Who are "they" here?
- StreamBright 7y agoWhoever putting children on the stage. Do you think that a 16years old gets up one day and says I am going to go the UN! Think again.
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoNo. She gets up one day with an opinion she's felt strongly about and goes alone with a hand made sign to sit outside her government's office. Next day others joined. Then it kept escalating. Kids have strong opinions. Teenagers can have especially strong opinions. Of course it has to be a conspiracy with someone behind the scenes pulling strings.
- rdtwo 7y agoOr more specifically a very well funded organized movement made her their figurehead after she was “discovered”. Same way Disney discovers their talent
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoWhich very well funded movement is that, and what evidence is there please?
- dragonwriter 7y agoNo, going to the UN is there outcome of a movement that started out as a one-person protest at a national parliameny, something that's a lot more plausible for a teen. Still, not common, but there are enough teens in the world that there are substantial absolute numbers that are deep into the tails of any distribution. Not everyone is average.
