Greta Thunberg has been caught red-handed in her own web of lies. She made a huge mistake when she tried to make it seem like her first-class ride on a train was overcrowded and she didn’t have anywhere to sit. She then tweeted a deceitful photo of herself sitting in a huge pile of luggage.

Deutsche Bahn, the German railroad company, addressed Thunberg’s tweet, apologizing for any inconvenience the girl may have experienced and said they were working on improving the trains, but then they suddenly shifted gears. They deleted their initial tweet and criticized Greta for failing to acknowledge the lengths of which onboard staff apparently went through to lead her to a seat in first class.
According to The Guardian,
Greta travelled by train from the COP25 UN climate conference in Madrid via a climate protest in Turin, Italy, on Friday. She is due home in Stockholm to celebrate Christmas with her family after a year travelling the world by rail, sea and road to highlight the threat of global heating.
Deutsche Bahn (DB) was quick to respond to Greta’s tweet, apologising to the 16-year-old schoolgirl for the inconvenience and saying it was working on improving its trains.
