The former kickboxing champion had thought of teasing her about the emissions of his luxury cars. She didn’t send them word and her response went viral
Greta Thunberg doesn’t fit. Not anymore. The young Swedish symbol of climate activism has put aside her yellow raincoat to pull out her nails, cleverly used to type a tweet that will go down in history. The text goes like this: «Sure, please, enlighten me. Write to me at celhopiccolo@fattiunavita.com». It is none other than the rhyming response to the provocation tweeted with a photo attached by the former Anglo-American kickboxing athlete Andrew Tate.
Already banned from the social network in the past, Tate is known for his arrogance. This time he had decided to use his energies making fun of Thunberg: «Hello Greta Thunberg. I have 33 cars. My Bugatti has a W16 8 liter quad turbo engine. My two racing Ferraris have a 6.5 liter V12. This is the beginning. Please send me your email address so I can send you a complete list of my car collections and their huge emissions.”
In a few hours, the activist’s reply exceeded one and a half million likes. It must be said that it is not the first time that Tate attacks the environmental cause with sarcasm and arrogance: after the speech of the founder of Fridays for Future at the United Nations, the sportsman had published a video alternating clips of the intervention with clips in which he himself was driving supercars and private jets.
For some users, Greta’s response closes 2022 on a high note, winning the title of “best post of the year”.
yes, please do enlighten me. email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com https://t.co/V8geeVvEvg
