I never heard of Peter Handtke before the Swedish Academy (what´s left of it) decided to award him the Nobel literature prize, but apparently the man is universally regarded as an apologist for genocide and other war crimes during the Bosnian war, and a hero of the "Alt Right" to boot.
Good.
This way, the Swedish Academy will *completely* destroy its reputation. First the rape scandals around Whatever His Name Was and now this.
Excellent, my young apprentice, excellent!
I know that the Peace Prize has nothing to do with the poor Academy, but it is richly ironic (and somewhat iconic) that Handtke gets a Nobel medal while Greta Thunberg didn´t.
Where da pop corn at?
