[Opinions] Re: Ivan vs. Boris
in reply to a message by Dododo
Connotations of either Ivan the Terrible or Boris Johnson? I choose Ivan.
I do genuinely prefer Ivan, it has an antique charm to it and is reminiscent of a few names in my family tree. It feels upright and proper but also like it could be an Everyman name.
Boris is clumsy, it has a blurting sort of sound.

What’s so bad about Boris Johnson?
No matter what prime minister you get, there will always be people moaning.

You mean apart from the racism, the homophobia, the classism, the fact he let 131,000 people die from coronavirus ("let the bodies pile high"), the fact he receives dodgy donations from multimillionaires to line his own pocket? Apart from all of that? How much time do you have?

The news only tell you what they want to tell you. They don’t tell you the whole thing or the truth. They make it the same for every prime minister, royal family or president. That’s why Meghan and Harry are hated, the news never told people about why they left the country. Don’t get brainwashed by what people say on social media or the news.
Also. Who said Boris was racist or homophobic? I never heard that news.

I don’t know how to explain to you that a prime minister choosing to let people die during a pandemic is bad.
I’m literally an academic, I’m not an idiot. I’ve probably been following politics longer than you’ve been able to talk. This is incredibly patronising.
Maybe if you paid attention?
