h/t Ace) of public malfeasance and perfidy. Would he have even gotten elected to office at all without lying about how his wife was killed along with his daughter by a drunk driver? She wasn’t. The truck driver who hit her car was stone cold sober. Moreover, it appears she was at fault for pulling out in front of him. Which isn’t to say she deserved what she got. But for fifty years Biden has been unfairly, baselessly, and callously causing grief for the truck driver (now deceased) and his family for political gain.
I don’t agree with people who think it’s painful to watch Biden get used this way. That it’s sad to see him end his career this way. Not me. I think it’s justice.
I’ve seen video of Antifa protesters bring their toddlers in strollers. When Antifa tries to force their way into a building they’ll put the “moms” with strollers at the front of the crowd, sometimes these “moms” are even banging the strollers against the doors. When the police respond they start screaming, “My baby! You’re going to hurt my baby! Help! Help!”
The typical Antifa tactic of applying a false narrative in real time to their own violence. Like when they scream that the police are “running over” “peaceful, innocent” protesters. When if fact the video shows violent rioters mobbing a squad car and even jumping on top of it.
I really do feel bad about Greta Thunberg being used this way by her activist parents and their activist leftist comrades. Children with Asperger’s can be raised by caring parents to be less anxious, less depressive, and more cognitively flexible. But that doesn’t suit the parents’ political agenda, apparently, so instead they reinforce the worst aspects of her condition. That’s inexcusable.
Biden, though? He made his bed so now he can lie in it.
Yes, she is a child.
She’s also a dummy.
People with Asperger’s tend to have average to above average intelligence. She’s not a dummy, although her parents literally treat her as one; a ventriloquist’s dummy. Her parents and their activist friends filled her head with leftist pseudo-climate “science” propaganda which she dutifully regurgitates on cue, and OBTW they then traumatized her.
https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/greta-thunberg-depression-father-svante-radio-4-today-climate-protest-a9263936.html
“Greta Thunberg’s father has opened up about his daughter’s struggles with depression ‘three or four years’ before she began her school strike against climate change.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme, which Greta guest-edited, Svante Thunberg revealed his daughter ‘fell ill’.
‘She stopped talking, she stopped eating,’ Svante said, adding that his daughter ‘was basically home for a year’.
‘She didn’t eat for three months,’ he added, ‘which is of course the ultimate nightmare for a parent.’”
Now they’re making money off her.
https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/626179/our-house-is-on-fire-by-greta-thunberg-svante-thunberg-malena-ernman-and-beata-ernman/
“When climate activist Greta Thunberg was eleven, her parents Malena and Svante, and her little sister Beata, were facing a crisis in their own home. Greta had stopped eating and speaking, and her mother and father had reconfigured their lives to care for her. Desperate and searching for answers, her parents discovered what was at the heart of Greta’s distress: her imperiled future on a rapidly heating planet.”
Yes, right. All on her own Greta became so depressed about climate change, so distressed about how she had no future, she couldn’t go to school, talk, or eat (although her dad Svante is clearly lying about how long she went without eating because no one has ever gone even two months without eating even with adequate water intake). The sperm donor in the family is correct that NORMALLY such a thing would be a parents nightmare. But for him and the egg donor in this cabal of child abuse, Malena Ernman, it was their dream. In Greta they had the perfect ventriloquist’s dummy. Once they fill her head with falsehoods she doesn’t have the cognitive flexibility to actually evaluate contrary data and think differently than she was indoctrinated to think by her parents and other activists. Her condition forces her to cling to the first things she learned about climate change, which were of course a pack of lies.
She didn’t become depressed out of some independent search for truth. Somebody packed her head full of lies and sent her into a deep, nearly suicidal depression (again, classic symptoms of Asperger’s). Again, normal, loving parents wouldn’t do this to a child diagnosed with this condition. But not her sperm and egg donors, F list celebrities unknown outside of Sweden. It’s a gold mine. Not only does she repeat what she was told to think and say, she’s now beyond criticism. “How dare you attack a child with autism, you planet raping capitalists!” They are finally getting the international fame they clearly always craved. Malena, a vocalist, and Svante, an actor acclaimed for his 1997 “break out” film “Skärgårdsdoktorn.” They’re mildly famous in Sweden, a nation of just over 10 million. Pretend you grew up in Milwaukee and imagine you have world class comedic ability. But no one outside of Michigan has ever heard of you. You see the same sort of attention seeking among academics
I’m not attacking the child. I’m attacking her stage parents who did this to her, and are now using her. It reminds of more than just stage parents who try to live their ambitions for fame through their child. It reminds me of Antifa protesters who bring their children to protests and put them between the protesters and police (Hamas does the same thing, firing rockets recklessly from amid apartment buildings and when one goes off course and kills a family the parade the bodies of children and claim “the Joooos” did it; more on the leftist/Islamic alliance another time). I would call them vultures, but that’s an insult to vultures. Can you imagine how much the outdoors would stink if the carcasses of dead animals just laid around and rotted. Vultures perform a valuable service by cleaning up the world. Leftists (and radical Muslims) on the other hand don’t do anybody or anything any good by running around the world stinking up the place.
Greta isn’t a dummy. She is impaired, knows she’s impaired, her parents know she’s impaired, and they exploited and weaponized Greta precisely because of her impairment. It’s not her fault.

Is this young Swedish tart lying now or when she first made this comment? Perhaps her mild mental challenge should limit the influence, masquerading as knowledge, by her parents.
” The United States saw the largest decline in energy-related CO2 emissions in 2019 on a country basis – a fall of 140 Mt, or 2.9%, to 4.8 Gt. US emissions are now down almost 1 Gt from their peak in the year 2000, the largest absolute decline by any country over that period. ”
