    But that’s the thing right? Greta put herself out there, much like Craig Kielberger did when he was a minor, or any number of junior athletes. It’s 100% different when a minor is involved in a crime even when their participation is voluntary.

      put herself out there

      I feel like saying “my race is superior to all the other races” IS *putting yourself out there.

      They were in fucking SOCIAL GROUPS. That is the textbook definition of “putting yourself out there”.

      I won’t protect those who won’t protect others. Why do you?

        Mate, being in baby’s first judo club at the racist YMCA is not the same thing as actively trying to become the face of global climate protest.

        I don’t, but this is the law in Canada: we don’t identify minors who commit or participate in crimes. Full stop. You can disagree with this, but that is the way it is.

            I’m sure they weren’t. But to my original point, anyone publishing one of those photos would take pains to obscure minors. If they’re not certain I’d imagine they’d err on the side of caution.
