Category:Dumb Fuck of the Year

Dumbfuck of the Year (DfotY) is an annual contest run by Reds Rhetoric for the dumbest person on G+. A list of people is nominated by Red, and voting runs for the month of December during the previous year, with the winners being announced in early January.

Nominees are required to meet four criteria:

1. Have demonstrated stupendous and unwavering idiocy, despite, and in spite of any evidence that would contradict whatever "science" they find indisputably true.
2. Are not the victim of a mental disorder. (Rob Beasley was excluded from the 2016 contest on these grounds.)
3. Have had at least one one-on-one conversation with Red in a live google hangout. (As of 2017, this rule has changed so that, instead of having to talk to Redline, instead, it is only required "that you speak to at least one of the 10 people [on a panel nominated by Red] who will be nominating people for the award...")
4. Are not already a recipient of the award. (We can't have G Man winning every year, now.)
