It will drive Trump crazy that he didn’t get picked for anything!

I would add the mothers of Gaza as the heroes of the year.

Additional Villains - Billionaires and the 6 Supremely Corrupt Court "justices"

PJ Schuster's avatar

Omg YES!!! The 6 horrendously corrupt not-supreme court justices should definitely be awarded villains of the year. They have done extreme damage to our democracy & to citizen’s faith in getting justice.

I would add the healthcare workers and journalists of Gaza as persons of the year, in addition to student protesters.

Villain of the year should obviously have been Netanyahu, Zionism, and all of Israel. Elon at the very least hasn't committed a genocide. He's dopey but villainy is evil, and evil is Netanyahu et al

Add sadism.... I believe they actually enjoy their villiany... no words left... the animal kingdom has more honor then these homo sapiens

Nice selections. I especially appreciate that you have given recognition to student protestors, who have received almost no support from college administrators or politicians.

Worst US administration in modern history: Genocide Joe and Holocaust Harris (who actually outdo the previously worst US administration Bush-Cheney war criminal enterprise). 😔

You beat me to it. I was going to nominate him as most pathetic politician of the year and he had some solid competitors.

Amazing... love it

Diana's avatar

Was it really only this year...nay, only weeks ago...that I was laughing at every coconut tree meme I could find and feeling hopeful? Sigh.

The best/worst Kennedy awards are a scream. The person/politician/journalist of the year made me verklempt. Love the post overall.

Great list! Although, I hate to see Elon in the villain category all by himself! Can we had the entire incoming administration along with their sicks picks for cabinet & ambassadors? Early Happy New Year to all - buckle ip: it is going to be a very bumpy ride!

I agree there are so many more villains.

Medhi will have to devote an entire really long post in December 2025 to list the huge number of villains that will come with the trump admin.

I fear there is going to be great suffering in the coming year. Those of us who care about all of humanity must be prepared to protest & resist.

Nailed it!

What? No special recognition for Vivek??

You’re correct, he tries so hard to be relevant, but he just isn’t. The best thing he has done, is to show the trump & Elon idolaters, that those wealthy people don’t really give a damn about them or whether they get good jobs.
