121-year-old photo sparks Greta Thunberg conspiracy theory: ‘She’s here to save us’

 A Greta Thunberg lookalike in a 121-year-old photo has sparked a new conspiracy theory about the environmentalist being a time traveler.

 People on Twitter have started to claim that one of the people in the photo from 1898 that shows three children from the Yukon Territory in Canada has a face that’s so identical to Thunberg’s that it couldn’t possibly be anybody else. The girl said to be Thunberg also has the same braided hairstyle that the Swedish teen is known for. And although the timeline certainly doesn’t add up, many are saying that it’s proof that Thunberg is from a different time.

The Twitterati have taken to this like, well, a Starbucks latte. Go here https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/121-year-old-photo-sparks-greta-thunberg-conspiracy-theory-211635110.html for all the Tweets and other foolishness.

1 Scoldilocks a time traveler? If she appears in a photo from the Yukon "way back when" it means she has no foreknowlege. She would have to be a time traveler from the future. So why go back to the Yukon in 1898?

Did she miss her stop?  If so, how bright is she?

I know; we can tell a Scandinavian girl by her hair style!  It MUST be her!

I have been giggling at the stupidity here all morning, Dana!

2 It just shows how illogical zealots can be.
Don't we often see Native American women wearing braids. So isn't this Cultural Appropriation? Howcum nobody's howling about that?

3 Indeed.  I'm just glad nobody's given this girl a tomahawk; she'd scalp people with it, probably!
