I was morbidly curious so I searched her in YouTube and went to the comments. Why is YouTube such a cesspool? I didn’t even have to scroll, it was right at the top.
It always gets me how angry people get at her and the personal attacks they make. She is literally out there trying to help keep our planet habitable in the same way it has been for hundreds of years. Why are they angry?
They always come up with some critique that kinda makes sense, but it’s also so unreasonable that it will make you realize that you just wasted time arguing with someone who already has their mind made up. For example, they will say “veteran environmentalists are more knowledgeable about what needs to be done”, it’s like okay, I don’t disagree there, how does that invalidate her efforts? At the end of the day, she is trying to make the world a better place, which is not something 90% of the population can genuinely say. It just makes me unreasonably mad that there are so many people that will just hate on anyone trying to do some good.
YouTube comments are literal cancer. It has been known for a long time.
