German authorities carried off Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg for protesting a coal mine; she was among a group of protesters who allegedly “stormed” toward the face of the Garzweiler open-cast mine, which officials described as “steep and extremely dangerous,” The Hill reports – or at least that’s what they want you to believe.

Despite several photo ops showing Greta “under arrest”, Citizen Journalists were quick to point out and capture video footage of the Swedish loudmouth staging the entire thing. The protest may have been real, but Greta and Co. weren’t really there to make a statement, they were there for attention at the command of their handlers.

But this isn’t what the fake media is reporting. Instead, they shared photos of what looks like Greta being dragged off by German law enforcement after “storming” toward an open-cast mine.

In the above picture, Greta Thunberg wasn’t even being arrested. She was being carried by the police to remove her from supposed “danger”. Authorities did report, however, that Greta was detained, but there are no reports of her arrest, despite media headlines.

“Greta Thunberg was part of a group of activists who rushed towards the ledge,” the Aachen police spokesperson told Reuters. “However, she was then stopped and carried by us with this group out of the immediate danger area to establish their identity.”

The Aachen police spokesperson noted that Thunberg, along with other activists detained by authorities, will be released later in the day.

“There is no reason to hold them for days,” the spokesperson told Reuters. “It might take hours or they will go immediately.”

Authorities removed Thunberg and other demonstrators from the village of Lützerath on Sunday after officials said they refused to comply with their efforts to clear the area.

Demonstrators have protested the pending demolition of the coal village for the extension of the Garzweiler coal mine.
