What idiocy is this - discussing the personal life of a presidential candidate! Ah, you see, Prokhorov is a bachelor.
And what?
Strange people: when a certain feudal leader appears with children who are given a fat business related to the work of daddy/mommy, people begin to be indignant: look, he’s warmed up his son! Absolutely fair, by the way: kinship should not be associated with this kind of “social elevators”. And dynasties are generally disgusting.
But then someone comes without a wife and without children. Therefore, if something is delayed, it will be only for oneself, and not for generations to come. And then the cry begins: how is it that he is not married?! What about the children?! He didn’t feel what it meant to be a father!..
But his children will end up on your neck, the “social elevators” will clog you!
Are we a tribe of savages who have this custom: the leader must fuck all the women of the tribe and become, in the most literal sense, the father of the people, and if he weakens and stops coping with this, we will kill him, eat him and install a younger and more tireless one. So, what?
This is correct and even fair among savages. There they have different conditions. But we are civilized people. Why do we need such an attitude? We hire a worker, not a leader. This means that we need to think about how he will cope with future work. Oh, children and family won’t distract him? This only makes us feel good.
You have to choose not with your heart, not with your liver or other intestines, but with your head.
