Couple of Rebel News reporters swarm her to ask her some tough questions which she has no answers to. At least she's having fun? If the handlers or a script isn't around her mind goes blank perhaps? Still, a amusing watch seeing how everyone seems to be enjoying this little walk and talk. Later it's apparent she's trolling them with the 100 private jets and her being the worst polluter.

They were just badgering Greta about why she doesn't call out Saudi Arabia. That is dishonest and stupid and only for the benefit of the Right-wing trolls so they can pick up on it and stink up Social Media.

This is the same bunch of fake journalists who harassed that guy all down the street at Davos over their own misinterpretation of the Covid vaccine and it's ability to stop transmission.

Those lying fakes were righteously shut down on several Social Media platforms, and then whined about it all over the place. Elon Musk kept them on Twitter, saying Twitter was the source of truth?

I'm generally against censorship, but I'm even more against grandstanding disinformation operations like those idiots' videos.

If they were real journalists (a big if) they would know the vaccine was developed to reduce infection. It did also reduce transmission, but that was a bonus, not a goal in the Covid emergency. They probably do know the vaccine was developed to fight infection, but they lied about it anyway.

Everything they claimed and were saying was total dishonest BS.

Why is that "dishonest" and "stupid"?

And then you start throwing red herrings everywhere. What does Twitter and Covid vaccines have to do with Greta's selectivity regarding the people she claims to be outraged against?

The good thing is that the more Davos is covered by the press, the more ridiculous the people attending appear. Last year they were fed gourmet meals while they told us to eat bugs and worms. Every year they show up in their private jets, each spewing more CO2 than an average small town produces in a year just to get there, and are chauffeured around in gas-guzzling black SUVs. Many are rich elites with oceanfront mansions. And they want us to believe they're serious about CO2? Yeah, right.

If you are a corrupt person, then what is in truth dishonest and stupid will be something you will fight to defend with any absurdist logic you can.

> Last year they were fed gourmet meals while they told us to eat bugs and worms.

Really? How many bugs did you eat last year? How many people do you know who ate bugs last year?

That doesn't resolve you of the obligation to treat every issue as a separate situation, and not just make up something and vilify all the people so you don't have to think and adjudicate issues that are more complex. When you do that it just makes you clearly a dishonest troll.

Thank you for confirming what Davos and the people who gather there really are. It makes for good theater, but they're really just posers and virtue signalers. Sad to say, their asinine Net Zero policy WAS adopted by many governments, and the results so far have been disastrous.

Back in the '70's, environmentalists used to say, "Plant a tree, save the world!" The people in Europe have been having to cut down trees to not freeze to death this winter. "If you are a corrupt person, then what is in truth dishonest and stupid will be something you will fight to defend with any absurdist logic you can." And what we see from Davos and the deeply unserious people who fall for the policies of the WEF is the blind leading the blind. But Rebel News had better not question any of it! 🙄

Those are of course to trick her to say something against the establishment, the powerful vested interests. The very powerful people invited her to Davos to attend World Economic Forum as a mascot for the green capital.

But it is also a serious question about whether she is a politician or an environmentalist. I think the answer is now somewhere in between.

It would not matter what she said, they would spin it in some stupid insulting dishonest way, in the way they asked the question. Those fake journalists should be all tied together and tossed into Kake Davosersee and then laughed at while they all drown.

I find Greta to be very interesting and I hope she has a long public career. She touched a lot of people with her outrage at the way the world is being managed, and it has nothing to do with pandering to the Davos elite.

From the point of view of anyone, you have certain chances in life, and if you are invited to get close to major power brokers you'd be a fool not to go, and a fool to get caught up in stupid questions from stupid fake journalists who only know how NOT to report on news.

I don't think she has decided on whether to be a politician, she is not a little kid anymore, people expect more than just "How dare you!" from her.

If she has decided to be in politics, she would have some policy related ideas or topics. If she does not have those ideas, a few dozens of "think tanks" would volunteer their services.

But I don't think she is closing that door either, if she wants to make any kind of impact, that has to be an option.

The more she gets involved in environmental issues more politics she will be involved, the uglier fight will be.

Again she is not a kid anymore, even she still looks like one. The gloves are coming off.

Censorship is part of media, ever since the beginning. Journalists are censored everyday, by their editors, they are told what to write.

Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1807:"I will add that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them;"

Journalism has forever been about lies and politics, any journalist still employed has to be a part of it.

We are told media freedom is sacred because media are all owned and controlled by rich people and they told journalists to keep writing that day in and day out.
