Hahahaha yeah, it's probably actually a Tyranny Prize or something. I mean Confucius himself was pretty damn authoritarian and anti-freedom.

Everyone seems to have a Peace Prize nowadays.

 

Funny that the Reagan peace prize was awarded to Thatcher, Colin Powell, and George H.W. Bush... Also, I saw that Brezhnev had been awarded the Lenin peace prize

We should have an Obsidian Peace Prize and give it to Volo.
