This whole ****ing thread is about seeing the world in black and white. It's hilarious to see you throwing out all context and distorting the nature of the opposition in Ukraine to set up your stupid "When did you stop beating your wife?" moral posturing and then claiming you don't view the world in black and white
Using your own argument you are on the side of dictators shooting protestors through the neck. You are on the side of military agressors.
You have such a dumb way of arguing. Do you know
how someone gets Nominated for a Noble? It's not by the Noble Committee. Fact.
Some member of the Russian government who wanted to kiss Putin's ass could have nominated him or any history professor. Over 270 people are nominated for the Peace Prize this year. Troll or vanity nominations have been a fact for years, it makes for a good press release. The Noble Committee then vets this big list to come up with the eligible nominees.
Put this way. Putin is not getting on the red carpet yet. Somebody is just running a "For Your Consideration" Oscar campaign. It didn't work for this documentary.
