There’s no going back from this comment: he’s Mr. Dong forever now.

It’s not even the goofiest name a communist leader has had. Stalin quite literally changed his birth name to, “Joe Steel”, like he’s some sort of cosplaying superhero.

If we can have a Joe Steel, then we can absolutely have a Mr. Dong.
