Canadian company X-site apologises for Greta Thunberg sexualised image, says 'Will do better'
I know how much everyone enjoys trolling in the Trump age...that was how he got elected actually, by trolling...and that is how he will be re-elected......I troll too..it's fun....but when I troll, its to highlight the depravity that consistently pops up on the "conservative" side of the aisle...So let's take the people who think climate change is a hoax or at the very least overblown -- they all seem to hate this Greta Thunberg chick...but at what point does it cross the line? Seriously?
So basically, some Canadian based energy company started passing out sticker decals to its employees, mostly decals that the employees could wear on their hard-hats or other equipment....The sticker depicted a female with pigtails -- well here, I will let you see for yourself:
"Alberta-based oilfield company X-Site Energy services has apologised for a sexualised image of renowned environmentalist Greta Thunberg...X-Site Energy Services had initially denied producing the sticker or being associated with it..[but the uproar prompted an apology] 'X-Site Energy Services released a statement saying, “We recognize that it is not enough to apologize for the image associated with our company logo on the decals that circulated last week. This does not reflect the values of this company or our employees, and we deeply regret the pain we may have caused"
Now let's put aside the fact that Greta is a child, she is not a grown woman -- why does simulating sex with her make your case about opposing climate change?? That is like Greta or anyone else who is in favor of fighting climate change -- taking the likeness of the Exxon CEO's teen daughter and sexually depicting her doing something with the caption "Take That Big Oil!!!" -- except that, that is a hypothetical...the Greta sticker actually happened -- and simply saying "hey we were just triggering the libs" is not a justification...
