Climate Change?

[Ninurta]

She has OCD, and behaves like it. She can only see her point of view and cannot understand anything else

Yeah and her prompted over-the-top acting shows how vacant she is on this supposed 'catastrophic' subject!

It must truly suck to attempt to stare someone down with such a fierce look, and have them utterly fail to notice you at all.

I got curious, and searched out the video of her speech at the UN. On the face of it, it was horrifying... but as we shall see, "the face of it" does not really show what is under the surface.






Now, in all honesty, I was utterly prepared to light this youngster's drama display all up... I don't care who is watching me, I don't care who blames me, and I haven't asked anyone's permission nor forgiveness for anything... and I don't even care who calls me "evil", because they're probably not  wrong - and I don't care about that, either. BUT - I figured that there had to be something wrong with this child, so I set about researching to find out what.

I found the following explanation of what her mental issues are, written as a series of tweets by a parent (going by the handle of "(((Road Bear Life)))" ) with a child having the same issues:

I was not going to do this as I do not like too personal information on the internet, but the latest Greta Thunberg video is too impactful. I do not care what one believes about the climate, but I do care that people understand what is happening with this young lady. 1/

I have a child with high functioning autism (aka Aspregers). Not every person with this syndrome experiences all of the resultant effects, and the effects vary by degree. Sometimes you cannot tell if a person has Aspregers at first blush, but it will eventually emerge. 2/

Two common characteristics that seem to follow in all cases are "literalism" and "rigidity" of thought. Also, hyperfocus on narrow topics is common. Aspregers was known as the "little professors" disease, because Aspregers kids could become experts in narrow topics. 3/

The expertise is not a creative expertise but a rote one. Causation and emotional understanding are difficult for Aspregers sufferers, especially children. Aspergers suffers also are very strict adherents to "the rules" once established in their heads. This ties to rigidity. 4/

If an Aspregers sufferer establishes a set of "facts" in their minds, it is very fixed. It is so fixed that even contrary facts presented to them are rejected in favor of the previously established "facts." If the counter-information continues, the sufferer becomes frustrated. /5

The frustration turns to hurt and anger, because of the literalism, rigidity, and the way their minds attach to rules and items they have already establish as concrete. The concrete fact is often the first "fact" on the subject they hear. /6

Now imagine a person with these predisposed inclinations hearing for the first time 1) the earth is atmosphere is heating at an incredible pace; 2) humans are causing this rapid heating; and 3) the whole planet is going to die if it is not fixed in 12 years. /7

These three items, for a person not on the spectrum can be weighed, evaluated, and put into perspective. Contrary points can be reviewed and expectations adjusted. For an Aspregers sufferer, this is not easily, if at all achieved. The anxiety compounds. /8

You have both the anxiety of being told you are going to die, coupled with the anxiety and frustration of having contra-facts butting against your established "facts" and literal implications. Parents of children with Aspregers struggle against this convergence every day. /9

How does one teach perspective and thought flexibility to a person whose mind demands literalism and structured "facts" (this is why some Spectrum people are great coders)? The answer is patiently doing so. Demonstrating the safety of exceptions to rules, and alternatives./10

When I see Ms. Thunberg, I see all 9f the frustration of my child, with none of the attempts at perspective and flexibility of thought. In some ways Spectrum people appear robotic because of their rigid mindset, but they are not. The are frustrated, and hurt, and angry. 11/

For a person like me, seeing her rigidity makes me unhappy. However, seeing her frustration and tears at the UN makes me angry. Those pushing her into the spotlight on these issues deserve shame. She is not a robot. Her beliefs are tainted by the Spectrum that frames them. /12

She is being compelled into corners her mind has difficulty navigating, and does nothing but feed her fears (of literal death), and frustration that her mind's eye does not square with the messy, grey, emotional world. Apregers sufferers must learn to navigate these areas. /13

These areas are instinctive for those of us not on the Spectrum. No matter where you are on this issue, remember Ms. Thunberg's view is not your view. Someone should be helping her navigate her rigidity and anxiety, not using it as an "automatia" prop. /14

I know nothing of Swedish law, but they apparently have no laws against child abuse, because this clearly is - what they have done to this child, yet no one is in prison for it.


So instead of lighting her up, I feel only pity for this young-un, and pledge to thoroughly bitch-slap the very next Leftist who has the temerity to say "but it's for the children!" in front of me. It is painfully clear it is NOT "for the children" if they have no compunctions against doing this to a child and them weaponizing her. The are NO better than the African war lords putting a AK with six bullets in it in the hands of a 10 year old boy, pointing him at the "enemy", and telling him to "go get 'em!'

Utter bastards, the lot of 'em. Hangin' is too good for 'em.
