so much Brexit shit

As someone living in Europe, benefiting from the many benefits of the UK's membership of the EU, I can't help but look at the UK with my mouth gaping open at the absurdity of it all.

Its not just the harm it will do me personally, and many of those I care about,  its the absolute utter total levels of misinformation, misunderstanding and lies that are spouted, not just by everyday people but by people who really are educated well enough to know that they are spouting actual, provable easy to verify lies.

For 3 years now this madness has been getting worse and worse and worse, as the UK lathers itself into a frenzy just before it pulls the trigger to shoot itself without ever really understanding why its doing it, only that it needs to do it...because.

The EU is not evil, the EU is not trying to take away anyones freedom (quite the opposite in fact), the EU is not bleeding us dry (quite the opposite again), the EU is.....oh man I could list pages and pages...but it won't make any difference, not a jot.

Becuase people just stopped listening..they've entrench themselves and treat anything that might change thier view as something to be resisted...even if the only resisitance they have is the afore mentioned lies, or nanananana..not listening!!! neh.


I've been getting triggerd very badly on this on FB and other social media..trying to repond, politely as far as I can, to give genuine responses, and let the facts shine, but nope, 2 mins later, its the same lie spread and repeated...and ultimatly given form as a new truth. The stress levels that gives me are off the scale and I need to let go. I have to take a leaf from some of my British friends here, we're out of it...its not our problem..

I'm done with it....totally, the UK can go shoot itself in the head and spend the next 50 years in a financial and political wilderness, its become an absolute farce.

I'm currently broke, but as soon as my finances recover in the summer, I'm triggering my own article 50 and starting the process to become a dutch citizen. I just can't feel any reason to stay British as long as this madness continues.

Ahthankyew
