“Blah Blah Blah”: Greta Thunberg Mocks Biden
Listen Here:
BUCK: I will never forget a few years ago when Greta Thunberg was, I think, 16 at the time… She’s an adult now and a public figure. So you weren’t allowed to criticize her. One of the reasons the Democrats liked Greta Thunberg so much was that they all worshiped the child emperor of climate change, and if you said anything about how, “This is bizarre.
“She’s 16. She doesn’t know how a pizzeria works, never mind how the global economy should work,” you were shouted at for being a child basher. That was the term. Clay, were you ever called a child basher for criticizing Greta? Because I was once or twice. And I wasn’t even bashing her. I was making fun of the adults who listen to her.
CLAY: Yeah, that was the whole process. I understand. They try to paint you in a corner, right? The minute you come out and respond to someone who was stepping into the public arena, and they were under the age of 18. It was like, “Oh, my God. How dare you disagree with somebody under the age of 18?” which, again, it’s kind of the Democrat plan, right?
They don’t actually attack the substance of what you say. They attack your ability to say it. So if you criticize Black Lives Matter, it’s not a criticism of Black Lives Matter. It’s an endorsement of your own racism or your own “white fragility,” and if you said something negative about Greta Thunberg, it was a function of you hating kids, not —
BUCK: Right.
CLAY: — disagreeing with her positions.
BUCK: Which is also insane, of course, but it’s a human shield tactic, and that’s why they liked it. I mean, every adult who listened to Greta Thunberg when she was going to the U.N. and on CNN should be deeply ashamed. But I think this is great because when the left… Clay, when the crazy left goes after the crazy left it is a highly entertaining spectacle because you’re watching people that have neither principles nor sanity go after each other.
It’s like the Iran-Iraq war when Kissinger said, “You hope they can both lose.” Here is Greta, who is now an adult, so they can’t play the, “Oh, she’s just a kid. Why are you…?” Remember…? I love when she was like, “How dare you,” and everyone was supposed to be, “Oh, my gosh. She’s challenging the world to save itself from climate change!” Here she is mocking the Biden administration on climate change leadership issues.
THUNBERG: This is not about some expensive, politically correct dream at bunny hugging or blah, blah, blah. “Build back better,” blah, blah, blah.
CROWD: (clapping)
THUNBERG: Green economy blah, blah, blah! Net zero by ’25, 2050, blah, blah, blah.
ONE PERSON: (clapping)
THUNBERG: Net zero by 2050, blah, blah, blah! Net zero! Blah, blah, blah. Climate neutral blah, blah, blah. This is all we hear from our so-called leaders: Words! Words that sound great but so far has led to no action.
BUCK: Climate change is a religious belief for people who think they’re too smart for religion, and she is a high priest of this religion. Clay, I honestly believe she could get up there and say, “Climate change” and then just say, “Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah” the whole time, and people would clap in that audience like trained seals. It doesn’t matter what she says.
CLAY: Yeah, and we talked about this before. I literally spend no moments of my life worried about climate change.
BUCK: Zero.
CLAY: Zero. I mean, there are lots of things that I’m concerned about, the fact that we just had a new murder rate record of growth going back to 1960 from the FBI, the fact that we’re about to have the highest tax increase of all time — the fact that we have a president who is, I believe, mentality incapable of analyzing tough decisions and understanding the data to be able to make reasoned choices as it pertains to leading our nation’s response to covid.
Those are just a few of the things that I think about and worry about on a day-to-day basis. Climate change, literally, I do not think about it, other than when we occasionally play a clip or I scroll through the news feed and see that it’s a story of the day. I turn the page. I just really don’t spend anytime on it at all.
BUCK: I mean, I could… There’s interesting conversations to be had with people about things like the U.S. role in Afghanistan. You can get into some back-and-forth and understand that at least there are some competing values.
CLAY: That’s right.
BUCK: The climate change catastrophists are just Looney Tunes. I mean, they really are. I can’t even have a conversation with them because it has gone into the realm of the brain where there should be, in my opinion, a relationship with God in some sense of an actual meaning beyond the here and now. They have filled it with Mother Earth and we have to protect her but not if it means they actually have to take shorter showers. You, Clay, have to take shorter showers.
CLAY: Yeah. They’re not going to give up flying private jets or not have their yachts.
BUCK: They get to be in the private jets. They’re not gonna sell you their homes on Martha’s Vineyard or in Malibu at a discount for some reason, even though they think the coasts are gonna be underwater in 10 years. It’s so strange how that happens.
