IF the US tells the Nobel Committee that this CEO of a tiny internet news outfit that violated her country's laws is more deserving of its Peace Prize than Julian Assange who told the world of the US' war crimes, than Greta Thurnberg who's woken up the world to the reality of climate change, than a collective of 'scientists' who have saved the world from a horrible pandemic, then she gets the prize.

After all, the US is still the global hegemon with the mightiest propaganda apparatus. When it tells the world what it wants to believe, then that is what the world — at least most of it — believes.
