he's a journalist right?

He's nobel prize winning economist! He praised Maduro and Venezuela's socialist policies. He also made a total fool out of himself again when he rubbished bitcoin.

You'd think someone like that would know better!😂

he's also a journalist. he's been writing columns in newspapers for a very long time.
this is not the first time he's shown himself to be a fool
it's amazing who they give the Nobel prize to these days.

A Peace Prize from an explosives manufacturer no reason to doubt their judgment.

actually it was a foundation set up by the inventor of an explosive intended to end all wars..
but I get your drift..

Known for inventing dynamite, Nobel also owned Bofors, which he had redirected from its previous role as primarily an iron and steel producer to a major manufacturer of cannon and other armaments. Nobel held 355 different patents, dynamite being the most famous. After reading a premature obituary which condemned him for profiting from the sales of arms, he bequeathed his fortune to institute the Nobel Prizes.

I suppose Arms Dealer would be even more accurate and it better illustrates my point.
