Disgusting, in my opinion.

Hitler was also person of the year in like 1938. Means nothing other than impact on society

[-] MusketeerX@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

Great, so we're living in the modern equivalent of 1938. Hopefully next year doesn't go on to be the equivalent of 1939 😬

I place no credibility in time's person of the year. Hitler was times person of the year once.

Hell, I was time magazine's person of the year in 2006! I worked at Wendys that year.....I didn't do nothin!

And Hitler kinda had an impact on the world. You trying to deny that?

Time's Person of the Year is about impact on society. It's not the Nobel Peace Prize.

[-] shrodes@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I mean, even Henry Kissinger got a Nobel Peace Prize

Nintendo got it wrong. 2014 wasn't year of Luigi. 2024 is!

[-] uebquauntbez@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Luigi's year was 2014. 2024 started his decade!

This sais more about Times than it does about Trump.

[-] UnpledgedCatnapTipper 25 points 10 months ago

Hitler was also person of the year. It's about the person's scale of impact, not anything to do with competence or morality.

Lol, yeah, the billionaire owned main stream media is completely benign an neutral in its coverage. 🙄

Honestly, what will it take for some of you to stop taking the world at the face value those in power are selling you as reality?

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 5 points 10 months ago

Damn, if you keep stuffing words into their mouth, it'll probably suffocate them.

[-] UnpledgedCatnapTipper 2 points 10 months ago

Thanks Chief!

[-] Philharmonic3@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I hope Trump ends up like Hitler did in the end. But sooner

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I mean......I don't think trump is going to shoot himself before 1945....

[-] 6gybf@sh.itjust.works 29 points 10 months ago

Probably worth pointing out Time is owned by a tech Billioniare

[-] kikutwo@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

So, grab em and cook the books but lie enough so enough morons vote for you equals man of the year?

[-] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Gross.

I love (hate actually) how his supporters always default into chanting, “USA… USA… USA…” while in reality they are for dividing the states, not uniting them.

It’s just a braindead idiocracy chant without meaning at this point.

who still cares?! we all know this is like a fifa championship? you just have to pay to get it

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 6 points 10 months ago

Man, I hope when he does an inevitably shit job and the economy tanks, that even his allies turn on him and he is hounded into an early grave

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Oldest president in history, assuming he serves all 4 years. What's your definition of "early"?

Now JFK? That guy knew how to hit the grave early!

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 1 points 10 months ago

Haha ok fair, I just meant I hope the stress gets to him and puts him down. Though he’s a narcissist so that how is unlikely

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Heart attacks are still on the table. I mean dude DOES work at mcdonalds.......unless the media LIED to me!
