Evil fucker
From Pope to Obama. She is every powerful figure’s darling.
She also publicly thanked the founders of the Atlas network, a US right wing think tank and likely CIA front whose purpose is to funnel money to South Korean defectors, venezuelan opposition figures like herself, the Ukrainian military, the anti-communist Cuban opposition, the anti-lula brazilian opposition, and probably a lot more ultra-right groups.
peace price was invented to whitewash war profiteering. it just going back to it’s roots
lol, what a fucking ghoul.
The “Peace Prize” winner has been trying to violently overthrow the Venezuelan government since the Bush Era failed coup in 2002.

Yes you said that already
Yes.

The winner of the Dynamite “Peace” Prize likes war, what a surprise.
So, her award is as valid as Obama’s.
She’s got a lot of dead bodies to stack up before she reaches the Obama tier. But if the confrontation along Venezuela’s cost goes hot, she could get there quick.
I literally doubled over laughing when they gave Machado the Peace Prize. What a fucking joke.
They gave Kissinger a peace prize so it was already a joke tbh. I would take it as a slight to receive one.
Kissinger won in '73, right after the bombing of Cambodia. Obama in '09 as he was gassing up the jets to level Libya and butcher Afghans for another eight years. Yasser Arafat, Shimon Peres and Yitzakh Rabin - three avowed terrorists - all got the prize in 1994 shortly before they fell back into their low-grade civil war. Kofi Annan and the UN won in 2001, seven years into running the phenomenally corrupt “Oil for Food” program used to loot Iraq.
It’s a bad award for bad people.
Obama got the peace prize for literally not being W. Bush. No other reason.
Obama fans don’t like hearing about how bad he was.
Agreed, the Obama administration was rotten, but boy, was he charismatic. My dislike of him has been one point of contention between my standard-issue US liberal neighbor while helping bridge the gap with my recovering MAGA other neighbor.
He was probably the best president we’ve had since Carter; which is just sad.
War criminals after warcriminals. So actually “The least bad”.
Fuck, that IS depressing. Every four years we just hope for someone less awful than the last guy.
Clinton was good president for the US. No wars, debt paid down, No catastrophies, middle and lower class weren’t getting trampled.
glass-steagull was overturned during his administration and he gutted welfare.
Motherfuckers will goldfish memories forgot about Yugoslavia.

He and Hilary literally used slave labor
Libya was a NATO led venture. That can’t be pinned on solely Obama.
Oh sure. Hillary and Sarkozy suckered him into it. But that’s half the problem with Obama. Whether its Larry Summers or Joe Biden or Rick Warren or Elon Musk, there’s always some rich white asshole by his side, dangling a million dollar speaking tour over his head and leading him like a rented mule.
It can be on hrc.
I’m glad Ben Norton included the bit about Machado’s superrich cousin going to Miami on private jet shopping trips & making fun of how poor Americans were, it was really illustrative of what the comprador elite are like since they’re the result of much sharper inequality. Mostly just really funny though
In a few more months, she’ll be taking the title of President off Juan Guaidó.
Right wing “patriots” selling their country out to foreign interests, a tale as old as time.
I feel like the CIA forced her getting the peace prize for the upcoming war, but she’s really fucking bad at manufacturing consent.
The elites can’t see that because she says everything they want but I think this kinda shit doesn’t go well with literally everyone else
Right wing white oppo leader talking about selling out your country to imperialists IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE is peak tone deafness
God bless Maduro honestly I would throw this hag in the pit
Ah, so it’s wałęsa type of nobel.
I feel like at least half of the peace prizes have been given to pro-western / color revolution “dissidents” since the 60s
And the other half to the war mongers like Henry Kissinger and Obama.
Also, wasn’t the Nobel Prize kind of just a western PR stunt?
The science ones are generally legitimate. The literature and peace prizes have been wholly co-opted by western interests. The economics prize isn’t even a real Nobel, it’s just a prize sponsored by the Swedish central bank and administered by the Nobel Institute, and it’s a pure PR tool for legitimizing neoliberalism.
The science Nobel prizes are outrageously misogynist. In the last few years, they are finally giving it to actual female scientist because they can no longer suppress women researchers without facing a single criticism, unlike the past. Cecilia Payne, Chien-Shiung Wu, Vera Rubin got treated like shit.
By “generally legitimate” I just mean that they’re awarded to scientists for real things, as opposed to, like, giving the medical prize to RFK Jr. It’s still a shit institution.
Right and even the guy it’s named after tho. Kind of a piece of shit.
Most things are named after pieces of shit. Being a piece of shit is the number one way to get something named after you. That’s not to say the Nobels aren’t a sham, but conceptually there are more offensive things than a prize that’s supposed to go to someone who contributes to humanity. Impressive that the system so effectively coopted them to do more shitty things. Important lesson there.
The peace prize yes. They’ve made really questionable choices from Kissinger to Obama (Who really did win because Not Bush). No one should take it seriously.
At least Wałęsa didn’t want his nation to die under tyranny.
That’s a very risky statement. wałęsa is the personification of the worst stereotypes of lumpenproletariat, he
wouldDID sold entire nation under the tyranny of the exact same capitalism she is doing. If that would entail violent forever war at the hand of USA, why not, in a blink.
Arming the people is the right response, I hope it is enough.
To fight against a potential US invasion, right?
