Climate activist Greta Thunberg has been slapped with a 48-hour ban from entering Venice, Italy after joining Extinction Rebellion protesters in dyeing the Grand Canal bright green, according to reports.

The Swedish activist, 22, was also fined $172 along with roughly 35 other demonstrators involved in the action, per The Telegraph.

Extinction Rebellion said the dye used was a fluorescent, non-toxic tracer commonly employed in environmental studies, such as tracking water flows or monitoring leaks. The group reportedly insisted the dye posed no ecological threat.

She took being green too far, :rimshot: . I doubt that the $172 fine will teach her anything, though.
If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.

You can't tell me this isn't the behavior of narcissists.

A 48-hour ban? That is cruel and unusual punishment for sure. ::)
