@marcocanton9495 Lol sure. If you listen only to MSM. Big lol. And it isn’t about what polls were telling you in the lead up to the election. The conversation was happening for years, it picked up traction, the movement formed, and it was an overt possibility. Whether you wanted it or expected it doesn’t matter anyway. If the EU was the priority then they should have voted as such in the face of the real possibility that the UK was bailing. I am being reasonable. Brexit didn’t fall out if the sky in 2015. Pro EU Scots gambled and their gamble didn’t pay off. Let them leave the UK, go their own way, and join the EU as their own entity. England can go have a cry about it if they don’t like it. Time for us to stop clinging to these fractured non-nations because ‘stability’. It’s only a reasonable argument in divorce because the couple has presumably stopped having kids. With a country, you don’t stop having kids, so all you are doing by not tearing off the bandaid is condemning future generations to an increasingly dysfunctional system and an increasingly difficult break up.

@EdgelordOfEdginess Brexit was a very likely near term possibility in 2014 when Scotland voted. If you wanted to remain in the EU but voted to remain in the UK then you weren’t paying attention. I even remember standing on the shop floor listening to CBC radio in Canada to a program on this very thing...

Knowing full well a near future ‘Brexit’ was likely

Funny how many ppl are assuming this is inherently a bad thing, like the ppl who voted Brexit are universally looking at this and going ‘Oh No! What have we done!?’. Most Brexit supporters probably look at this and say/think something like ‘fair is fair. They want a home they control too. So be it. We’ll try to work together where we can and do our own thing where we can’t.’ The horror...

@gregmiller4387 You could be very right. Are you over there by chance? I’m in Canada.

@marcocanton9495 Brexit was waiting in the wings since long before 2014, and the Scots knew it was a possibility when they cast their votes. If their priority was the EU then they should have hedged for it.

@marcocanton9495 Lol. “Be reasonable” Marco. You can’t trust what you hear from the conventional sources anymore. If my use of the term MSM offends you so then boo hoo. In the end it doesn’t matter if it was MSM/legacy media, alt media, or your grandma. Fact is, your sources were wrong and you were wrong in your expectations. It happens. You were misled. Learn from it instead of trying to convince ppl that some travesty has occurred because your bubble’s predictions didn’t materialize.

@marcocanton9495 “What you read from me is logic and the result of both personal experience and critical thinking.” Says/believes everybody about their own position on most any matter... In my “personal experience” the first person to evoke their superior reasoning/logic and critical thinking skills is, like they who evoke Hitler, the one losing the argument. And you have to take that at least half seriously because it comes from my “personal experience”.

@marcocanton9495 That’s a long response for somebody who claims to be unable to understand or interpret my remarks.

@marcocanton9495 I didn’t read it actually. Why would I if you’re gonna pretend to lack the reading comprehension skills to understand my remarks? That’s just futile. No convo to be had there.
