All I get from this is how Greta is putting us all to shame.

She's fighting an unwinnable fight in the face of obvious defeat ... a literal David and Goliath confrontation (and this time there will be no divine intervention) yet she chooses to jump into the fight anyway.

GOP always pretend they could do the same but would only ever cower and scatter like cockroaches at the first sight of danger.

Not sure why but as I read your post I concluded in my head that it kind of makes sense because the only convictions they have, if it can even be called that, is egocentric, while hers are principled and selfless.

They have convictions, felonies mostly.
