Where is the original from?

This. Just dropping a quote without a source?
Edit: it is from just that article

Le Chat claims that it is from here, said by Ersin Celik. --> https://www.indiatoday.in/...

Lol it is from the actual article above

Of course this isn't acceptable. But it's hardly a balanced report. For instance, she's 22 - hardly a little girl.
undergroundoverground 61 points a year ago
The description is of her size, not her age.
CannonFodder -10 points a year ago
Oh, so there was another Greta on the boat who was bigger, and they just used big/little to distinguish?
Or were they trying to imply Greta is physically weak, or fits in small places? Wft does is make a difference if she's 'little'? Torturing anyone is bad. I'd say it's especially bad to torture a child; which is what the quote was trying to imply.

This quote says little Greta, not little girl.
IsoKiero 5 points a year ago
I thought that it was a bit odd wording too based on the quote alone, implying that Greta was some fragile small thing everyone should protect instead of brave young woman that she is. But then I read the article and in context it makes sense, that's something I might say too in the same situation.
CannonFodder -5 points a year ago
Of course. And that's the main source the reporter is using, so it's relevant.
NoneOfUrBusiness 2 points a year ago
What other source did you want? IDF soldiers explaining how they did nothing to her at all and she deserved every bit of it.

22 is young, my dude. Isn't that the tragedy we're meant to learn from 2 world wars, that war is a meat grinder for the young?
CannonFodder -2 points a year ago
Yes, wars are horrible.

Your comment got -70 downvotes but this dude essentially said the same thing with majority agreeing him with +200 upvotes. Lemmy, pick a side already, sheesh.
CannonFodder 2 points a year ago
Funny. I can handle downvotes! Do they even get tallied somewhere on Lenny?

In all seriousness, the world needs to cut all military, economic, and political ties and support to Israel until they end the genocide and submit to the ICC and ICJ for war crimes and crimes against humanity prosecution. Israel needs to face consequences for every single atrocity they've committed.

Every headline I see about this gets more watered down
"Greta forced to use bathroom that hadn't been cleaned in 6 hours, handed towel made in Israel to dry her face"
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they were pricks to her, but I just saw three stories in a row, one that she had been beaten, one that she had be dragged by her hair, and now this one saying that her cell was dirty and she had to hold flags...

I also am waiting for real information. I’m very concerned and angry about this, but I don’t want to get sucked into false information.
The solid information we have is plenty horrible enough to be angry about.
festkoerper 4 points a year ago
She doesn't want to be sexualised any further than she she already is.
It is her most innate human right.
Which is to defend, instead of "discussable".

I don't understand why many of the world's governments keep walking on eggshells around this issue. I assume it's just money. It's always money or influence.

Der Witz ist: Du machst es Dir noch einfacher: Weil Du Dir einbildest, dass dein Papierstrohalm Elon Musks JET's CO²-Austoss behindert.
festkoerper -5 points a year ago
Also trägst Du deren Argumentation ernsthaft ? Weswegen wir im Supermarkt nur "vegane" Kost finden ?
Du nennst das Stammtischparole: Ich nenne das den Grund, weshalb Elon Musk Twitter gekauft hat:
Damit er den Account, der seinen Privatjet sachkonform und rechtlich einwandfrei dokumentiert hat abstellten konnte.

Aber ich beherrsche Latein. Deswegen brauche ich keine Anglizismen. Außer ich brauche Sie.
I.d.R, berufe ich mich auf Verträge, die Menschen miteinander geschlossen haben:
zum Bleistift die Haager Landkriegskonvention, die explizit den Einsatz von Giftgasen verbietet.
Was dann doch "passiert" ist.

Passing this through DeepL results in:
My theories about Greta Thunberg are based on diesel exhaust fumes.
End all wars, nationalise arms manufacturers: 70% of climate-damaging emissions will be permanently eliminated.
Simple.
The point about Greta is that a simple person should not sell their conscience.
For me, that was the "message" about her as a person.
RidderSport 3 points a year ago
Not quite correct. The theories are written on a diesel-exhaust pipe.
