Greta Thunberg has been named Time's 2019 Person of the Year, becoming the youngest ever recipient of the title.

The activist, 16, inspired the school strikes for the climate movement after going alone to the Swedish parliament on Fridays.

The then 15-year-old held up a sign that read 'skolstrejk för klimatet', which translates as 'School strike for the climate'.

Since then she has become the face of the youth climate movement, drawing large crowds with her appearances at protests and conferences over the past year and a half.

Time magazine is run by traitors to the human race. Great Thunburg is nothing more than a poster child, a tool used by a collection of European billionaire oligarchs and central bankers who want to kill off 90 percent of the human race.

Naming the "protestors" in Hong Kong would not be better. They're really a gang of rioters who are tools of a British-directed color revolution scheme for regime change in Beijing.

The surprise is that more "awards" were not bestowed upon her, yet the day is young.

"British-directed color revolution scheme "

Do the Brits have that much temerity anymore?

Beijing I think is blaming Washington not London.

There are only 3 British leaders that would have the cohones to do such a thing. They are Thatcher, Blair and Johnson. Thatcher is deceased. Blair is out of power. The Hong Kong thing started before Johnson came to power.

All the other Tory leaders since Thatcher except for Johnson lack the huevos to do what you surmise.

The Brits did interfere in the American election in 2016 to ingratiate themselves with Hillary, who they thought was going to be the winner. They never imagined that the shrewish fat harridan would lose. The thing is that they were approached. They did not initiate.

That is my take.

This nonsense that this adolescent, embarrassing climate change nazi is named "person of the year" is proof that Time Magazine is pure crap propaganda. Behind this fact lies a deep, significant problem for the world--the takeover of western media by forces of darkness.

LOL. Watch Sweden anoint her PM when she turns 21.

/half kidding. But I bet she WILL be assigned some position of official authority in the near future.

Next will be a Nobel prize of some sort to float her way.

Well,...this is it for Time magazine.

A meaningless gesture by a now near forgotten shell of a once famous and respected publication.

Making the 'people of Hong Kong' "person of the year" is recipe for disaster considering that while the movement and such is noble and warranted, the spread of violence and riots not connected with those movements muddy's the waters of it.

Great Thunburg is Time Magazine Person of the Year? How dare they!!

She's done so much harm to the climate change political movement. Nobody likes to be talked down to by a teenager, especially one who doesn't even seem to grasp half the things she's made to say. Even in the highly astroturfed worldnews subreddit this was the general sentiment amongst her former supporters. I truly hope that when the world's media decides they've used up all her goodwill she can just go back to being an anonymous kid and the spotlight doesn't ruin her life.

Time, yes, the magazine that had Hitler and Stalin as men of the year. Their socialist roots run long and deep
