Journalist Piers Morgan has some choice words for activists Greta Thunberg — and none of them were nice.

Morgan lambasted Thunberg with a post on Monday after the Swedish activist — as well as others bound for Gaza to deliver aid — was detained by Israeli Defense Forces. Thunberg said in a video she was “intercepted and kidnapped,” Mediaite reported.

“Oh shut up, @GretaThunberg – you attention-seeking narcissist. What an insult to the actual hostages in Gaza who really WERE kidnapped. This stupid stunt is all about your ego, and will make zero difference to the plight of innocent Palestinians caught up in this dreadful war,” Morgan wrote.

Thunberg as well as several other activists were detained when their boat was intercepted on its way to Gaza after leaving Sicily, as IJR reported on.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) showed the group footage of the “atrocities committed against women, the elderly, and children” that happened on Oct. 7.

Many on X disagreed with Morgan’s assessment of Thunberg.

Piers, It may seems like attention seeking, but we shouldn't miss the mark. Greta isn't seeking attention she's stepping into the void left by governments and institutions that have failed to act. She's risking everything to break the siege in Gaza and stop a genocide that the…

Your post is an insult to the 10,000 Palestinian hostages kidnapped by Israel and the 10s of thousands of children slaughtered by Israel.

At least she did something. What did you do (other than spending the first few months being a genocide apologist)?

They have literally been detained in international waters at gunpoint.

I mean, what’s wrong with you?

She has done more to expose the decades-long land, sea, and air blockade of Gaza than so-called "journalists" like you.

Well what word besides "kidnapped" would you prefer people use for unlawfully abducting someone and holding them against their will, Piers? Tell us which word doesn't throw you into a bizarre shrieking bitch fit and we'll use that instead.
