A series of new bills working their way through state legislatures in New York, California, Oregon, Hawaii, and several other progressive states will require you to listen to a Greta Thunberg lecture before purchasing gasoline.

Motorists will be required to watch a 20-minute lecture by the 16-year-old climate activist before they purchase gallons and gallons of harmful fossil fuels.

"We want to make sure drivers are informed," said California Governor Gavin Newsom, who says he will sign the bill into law. "So we are having them get lectured by a 16-year-old so they will have all the facts before they do something rash like put gasoline in their cars to go to work."

Once the driver has listened to Thunberg's entire lecture, they will be prompted to complete a quick, fifteen-question quiz to show they understand how horrible they are for driving a car. Drivers who get at least 80% will then be allowed to refuel their vehicles. As they refuel, the screen will simply play a clip of Thunberg saying, "How dare you!" over and over again.

The law will not apply to celebrities purchasing jet fuel.

I call bullshit on this. There is no way in hell that any gas station is going to waste 20 min per customer. Shoot, the lines to purchase gas would be worse than what they were in the 70's when there was a shortage.

You give Snopes 12 hours to fact check this? Do you even know much about the site you are using as your "proof"? Here, let me help you out with that..............

The Babylon Bee - Wikipedia

The Babylon Bee is a news satire website that publishes satirical articles on religion, politics, current events, and well-known public figures. With intentional irony, the site describes itself as "the world’s best satire site, totally inerrant in all its truth claims."[1] It has been referred to in the media as the Christian version of The Onion.[2][3][4]


But, then again, saying that you have to watch a 20 min video to get a tank of gas is pretty ridiculous. Might wanna quit using satire sites as your news sources.

Man, you’re sharp. Nothing gets past you.

Dufus fact checks the Babylon Bee in the political satire group. That’s as funny as the Bee story.
