Link to tweet
The singer, 72, said he feels for the 17-year-old, whom he thinks has been forced into her beliefs.
I feel for that Greta, he told Mail Online. She has been brainwashed into thinking that there is climate change and there isnt.
He continued: She hasnt done anything wrong, but shes been forced into thinking that what she is saying is true.
Meat Loaf is trending at #5
I thought it was going to be commentary on tRumps dinner the other night

NOBODY - NO ONE - in that clip - CAN ACTUALLY SING.
Especially "Meat Loaf."
BTW, I never thought "Meat Loaf" could sing, or do anything worthwhile.
I have always disliked "Rocky Horror Picture Show," not to mention, anything released by "Meat Loaf," including the "Paradise...Dashboard" shit or whatever.
PLUS, he has the stupidest name I ever heard for a "rock star."
Other than that, I LOVE Meat Loaf!

(13,527 posts)I just assume that a 72 year old man who still calls himself Meat Loaf has studied meteorology to the point where he can confidently contradict the consensus among scientists who believe climate change is man-made.
I love the boomers who are near death and decide to weigh in on climate change.. especially known climatologist Meat Loaf
Dont know whether to believe all the scientists who have studied the impact of current climate change and published their findings across a number of academic and scientific journals or Meat Loaf who is a fully grown man named after Meat Loaf
His name is, and I cannot stress this enough, Meat Loaf.
I am so mad at Meat Loaf that I just went to the flea market and paid twelve cents for his latest 8 Track and threw it out.

(3,538 posts)Alternate facts (courtesy of Kelly Anne) both before and increasingly so during the tRump pResidency is very alarming. I had a reasonably intelligent friend try to argue that there are big bucks to be made in the climate change scientific field, so scientists can not be trusted to comment on climate change!
I looked him straight in the eye and said dude! If a scientist could research and prove that climate change was NOT happening they would be set for life. And possibly win a Nobel prize. And be world famous; the scientist who showed us we have nothing to worry about!
It actually deeply offends me to suggest that scientists the world over are falsifying data and conspiring to promote a world wide hoax all to make a few bucks. Its is actually antithetical to the whole scientific discipline to even suggest that a scientist would pre-judge a theory and then set about falsifying data to support a false theory. In fact, fudging data HAS been done before to promote ideas, and it results in disgrace and derision when the results of experiments could not be duplicated to support a theory.
This is tRumps America now, a world where everything is possible and nothing is real, to quote the song...

(42,784 posts)into believing that there is climate change.
Because, he's Meat Loaf and thus an expert.
Or something.

Fucking Meatloaf? There must be dozens of folks all over the world that give one fuck what he has to say about anything.
