    Default New Law Requires You To Listen To Greta Thunberg Lecture Before Purchasing Gasoline

    A series of new bills working their way through state legislatures in New York, California, Oregon, Hawaii, and several other progressive states will require you to listen to a Greta Thunberg lecture before purchasing gasoline.

    Motorists will be required to watch a 20-minute lecture by the 16-year-old climate activist before they purchase gallons and gallons of harmful fossil fuels.

    "We want to make sure drivers are informed," said California Governor Gavin Newsom, who says he will sign the bill into law. "So we are having them get lectured by a 16-year-old so they will have all the facts before they do something rash like put gasoline in their cars to go to work."

    Once the driver has listened to Thunberg's entire lecture, they will be prompted to complete a quick, fifteen-question quiz to show they understand how horrible they are for driving a car. Drivers who get at least 80% will then be allowed to refuel their vehicles. As they refuel, the screen will simply play a clip of Thunberg saying, "How dare you!" over and over again.

    The law will not apply to celebrities purchasing jet fuel.

    It will slow the pit stops down at races, too. That should show those pesky Wood Brothers (who started the quicker pit stops in NASCAR)!!
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    I don't. I would rather see those who used her to further their agenda get what they deserve. Someone indoctrinated this poor girl with their bullshit, let them suffer the consequences.

    No one should wish illness on others....
    You must admit, she's been Very influential here....All the liberals/progressives have bought a Tesla, given up flying on airplanes and RV travel, no longer eat meat, turned off the AC, switched out all the light bulbs....and are reminding all their children/grand children that they're doomed to be extinct in 10 years or so.......that they do not live in a world where they're better fed, educated, healthier, and financially better off than ever before...terrible technology...no resources to deal with any issues they might encounter... I mean how can you not give that a

    Greta Thunberg’s trans-Atlantic voyage on a ‘zero-carbon yacht’ has been rocked by revelations that crew will fly to New York in a gas-guzzling plane to bring the boat back to Europe.
    It is claimed that this would generate more emissions than the yacht saves and threatens to leave the 16-year-old’s plans to chart an environmentally friendly route to the United States in tatters.
    On Wednesday, the Swedish eco-campaigner left Plymouth on the Malizia II for a two-week journey to the United Nations headquarters where she will address a climate change meeting.
    But last night, it was confirmed that two crew will have to fly to the US east coast city to man the 60ft yacht on its return.

    When the black BOY "won" it for having done nothing, it discredited whatever honor the award once carried with it.
