Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg on Friday labelled Donald Trump the "more dangerous" option in next week's US presidential election but slammed the incumbent administration for its support of Israel.
This a new conspiracy theory to me. Greta Thunberg’s parents, a moderately successful opera singer and non-Hollywood actor, are billionaires? I’d be surprised if they were worth a million, let alone a billion.
For fun, I went and investigated this, and learned a lot! Greta refuses to fly, citing the emissions caused by air travel, so she goes by boat instead. She crossed the Atlantic on the Malizia II, a racing yacht that sounds like a miserable time because it doesn’t have basic facilities like a toilet. She was taken across by Boris Herrmann of team Malizia, who (as you might guess) race the boat. Neither she nor her parents own it.
She’s also crossed on La Vagabonde, known for its Youtube channel where its owners, as far as I can tell, just kind of sail around. The owners don’t resemble her parents, either.
I also found a particularly bizzare claim including a notably doctored picture that she was “caught” on a yacht with Leonardo DiCaprio. Even that one doesn’t claim her family owns it.
I legitimately can’t even find a fake news site that makes the claim you’re making. Did you make it up whole cloth? To what end? What relevance would it even have to the topic? Is the idea that “big green energy” is coming for oil companies, and her family made their money off of green energy, and the entire purpose of her activism is to be part of big green energy’s master plan to take over big oil?

Average people can’t afford 60ft high-tech yachts.
That’s Billionaire territory, though I guess they could ‘only’ be worth hundreds of millions.
Even ‘millionaires’ can’t afford Yachts.
