    When you hit 40 you should goddamned know calling an adult ‘little’ is fucking disrespectful regardless of how old you happen to be or your outlook on how infantile younger people are.

      Yes I’m sure while Palestinian children starve to death Greta is over there fuming about being called “little” by fellow activists

        There will always be bigger issues, the world is imperfect. This doesn’t mean any other smaller issue is somehow not valid or disqualified. Multiple issues exist and can be addressed at the same time.

          That’s true. Greta obviously will be the person who will prioritize the starving children in Palestine, while I guess you’ve taken up this other injustice. God speed.

      She’s 4’10½"… She’s very small. Little is an adjective used to describe someone who is small. And it’s contextual here because you don’t really need to drag someone so little (…) off by their hair. You can just pretty much pick her up.
