It is good to remember that while every generation believes that it invented sex, every preceding generation forgets that it once believed the same thing.

Jealously Trump's tweet....
 

“So ridiculous.” “Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill!”

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick on Wednesday shed very little light into the NFL's investigation of the organization for videotaping the Cincinnati Bengals' sideline this past weekend. Belichick was rather curt with reporters, marking the third straight day in which he was asked about a team videographer who was caught filming the Bengals' sideline during Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns.

When asked whether the scout involved was aware of the rules that he can't film from the press box, Belichick said the following: "He was doing his job. That's what he was doing, he was doing his job. Like we all tried to do. That's what the football team, the football staff and the coaching staff did last week was try to do their job for Kansas City, and then Cincinnati, and then Buffalo next week and that's it.

A reporter asked a follow-up question, to which Belichick offered a quick response. "I just answered the question. That's it. We have no involvement in it. Zero," Belichick said.When asked if he had heard from the league, Belichick tried to put an end to the line of questioning.

Sound familar? If this isn't taking a page out of Trump's playbook I don't know what is!

Greta Thunberg - 11 December 2019, in Spain
 

Sorry moe, but she isn't a child, she is a teenager, 16, going on 17... with the mind and heart of a mature sane/whole adult. :)

Actually, at a recent UN meeting, quite a few of the delegates representing other countries didn't even stay for her speech... There are a lot of evil people just like Trump - who btw isn't an idiot [he is a very clever so-and-so.... (cough!) ] - who don't like what she is saying and doing, because of their materialistic choices and vested interests, because of their greed, their selfishness, their ambition, and their general lack of moral/ethical character, etc.

Trump - like many people who are or could easily be classified as sexist/misogynist narcissist/sociopath/psychopath - will trash anyone, especially any woman (young or old) speaking with passion. I don't think his malicious lies (which are nothing more than fake news) are worth repeating.

On the other hand, part of Greta's speech is worth repeating:

"Greta, who inspired the school strikes for the climate movement, said: 'The biggest danger is not inaction; the real danger is when politicians and CEOs are making it look like real action is happening, when in fact almost nothing is being done apart from clever accounting and creative PR.'

She said the science showed that, at the current rate of emissions, the world is set to use up the whole 'carbon budget' - the amount of pollution that can be put into the atmosphere and still keep global warming to 1.5C - in eight years."

She said: 'Finding holistic solutions is what the COP should be all about, but instead it seems to have turned some kind of opportunity for countries to negotiate loopholes and to avoid raising their ambition.'

'Countries are finding clever ways around having to take real action, like double-counting emissions reductions, and moving emissions overseas, and walking back on their promises to increase ambitions, or refusing to pay for solutions or loss and damage. This has to stop.'
