After calling singer Rihanna a 'fool' Kangana calls Greta Thunberg a 'spoilt brat' and uneducated for supporting farmers

After Rihanna, Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg took to Twitter to share a news story about the internet shutdowns in Delhi. “We stand in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India,” the teen activist tweeted. Now actor, Kangana Ranaut has also dismissed Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, calling her a 'spoilt brat'. Kangana on Wednesday shared a news report about a 105-year-old organic farmer, and also slammed the Swedish teen, who was declared Time's Person of the Year in 2019, and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Kangana wrote, "No fancy activists will talk about genuine environmentalist our own grandma ... but they will definitely promote dumb and a spoilt brat ⁦@GretaThunberg⁩ who is being used by entire left lobby and in return she gets to skip her education and school. "The 'spoilt brat' description is borrowed. 

Thunberg was previously described as such by British presenter Jeremy Clarkson. More famously, she was told to 'chill' by former US president Donald Trump. In a tweet on Tuesday, she wrote, "We stand in solidarity with the #FarmersProtest in India." Her tweet came after Rihanna posted a news story about the protests, and wrote, "Why aren’t we talking about this?!"In response, Kangana had tweeted, "No one is talking about it because they are not farmers they are terrorists who are trying to divide India, so that China can take over our vulnerable broken nation and make it a Chinese colony much like USA... Sit down you fool, we are not selling our nation like you dummies." 

Several other celebrities have also lent their voices to the ongoing protests and condemned the crackdown on farmers in the National Capital. Among them was US Vice President Kamala Harris’ niece, Meena Harris, who tweeted: “We ALL should be outraged by India’s internet shutdowns and paramilitary violence against farmer protesters.” Several politicians in the US and the UK have also addressed the issue on social media. US House Representative Jim Costa called the unrest “troubling”, and added that the situation is being closely monitored. Meanwhile, UK MP Claudia Web also expressed her concern. Last week, the Union Home Ministry suspended internet connectivity at three main protest sites at the capital’s borders — Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur — creating several hurdles for protesting farmers.
