One thing TPTB like to endorse (besides fame, money, “success”, etc. ) on their minions is the trinkets and baubles commonly referred to as Medals and Honours. Recently, in Australia, two of the most malicious and craven politicians - namely Daniel Andrews (ex Premier of Victoria) and Mark McGowan (ex Premier of Western Australia) have each received the Companion of the Order of Australia. This is the highest award bestowed by the King (who merely endorses what is put before him) to a civilian in Australia. Two bully-boy, despicable individuals strutting around now with their patently undeserved “awards”.
How about warmonger Winston Spencer Churchill (you know - Spencer as in Diana) he won more awards and medals than you can point a stick at for his role in the destruction of Europe and the British Empire. He even won the Nobel prize for Literature for his scribblings and was elected to the Royal Academy for his daubing away with a paintbrush. (compared to that Austrian “failed artist” 😳) So “Sir” Winston Churchill” (Knight Commander of the Order of the Garter) even won the Charlemagne Prize (sometimes called the Kalergi Prize) in 1955.
That Austrian “failed artist” actually won real medals (for bravery in combat)
Donald Trump has a few too :
Humanitarian Award
Tree of Life Award
Algemeiner Award
Friends of Zion Award
A couple of place names too ; Trump Heights and Trump Square - all very interesting
Of course Hollywood love giving themselves awards for toeing the line
Question : Who needs awards ?
Answer : Minions of TPTB
Some of us outgrow getting a gold star on our forehead after kindergarten... some of us don't.
i knew something was terribly wrong about 'awards' from a very young age but none drove home my point of view more than learning about the Noble Peace Prize and some of the truly despicable names given that award;
there must be some kind of hidden etymology of the words Noble and Peace that in fact read 'Heartless Warmonger' or the like.
