Don't see the problem here. A kid who managed to reach UN, talked to all leaders in the world and became the face of the scientific consensus on climate change doesn't deserve to be person of the year?

I mean, she's at the age well all of you (and myself) were mainly interested in porn and that's all.

At 16 my biggest achievement would probably be my first sex ever. Her achievement is to have travelled the whole world to uphold what she believes (and the vast majority of people who got an education) is the most important political question of the century.

Who am I to disagree?

HK is nothing. Litterally nothing. Just a poor population fighting its government. We get that every year. Nothing new.
US is trying to make it political against China but that's not even the first revendication for HK protesters. There first revendication is on rents and life cost. It's just that the West likes to make them fighters for freedom, which they are not.

I'm not saying what she did isn't great. It is, she's fighting for the climate. Great.

But there are people in Hong Kong who have been protesting since -- June? -- against China and have been standing their ground. The Chinese government has had to admit that they were shooting live ammunition at the protests -- THEY'RE SHOOTING LIVE AMMUNITION AT THE PROTESTORS -- I HOPE SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT  THAT MEANS.

In the US we barely get 50 percent of people out to vote (Averaging presidential and non pres years) but in Hong Kong they currently have about 30 percent of the population protesting.

.... Times is just trying to sell more magazines, they don't really care about who the best person in the world was for 2019. Just trying to stir up some controversy and bring people to their site and to buy their magazines.

The HK protesters should've won this one. They're the people who are truly fighting against an oppressive government that doesn't care about them. People are literally being shot by police, while protesting, and the news barely covers it.

Shows what side the media, the big corporations, and the politicians are truly on (even Trump)
