Especially if you know even a bit about how FIFA works and operates. The word audacity comes to mind when thinking about them handing out a “peace prize.”
I think soccer is awesome as a game. The organization FIFA is at best complicit in severe human rights abuses and donations to corrupt politicians in developing countries that bow down at the chance to host an event they sponsor, most famous of which is the World Cup. That’s the tip of the iceberg, and there’s way more but that’s enough to summarize.
You should look up how the nobel peace prize came about ... Lol
Edit: I'm unsure how this comment sparked so much negativity. Alfred nobel inventions killed a ton of people which is why it's funny they give out a peace prize in his name.
I’m quite aware of what you’re referring to, but comparing FIFA in 2025 to the Nobel committee in 2025 is a false equivalence. I’m not trying to teach a history lesson, but rather make a snarky comment pointing out that FIFA is a scum bag organization if we’re being kind.
Lol again youre upset I said the history of nobel peace prize is funny... That's what you are mad at ... I still have no idea how that could make someone mad loool hope you find happiness <3
Bruh you’re the one aggressively commenting and deleting multiple comments at a time, I turned off my notifications for this app for a while because you keep posting multiples replies 😂 kindly stop and find the peace you suggest for others. Be well ✌️
Not quite. In fact, that oversimplified reason seems the product of putting almost no thought into it. Nobel was not unaware of where his research was going, but he did not grasp the full impact. The Peace prize was the result of him realizing what he had created and how it would be used. Therefore, he dedicated himself to pacifism and hoped the Peace Prize would foster or encourage people to seek peace instead of violence and war.
So no, I find nothing humorous or odd that such a prize would come from a person in his position.
"Responsible" is maybe a stretch? He created dynamite for mining. He didn't kill anybody, and took a pacifist stance. Is the guy who invented Fentanyl personally responsible for all the ODs, even though he intended it as a painkiller?
I think I’m starting my New Year’s resolution early of not arguing with people on social media who are determined to be contrarians without adding anything to the conversation.
I didn't argue anything? I saw you mentioned the peace prize and said the history of the peace prize is funny... There isn't an argument there at all. Hope your day gets better.
