No, I wouldn’t support someone enriching themselves by exploiting their kids. You wouldn’t understand it seems.
Imagine a child with autism taking an interest in something their parents are passionate about 
‘Blaming’ parents for having the worlds most influential teenager promoting a positive message is classic begrudgery

Calm down mate, why can’t you see that a “joke” about hoping a 16 year old girl dies is inherently funny, the very definition of top quality humour, and not at all completely weird, or something.

Lads want her to die so they can blame the parents.

I think it’s mainly because they’re horrible little busibodies who get slightly sexually aroused at the thought of a 16 year old girl drowning in the middle of the Atlantic, but yes, I also think wanting to blame parents because they’ve no other way of feeling any sort of happiness is a by product of that.

You’re happy that an autistic child is being used by her parents to sell books. Classic Tackies.
You’re looking for somebody to blame when somebody espouses a worldview contrary to your 1940s one, classic pampers

The classic right wing, science denying, knuckle dragging playbook. Make the argument about a 16 year old girl. “BUT, BUT, BUT SHE’S 16, SHE WOULDN’T KNOW A THING, HER PARENTS ARE USING HER, SHE’S PROBABLY A VEGGO AND AN ATHEIST, SHE’S AUTISTIC, ETC ETC ETC”.
Classic deflection.
Meanwhile, average global temperatures are set to increase by 4-5 degrees in our lifetime, which will be pretty fucking disastrous.
But it’s more important to slag off a 16 year old girl and her parents than actually do something about the existential problem.
I hope you right wing snowflakes die in a fire, preferably one caused by global warming.

I’m just giddy about getting back to school to inspire the kids with news of Greta’s latest escapades, pardon me.

I’ve given it a like but I wish no real harm to @Ambrose_McNulty, if my way of life was threatened I may also fight back with Neanderthal opinions

Rubbish. I’m all for saving the environment but I don’t think the exploitation of a 16 year old autistic child is the way to do it. Bizarre that a primary school teacher thinks that’s ok.
If you cared about the environment why haven’t you re-wilded your farm?

That would be bad for the environment.
Ok, I’m out guys
I don’t see why my profession should matter in this, certainly no more than your beef farmer persona, which is more pertinent to the debate?
One thing I do know from my job though is that kids will listen to Greta, they’ll listen to Flossie and Saoirse Exton, you’d rather they put up and shut up, leave it to the ‘experts’ and have the kids falling asleep
You blame the parents because the child is untouchable but you attack the message

I blame the parents for exploiting their kid, you keep dancing around that? Why is that? You’re happy that they’re profiting from this it seems.
I’m very happy that her message is getting a global audience, that appears to disgust you and you’re lashing out by blaming the mother, an uppity woman no doubt
I know quite a lot about the conditions which affect Greta, while there is no such thing as typical autism one thing which is very common is bullishness and single mindedness, she may well have picked up the interest from her parents but it is her own determination that drives it,
You insist that her mother is to ‘blame’ as if it’s a fact, I wouldn’t mind being to blame for something as brilliant as that
A lot of word there and none of them address the question I asked you, are you a bit rattled mate?
You’ll have to help me out, approximately how much money have the parents made off the back of the daughter?
