Am I just making a stupid assumption or do I feel like when Anglicizing a Jamaican they could pick a fucking better name than "Robert Robertson" ?

Maybe just don't do it at all

This is an interesting story, but correct me if I’m wrong, isn’t Robertson that guy who was made a Communist Party Member against his will and ended up not being allowed to emigrate back to the US despite wanting to?
