A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Look at his smile, he actually thinks he won something. what a pathetic little bitch.
He's the kind of kid that they invented participation trophies for, just so he wouldn't throw a tantrum at the awards ceremony, and scream "CHEATER!" at everybody, when everybody knows he was ALWAYS the cheater.
It probably has a ring camera in it or a literal drone flying near it and the current admin is too stupid to think to do a bug check. Meanwhile all those worst people you’ve played COD with over the years have graduated to murdering actual people and the one really shitty friend from high school (if you’re still in touch) is likely singing their praises on social.
But like, hey it’s important to consider the feelings of someone who is sad about eating animals but still eats fish because they aren’t animals right?
That’s a striking moment whatever people think of Trump, handing over a Nobel award at the White House is heavy with symbolism. It feels like one of those gestures meant to send a message more than make headlines.
I get that she probably realizes he's a simpleton and you can get a simpleton to do what you want if you give them gifts.
But still. Have some self respect.
From my talking with someone who grew up under a nation with a corrupt regime, self respect is a luxury that people under such a regime cannot afford when dealing with the government.
Small, petty, corrupt government personnel are a way of life and people just accept this sort of stuff as mundane fact of life.
So such folks are uniquely emotionally prepared for this sort of interaction.
All Nobel prizes should just sell them on Ebay to show how little value it has.
She also loves Israel, go figure.
Not sure what this nobel peace prize is supposed to mean at this point.
Another Dunning-Krugerrand for the pile
What a cheap whore
"You can grab them by the peace prize... They let you do anything"
Low hanging griftard...
Literally this
this is so embarrassing for everyone involved, yikes.
Even for the Nobel Price Committee to some degree. I will be interested in what their reaction will be.
They already said that the price is given in the moment and cant be regifted or removed because later acts.
So in a way Trump is just as much nobel price winner as much as my cousing is Olympic ski jumping gold metalist. He bought the metal from auction, but it does not mean he earned it.
Even the Nobel Prize committee? You mean the ones who ~~gave~~ sold it to her in the first place?
I gotta say, solid contender for most pathetic image of 2026.
and all that guady gold decorations.
Washington's up there like, "Told you fuckers political parties were a problem!"
It’s beyond parody, it’s apocalyptically stupid, it can’t be ridiculed because it’s self-ridiculing in a way that’s never been done before. Merely looking at this image makes you dumber. It’s a vortex, a black hole of stupidity and hubris.
Your words are like poetry.
It would be funny if she got a chocolate medal to gift him. Like this if you have not seen those medals with chocolate inside.
This will age as well as this picture:

And it's just mid January...
It STILL hasn't been a year since that fetid piece of pig shit assumed office!
Yeah, I've had to remind my friends since roughly late November of this whenever they would gasp and say a variation of, "An there is still three more years of this left".
Yeah, it feels very disorienting honestly, like we just lived through a year in 2 weeks, heh.
Before: bribes done in secret, big scandal if journalists found out
Now: bribes are given in front of hundreds of journalists and photographers and the receiver is smiling like a toddler getting a box of Lego Duplo
fuck I swear this is pathetic enough to cause an integer overflow or something
So pathetic for the both of them
The committee should re-award it given that the recipient doesn't value it.
Given that the Nobel Prize is basically the moral equivalent of a cracker jack prize at this point, and given that it's guaranteed to make the Toddler in Chief choke on a McDonald's cheeseburger, they should give it to Obama. I mean, what the fuck - after giving Kissinger one, it's not like the committee assigning them can be said to stand for anything approaching morality. Might as well do it for the memes.
What a dumb bitch. I think after this the Nobel committee should retrospectively take it away from her, so that orange fuck can't claim that he got it.
She got the Nobel Peace prize. Do you know who else got the Peace prize?
Henry Kissinger.
That’s like buying your boss a “best boss” mug to try to get a raise. It means nothing and your boss is an idiot.
More like giving your boss your own "best boss" mug.
FIFA peace prize in shambles…
