What a silly thing to say.
I’m certain that pretty much every person in ukrain or gaza or a bunch if other places has more demonstrated bravery than Greta.
What makes you say that? She’s choosing to put her life in danger for others when she doesn’t have to. How is that less brave than simply being born in a certain place?
Wikipedia says there are 20,000 women in combat roles in Ukraine, who have chosen to put their life in danger for others when they don’t have to. Most of them don’t post videos about it.
Oh, damn. I didn’t know 20k out of 20 million is “most people”. That changes things.
I didn’t say that ?
I did however provide 20,000 examples of women braver than Greta.
"What a silly thing to say.

Are you claiming that there’s only 20k people in Ukraine? Cause otherwise, yeah, you did claim that.
Also, yes, they’re brave no question about that. But they’re protecting their own. Greta is helping others. I’d argue that that’s braver.
I didn’t say that 20k people is most people.
I said pretty much everyone I’m Ukraine or gaza is braver than Greta.
When challenged, I provided the 20k people that I thought were the most salient examples to juxtaposition against Greta, which does not imply that the remaining population is not braver, just less analogous.
The chances that Greta would be injured are infinitesimal, far less than any man woman or child in Gaza.
You can do sound with your definition of “bravery” if you wish, but ultimately Greta is an entitled influencer.
Haha. Jesus, the amount of people in these threads that NEED to believe that she’s useless and a bad person is insane. Whatever lets you sleep at night, I guess.
Why would I need to believe that?
Honestly I think it’s more remarkable that she has such a dedicated following despite not really being special.
Yesterday I watched an interview with an Australian doctor with Médecins Sans Frontières in a hospital in Gaza. She was talking about how they’ve run out supplies, simple things like crepe bandages, and how one of the most common injuries is infants and toddlers with missing limbs.
That’s what a real actual hero looks like. Meanwhile Greta is on a boat posting to her socials.
Edit: by the way, and I don’t mean this in a haughty “I’m cleverer than you” kind of way, you make quotes by starting a line with the right square-bracket:
