Yesterday, more than a million unhinged, screaming children walked out of their schools to protest weather. You read that correctly. Inspired by the cult of “climate change” and in search of the ultimate “wokeness” – and with the encouragement of their schools – manic children were on the loose, screeching about impending doom and blaming it on their parents.
Before realizing that no one likes him and ending his sad little Presidential bid, in which he was less popular than toe fungus, New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio deeply drank of the “climate change” Kool Aid and warned of impending catastrophe in an attempt to further fuel the irrational histrionics of the first-world kiddies (many of whom likely hopped in their mommy’s gas-guzzling SUV and demanded to be taken to the mall). Because liberals can’t win unless there’s some kind of imminent doom they promise to solve with other people’s money.
We have ten years to save the planet.
TEN YEARS.
Today’s leaders are making decisions for our environment that our kids will have to live with.
New York City stands with our young people. They’re our conscience. We support the 9/20 #ClimateStrike.

In this case, the Climate Change Cultists scared the crap out of the nation’s children, prompting them to skip school with impunity to demand change.
What change?
No one knows. These screaming brats have no policy suggestions beyond what’s fed to them by imbeciles on Twitter and opportunistic politicians hoping to cash in on their fear.
“We won’t have children until there is action on climate change!” they scream.
Is that a threat or a promise? Stupid people should stop reproducing and polluting the gene pool with more stupid people.
Do we want a cleaner planet? Sure.
Do we want to ensure that future generations aren’t living in filth, that the air we breathe is fresh and clean? Of course!
But to claim that we’re all going to die because the temperature may rise a few degrees in the next 100 years, and to scream and yell that it’s somehow our parents’ fault without putting forth any viable policy proposals is purview of spoiled brats who simply want attention and to skip school for a day.
I’m ready to give up my plastic straws and 90 percent of my salary because I’m inspired by this screeching clownshoe! Aren’t you?
Can't imagine why people wouldn't want to give up cheeseburgers and cars after hearing this powerful speech. #ClimateAction #ClimateStrike pic.twitter.com/PjA7dfQKvQ

These kids are carrying signs, they’re screaming, and they’re complaining. They are throwing public tantrums. You know what they’re not doing? They’re not advancing policy proposals beyond “WE MUST DO SOMETHING!”
And that’s the biggest problem with these protests. Beyond parroting talking points from morons like Occasional-Cortex and other opportunists fomenting panic, these children have nothing. Nothing but absurd demands for “100 percent zero emissions.” No knowledge. No scientific insight. No comprehension of the consequences even if this goal was achievable, which it is not.
Zero fossil fuels in reality will result in the deaths of millions of people in poor nations. Less developed countries still use coal. Poor people still need to heat their homes and prepare their food. Freezing and starvation for millions of people will be the result of these policies.
Carbon credits do nothing but put money in the pockets of charlatans to assuage the guilty consciences of people too lazy to give up their SUVs and sports cars in favor of a bike or a scooter.
Its become a radical and dangerous new age pagan cult or Go Green Reject your Parents Listen to Big Green Brother this is just another Child Crusade and Big Green Brother is behind it all why else did Ted Turner create junk like Captain Planet and the Planeteers,One Child On Voice and Network Earth as well as National Geographic Explorer back in the 1990’s it was all that Save the Rain Forests scam
They aren’t even that. They’re just kiddies looking for an excuse to be out of the classroom. I saw one adult child leading some of the younger children around blaming capitalism for CO2. Yeah… like the capitalist nations are not reducing their CO2 and the bulk of CO2 comes from India and China.
I would say they should be spending more time in the classroom, but I think they only teach stupid anymore.
And when these kids “walked out of” school (in my time in school it was called “skipping”) where were the teachers?
Here is how to end this crap;
one week’s detention for every kid that skipped that day
And where were the teachers while those kids were skipping? Any teacher that was not in their classroom should be suspended for one week without pay. If any teacher is found to have encouraged their young students (encouraging delinquency) to skip that day should be fired.
@retire05: At the end of the school year, announce they will have to attend an additional day for each day they “saved the world”.
Zero emmissions? turn off the furnace and the AC in the school, the teachers and they must do their part! Walk to school use chalk board slates, no devices that use electricity which is created using fossil fuels. The will need to give up any clothing with rayon or polyester. Show them how to shear a sheep and weave, they then can use a treadle sewing machine to make their clothing.
A weekend on an Amish farm might wake them up.
Have these children grappled mentally with the idea that a few angry Muslims can do immeasurable damage to earth’s carbon levels in the air?
Have they not read about Saddam’s destruction of Kuwait’s oil fields?
What about the Iranian attack on the Saudi oil fields?
European children like their little autistic leader surely must have noticed all the constant Car-B-quing Muslims do in Europe!
Then we have to add in all those underwater volcanoes that have been melting ice at our poles.
Finally the giant willful pollution of India and China.
Doesn’t it make these protesters’ targets in the affluent West look like the little boy who tried to stop Holland’s flooding by putting one finger in a dike?
It was hopeless then and, if GW is really going to destroy the planet in 10 years, it is hopeless now.
Of course, thankfully, that’s not the case.
The planet is going to be fine.
If a shift in where the optimal temperature is for, say, growing wheat, then new places win the wheat-growers’ lottery.
That’s all.
@kitt:
Also, no visual aids, calculators or ipads. Too energy-intensive and ALL made from plastic. Good old wooden pencils and note pads made from recycled paper.
@Nan G:
The world may end in 10 years, but liberals believe they should be able to spend those final years in opulent luxury courtesy of the people they strip of their livelihoods.
