Greta Thunberg, a well-known climate activist and favorite of the left, was recently detained in Germany during a protest.
However, after being detained, additional video footage was released. This leads to many people saying it looked like the arrest was staged.
The climate activist was at an anti-energy protest in Germany. The plan is to demolish a coal mining town called Lutzerath to make room for a more extensive coal mining operation. This comes as an energy crisis rips through the continent.
Initial footage of the incident shows her grinning while police cart her off. However, then we got to see more footage of the incident. In this footage, the police allow the media to film Greta Thunberg and snap photos. Then, they step in to remove her from the protest. The newly released footage has many people claiming it was just a stunt.
People on Twitter quickly called her out after new footage was released. Greg Price tweeted, LMFAO Greta staged being arrested for the cameras. Ian Miles Cheong said, Yes, the Greta Thunberg arrest was staged for the establishment media.
Police released a statement regarding the incident. According to The Daily Wire, Greta Thunberg was part of a group of activists who rushed towards the ledge, a police spokesperson told Reuters. However, she was then stopped and carried by us with this group out of the immediate danger area to establish their identity.
Thunberg tweeted to inform people that she was released later that day because protecting the climate is not a crime.
Thunberg became well known after her speech centered around complaints regarding how the world functions. She mentioned that ecosystems collapse while adults only care about money and economies. Thunberg then went on to say that we stole her childhood from her. However, Germany is trying to ensure that people have energy, so they have heat and dont die. I think its important we all keep that in mind.
