Greta Thunberg, Extinction Rebellion & Spiked

Another well-worth reading article by Spiked.

In fact I haven't yet seen a Spiked article that wasn't worth reading.

I agree.  I had heard of Spiked, but not read anything of their take on news until this morning.  The problem we face with the thought police is that anything that even leans to the right is dangerous whereas even the most far left and deranged are justified and honest, when the reverse is true.

When I first heard her name "Thunberg" I thought, now thats a Swedish car I've never heard of despite the fact I once owned a Saab.

The Ford Thunderbird was an iconic sporty American car. About as far as one can get from the chunderbucket.

Yes they are bonkers, although they may have originally dragged some level headed but concerned people with them.
