The IndependentSign up to the Independent Climate email for the latest advice on saving the planet Get our free Climate email Get our free Climate email SIGN UP I would like to be emailed about offers, events and updates from The Independent. “Where are the adults?” tweeted 16-year-old Greta Thunberg after soon-to-be-60 Andrew Bolt, a columnist for Rupert Murdoch’s The Herald Sun, called her “deeply disturbed” and said she had “so many mental disorders”. “I am indeed ‘deeply disturbed’,” Thunberg tweeted, “about the fact that these hate and conspiracy campaigns are allowed to go on and on and on just because we children communicate and act on the science.” Thunberg became famous after starting the school strike for climate in 2018, which sees students and young people around the world march for the environment. “I have never seen a girl so young and with so many mental disorders treated by so many adults as a guru.” I am indeed “deeply disturbed” about the fact that these hate and conspiracy campaigns are allowed to go on and on and on just because we children communicate and act on the science. “The bottom line: Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox News and The Herald Sun, is making money off of Andrew Bolt calling autistic people crazy,” he said.
