We beg to differ.
Some people are so defensive of Greta Thunberg because they think her tantrum was necessary to alert people on environmental issues. I however believe her speech is based on a myth: when you talk of saving the environment, it must include climate change. Either you’re with Thunberg or you’re an enemy of environmentalism. Not for…

Another SJW moment made the latest buzz as a young Swedish girl, Greta Thunberg, made a “stunning speech” where she called world leaders “evil” for ignoring environmental concerns.

I can’t believe in 2019 where we have so much access to information that people still love to play the genetic victim card or some other excuse why the only country on Earth with basketball tunnel vision is so inept once they leave the country:. “Other teams are taller” “Height is might.” “There’s no question…
