So the Russians abducted 19,546 Ukrainian children, but Melania wants props for getting 8 children released, and you had to rewrite the story because they weren't even Ukrainian?

This has been going on for 25 years, and many libraries in the US have gotten involved. Not mine though, sadly. humanlibrary.org/the-human-li...

With this choice the Nobel Committee came as close as they could to awarding it to Trump without actually giving it to him.

Disastrous choice! She is absolutely a supporter of Trump and explicitly a supporter of his murderous attacks on Ven. fishermen. The Nobel Comm. has shown that it's under the control of Trumpers and the Oil Industry. This prize will be used to further support his war against Venez.

She's a Zionist, CIA plant who LOVES Trump & has repeatedly asked him & Netanyahu to bomb Venezuela.

It's Nobel's way of pacifying Trump.

She moderated her tone in the lead-up to July 28, but Machado is now engaging with the MAGA camp. How did she get here after 25 years?

look just because Trump lost doesnt mean we need to celebrate a trump supporter winning the prize.

Happy Nobel Peace Prize day to all who celebrate! 🕊️

In a brilliant and well deserved move, an (1) antifa (2) Latina (3) woman, María Corina Machado, wins for her work promoting democratic rights in Venezuela.

my father was a civil engineer for the US Army Corps of Engineers. I was taught the importance of infrastructure so my belief system really takes all stake holders into account and plans for the long term, not the short term. And they call that communism I guess.

i think the worst part of current capitalism is the quarterly profits. it's the most short sided way of doing things and leads to hurting capitalism. which i'd be fine with but it also hurts the little guy even more. the constant growth mentality with no maintenance cant last.

and learn from history so you don't fucking repeat it again and again and again. but no, we're going to repeat the fascist 30s anyway.

that's why i work in education, i think the best thing we can do is teach people not to be selfish and that other people and belief systems are valid and exist.

this is why i dont have faith in institutionalized socialism either. I don't really have an answer for solving humanity's selfishness.

Machado issues her first statement since being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and makes a thinly-veiled appeal to Trump for US intervention in Venezuela:

This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom.
We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy.
I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!

the stupid thing is that a US president has a huge edge for getting the prize if they actually tried to earn it instead of being a warmongering asshole. Biden didn't try to earn it either.

Days of Future Passed for me, is right up there with Pet Sounds, Rubber Soul, and Revolver. Just amazing stuff from start to finish, and the first true concept album.
