I guess i must be braindead then for voting brexit. I voted brexit for the same reasons i support ukraine now. I support democracy and their right to retain it along with their freedom to exist as a nation. The UKs MEPs elected by the people were not representing the people. Unelected EU commisioners were. Creating the policies and the "peoples representatives" were there just to rubberstamp them through. Thats not democracy. However if the brexit vote had gone the other way then i would have accepted it and respected the peoples decision. Unlike some. I also respect all EU europeans if they choose to live in a more federal society. After all, they were all subjegated 80 odd years ago. The uk never was so perhaps thats why we are more protective of our democracy than others.

@vencik_krpo Well said. Exactly my thoughts. Putins worldwide propaganda with RT etc has been using one of the wests freedoms against us for the last 20 odd years. Namely, freedom of expression. Promoting nationalism and denegrating democracy whenever it can. Unbelievably many are being duped by it. Even from the political left. UK ex labour leader corbyn has appeared on it. Salmond ex leader of the SNP was actually hosting a show on it the day of the invasion. Apparently he wants to go back to it after the war is over.

When youve had state funded putin tv propaganda broadcast into those ethnic russian border areas for the last 20 years since putin came to power. Then internal strife is bound to occur. Same as happened in ukraines border areas. Creating the ethnic and political division that has caused all the shit happening there now. Putins propaganda is his most potent weapon and still is imho.
