Nineteen-year-old activist Violet Affleck, daughter of Hollywood actors Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, addressed the United Nations in New York City on Tuesday.
More than five years after the COVID-19 pandemic, she spoke about the importance of using masks and other preventative devices.
That was a week ago.
I get it, some people look forward to becoming next Greta, but why they are still given a tribune at UN, and why this obvious nepotism?
Because social politics is respected in the west, and the reason the rest of the world don't respect the west at all. Imagine listening to some snot nosed brat and taking her seriously.
Imagine listening to some snot nosed brat and taking her seriously.
Imagine allowing anyone as an authority of something on the world stage, and listening to them, that has no education or background in that thing.
Her being a kid of a celebrity or a random nobody isn't my issue. It's that rich and famous, or poor and unknown, either way I'm not sure how they get time at UN to talk about a thing they have not done one day of formal education in.
I'd give 100x more credibility to a random off the shelf epidemiologist on the street. Than anyone...rich or poor, famous or a nobody talking, about it at a world conference.
Your passion for a thing alone, in no way qualifies you to be a world authority on it. Go have your sham paid for TEDx, roleplaying as a TED talk, and leave it at that.

The reigning champion of "where's the proof" "what education does that person have to make his or her statement believable" got his pants in a twist and disregards his usual nosense when leftist activism is at the center stage. Are you consistent in anything? I hope you one day learn why i don't take you seriously at all.
Yea. I have 100%, always, without fail have been consistent in:
Don't listen to people as authorities that have no authority in that field. Never have deviated from that.
And this isn't left or right to me. Thats a you thing, you brought up. This is some rando getting stage time. its not if shes famous to me, it's she's some rando famous or not, given time on world stage.

I know why. I just don't care.
Fuck even when I agree with you on "Why the fuck did she get airtime", you get snarky....I was agreeing with you with my "Imagine..." it was an extension of your statement, not a counter or attack on you or about you. You just despise me so much you see it as such.

Welp that was on me. I read the first line and was like "ohh wow here we go again" and replied. Appologies xD
I was adding onto it as:
"Imagine listening to some snot nosed brat and taking her seriously"
with: "Right? Add to that also imagine famous or not, listening to what she says simply because she was invited to the UN with no background in squat to do with her subject matter".
if she, or some random homeless dude was up there same to me: Who is this? Why are they speaking as a vocal authority on this again? If your name doesn't end in PhD, MPH, or MD (or DO)...how did you get up there to talk about it?
Edit: I say a lot "Stop making stupid people famous"
I guess I need to add "Stop famous people from making other people stupid"

I'm on the same page:
Leave the TEDx talks to the "My own farts smell amazing" crowd, you are the UN. Act like it.
(about TED: TED Talks are fine..but TEDx? hot garbage usually.)
