Being on the cover of Time Magazine doesn't mean what it once meant.

You mean like when they put Hitler on the cover?

I'm talking about the prestige of being on the cover of the magazine itself. It was never an award.

From naming Bruce Jenner as woman of the year in 2015 to naming Donald Trump person of the year in 2024, time magazine has been trolling us for years

Remember that Adolf Hitler was once Time's Man of the Year.

Does anyone actually read Time magazine anymore?

Don't they always name the president elect?

They name whomever they are told to name by whomever is currently in charge of the propaganda machine. So yes, typically they do.

Excellent point - they do indeed: https://time.com/5919492/time-person-of-the-year-president-elect-history/

Much more deserving of 'Person of the Year' is this voting machine.
