Climate activist Greta Thunberg was forcibly removed by police from a protest in the southern Swedish city of Malmo on Monday just hours after a local court fined her for disobeying a police order during a similar protest last month.

    Can you call yourself a good activist if you haven’t been removed by police?

    I wish I could be like her, but I’m lazy and like things to be easy for me.

    So she got all that press for a couple hundred bucks in fines. It’s beautiful.

    Thunberg…admitted during the court proceedings that she had disobeyed the police order but pleaded not guilty and said that she was acting out of necessity.

    Right on

    After Monday’s sentencing Thunberg and other activists headed back to Malmo harbour only to be carried away by police again for blocking traffic.

    Lol she went right back to the same spot and blocked the oil trucks again after the sentence. What a bad-ass
