[Horace]

I am just waiting for America to finally get around to talking about our racism problem. Ax, please post more about your thoughts about racism, I think you could help.

Even before opening this thread I presumed it’ll be the frontline workers or Fauci.

@Axtremus said in TIME's Person of the Year (2020):

There is nothing that shaped the year 2020 more than SARS-CoV-2.

The virus didn't shape anything

Mr. Trump's heroic reaction to it shaped fake news

And the person of the year is the fake news publisher

[Loki]

The vaccine makers unfathomable warp speed. Duh.

Biden/Harris.

Ugh.

[Aqua Letifer]

To be honest with you, Diane, I'm surprised.

[jodi]

It should have been the health care frontline workers.

What a wimpy selection. Even BLM, and my disagreements with them, would’ve been more appropriate. But it should’ve been Covid related, like front line workers. 2020 will not be remembered in history books as the “Biden” year.

Ugh.

It’s called being at the scene of the accident.

The participation award makes it to Time.

[Loki]

Bizarre that time did not pick this.

[George K]

This ranks almost as ridiculous as Obama's Nobel Prize. Their big accomplishments are, the way I see it:

1. Oldest man to become president
2. First Indian, Jamacain, African-American, Woman of Color as VEEP
3. Their color is not orange
4. First person to drop out of the race before any primary as VEEP
5. They're not orange
6. They're not Trump

[Jolly]

TIME lost relevance years ago. Time for the trash heap of history.

[jon-nyc]

What Jolly said. We only pay attention to them one day a year.

[Doctor Phibes]

As with the Oscars, thousands of man-hours will be spent explaining why nobody cares about this award, by people who care so little that they spend thousands of hours doing so.

And they'll sell magazines.

Ben Shapiro tweets: "And yet the word "person" is singular. They just can't bear to leave Kamala off. Get a food taster, Joe Biden."
