This means absolutely nothing coming from FIFA.

FIFA is literally one of the most corrupt non-government entities on this entire planet.

This is just FIFA making shit up to stroke the ego of a malignant narcissist.

You know very well Trump don’t care about that

It would be supremely funny if they didn't give it to him

[–] hypeerror@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago

It would be fucking hilarious if they gave it to Obama or Biden.

We're living in a horrible comedy

[–] orclev@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

They should call it the FIFA corruption prize, it would be a far more accurate name and actually match what FIFA is all about.

I bet the brown nose on South Park becomes contagious.

Just as soon as the checks clear

FIFA gives out a peace prize?

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They do, now. Literally, this is the first one. I’m sure they did it to kiss Trump’s ass.

It’s pathetic.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I hope a bunch of other companies come out and start doing peace prizes for trump too. Flood the market

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago

Or, give them to people Trump envies. And make a bigger deal of it. Billboards in DC and Times Square, streaming ceremonies with fireworks and big-name bands and actors.

Make a mockery of it.

Cards Against Humanity could have one. The Daily Show. Jimmy Kimmel. They could all give one to each other.

Flood the news cycle but with peace prizes for other people around the same time as FIFA’s.

With a name like that he better watch out around Trump.
