John Oliver mentioned this in his show, Last Week Tonight a couple of months ago [0]. Boris is a snake with a smart team behind him. He wants to divide and he creates more tension and hatred instead of providing solutions. He follows the steps of the Oompa Loompa across the pond.

Edit: this post will be sooooo bad for the "karma points" but it's 100% accurate on BoJo the Bozo.

You deserve the downvotes given nonsense like "Oompa Loompa". Hackernews may have declined, but we haven't fallen far enough to ket that kind of bullshit slide.

If you see any other comment I make (and I don't expect anyone to spend 1 second on seeing my other opinions) I am always positive an open minded. Right now this snake is threatening my well being, my income, my life balance. I don't take that lightly. This snake is also being reckless with a neighboring country, Ireland, and with his dangerous and careless actions he is risking to throw them to another decade of Troubles (look it up). My negativity hurt your eyes. His actions may cause deaths. You're right. I'm to blame.

Edit: I actually upvoted your comment, you are right on calling out my comment :)

I saw that Last Week Tonight segment. I agree with your original post.

> My negativity hurt your eyes.

That's uncharitable. I believe your rhetoric hurts the culture and quality of discussion of hackernews.

I have seen quite a number of places degenerate into partisan (I don't strictly mean USA Dems vs Reps, but Culture War sides) namecalling, normally shortly before one side completely drives out the other and degenerates into a virtue-signalling circle jerk. While that may be hackernews' inevitable fate I want to put it off as long as possible.
