It seems highly unlikely that a 12-year-old girl could have entered such a strictly regulated country without assistance. Those accepting this scenario might be misinformed and fooled at the same time
- You're saying this 12 year old didn't run away from home, travel from India to UAE alone without proper visa/passport, and then sneak into this UN event with the sign hidden in her socks? Shit, thank God you're here to clarify that.
  
  Of course she had support from her parents and someone who was able to get her in the door. Most effective acts of protest are heavily organized. That doesn't detract from anything.
- If my kid told me they wanted to interrupt this farce I'd buy the plane tickets for them
  
  I’d teach them how to make pipebombs.
  
  Could’ve made a much bigger difference in the world in an instance.
- Has anyone even suggested that?
  
  I don't really get the point you're making?
- You watched the video, yea? It did happen. Or are you just saying that it wasn't only her involved in getting there?
Staged for sure
Staged just like any shit the autistic psycho of Greta retardberg
- The young blood claws for its right to exist as the old blood imposes its will upon the world.
- I've only just realised that with the way federation works, each user effectively represents their instance and it's community. Now I know to not give anyone at fanaticus.social any attention.
  
  Um no?
  
  Why would you assume a random user account on a site represents that site?
  
  Eh, this is a brand new account. I don't know anything about the instance but I wouldn't hold a ban dodger against them.
