Can you call yourself a good activist if you haven't been removed by police?

If they never catch you, yes.

I wish I could be like her, but I'm lazy and like things to be easy for me.

So she got all that press for a couple hundred bucks in fines. It's beautiful.

Thunberg...admitted during the court proceedings that she had disobeyed the police order but pleaded not guilty and said that she was acting out of necessity.

Right on

After Monday's sentencing Thunberg and other activists headed back to Malmo harbour only to be carried away by police again for blocking traffic.

Lol she went right back to the same spot and blocked the oil trucks again after the sentence. What a bad-ass
