I mean Confucius himself was pretty damn authoritarian and anti-freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purkake Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) More like a honeypot Also: When pressed by journalists on claims in a press release that the prize had been chosen by "democratic voting by Internet users," Tan admitted that no Internet voting had occurred, swiftly adding next year's prize would incorporate voting.

Rostere Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 What's funnier is that China has their own peace prize. Soviet Union had one too. 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 "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsingham Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 We should have an Obsidian Peace Prize and give it to Volo. "It wasn't lies.
