EDITED: Change link to proper article instead of a stupid video, and changed associated text to match new URL.

Disgusting, in my opinion.

    It’s well known that the Time uses the Man of the Year to designates a person of particular concern under the guise of flattery.

      Even beyond this, the person of the year isn’t an accolade or appraisal; it’s supposed to be the person who influenced the world by the largest margin in a given year. Trump’s a rapist piece of shit but there’s no doubting his name has probably been used more often than Smith in the last 12 months.
