    They’re almost all people who have amounted to nothing in their own personal lives. They see someone much younger than them having a much more profound and positive impact on the world and it makes them upset.

    That or they have a vested interest in oil companies, shipping companies, coal, etc.

      I havn’t amounted to anything either and I’m envious of her but I don’t attack her. At worst I’d wish she’d be more radical but I’m still glad someone’s doing something. There has to be more going on

        I don’t believe you that you haven’t amounted to anything. You’re obviously an intelligent person and even that alone takes time and effort.
