The Nobel prize is worthless, full stop.

I wouldn't say worthless as they do award important people doing work for science. The peace prize in particular can be ironic as many laureates did very questionable things after the award, like Obama got a peace prize but then kept heavy military activity on foreign countries

It's a bullshit prize, always has been. Boomer men care about prizes. Give Pedonald his ribbons and medals, just dont exceed the $5 budget from Dollar General.
