Brexit

Woke up to the news, still kind of reeling.

To my British friends: My condolences. I'm sorry that so many of your fellow citizens voted with the fascists and gave into terrorism.

At least the Pigfucker's gone, though I guess he was going to go anyway and it's a countdown to Führer Farange or Boris as PM now. Just, damn.

The demographic breakdown is damning and sad.

I get it now. Just insert 'immigrants out' and the world's your oyster. I am aware there are legislative, economic and political motives but I think the broade appeal was less subtle and complex.

Yeah. I'm sure there were people who had other reasons for voting Leave but they weren't the majority.

I'm really pissy about the Lexit types because they live in a fantasy world. So did I, for awhile. I marched in so many anti-globalization actions but we never once thought that if the neoliberal order started to fall, we wouldn't be the ones who came out on top.
