Brazil's right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro called Swedish climate change campaigner Greta Thunberg a"brat" on Tuesday after she criticized mounting violence against indigenous people in which two Amazon tribesmen were shot dead three days ago."Greta said the Indians died because they were defending the Amazon . How can the media give space to a brat like that," Mr Bolsonaro told reporters, using the Portuguese word"pirralha.
Ms Thunberg turned a spotlight on the struggles of the world's indigenous peoples to protect the environment on Monday at the United Nations climate change summit in Madrid.Two Indigenous men of the Guajajara tribe in eastern Amazon were shot dead on Saturday in a drive-by shooting not far from where a prominent tribesman who defended the Amazon rainforest was also killed last month.
LOOK HOW MS THUNBERG RESPONDED!!! What is this? Buzzfeed or SBS? Why are tax dollars funding clickbait? If you think it genuinely newsworthy, why not just tell us in the tweet summary?
Violent protest!
Brat!
A shame she doesn’t worry about the indigenous of her own country, but that wouldn’t fit in the political view of her supporters
Well maybe she should stay out of other country's affairs period and not tell them what to do and how to think. Greta isn't the boss of everyone on this planet, not even me.
I've been thinking same thing Mr. President.
Wow. Changed her Twitter profile. That's REAL action right there. Thought of that all by herself - and we can tell.
Ballsacnaro is a complete chopstick who doesnt belong in power
This from a mongrel Brazilian who is overseeing the death of the Amazon.
He's right!
It’s always amusing when grown men have to bully a child.
Good. She's a menace to V8 ownership.
More power to Greta .
Another old man proving how insecure he is feeling. Burning and razing his country to the ground was not enough to prove his masculinity, he now has to attack a young girl. It must make him feel like a real man...something he will never be!
Well media you made FrankenGreta, so no good complaining now auspol
jairbolsonaro I think GretaThunberg is absolutely right about climate change and you’re just another corrupt bureaucrat out to look after his own bank balance! The term ‘brat’ won’t work with me and if you want to compare who’s done more for the world let’s get debating!
Why does the media continuously focus on the Negative reactions of morons towards Greta when they could be enforcing the incredible action that she is doing? Come on Media. Get it together! Focus on Greta's amazing work, her drive, the people who are inspired by her & her action!

“Far right”? 😂 the far left SBS continues to look like clowns 🤡
Ms Thunberg? You leftist journalists are surpassing levels of pathetic not yet known to man.
The most respected ' Brat' in the world. At least what she says is listened to. Bolsonaro, a THUG.....
From the man that allowed vast portions of the Amazon burn... She may be a puppet but so are the idiots on social media who don't see the irony, of this political hypocrite..
Not a brat , just a socialist puppet .
100 % True.
