Remainer 'moral superiority'

[coffeeaddict]

I voted Remain but I dithered and I can see both sides of the argument. (Am I the only one?! Everyone else seems to be so polarised.)

What gets me, especially when I've read discussions on here, is all the very vociferous Remainers who talk as though they have a claim to the moral high ground.

I find the accusation that Brexiteers are 'racist' particularly weird. Europe is mostly white like us. How does race play a card? If anything, letting our borders open to all and every European (majority white) means necessarily less room for other people from different countries and therefore different races.

In fact, what is the EU? A band of rich, predominantly white countries banding together to be more powerful. Fine, this might be best for our trade and prosperity. It might be pragmatic. We might like feeling we could go and live in Spain one day. But that's not the same as being morally 'better'.

But a lot of Remainers behave as though they are inherently 'virtuous' and Brexit is inherently 'evil.'

I don't get it.

Ghost it’s not stupidity, it’s desperation.

"the economy will improve and inflation won’t be as drastic. "

Repeating it doesn't make it true.

Explain why inflation will not be as drastic. Come on use some proper economics.

Well their cry for help won’t be answered.

I’ve no idea. I still hope we can arrange a softer Brexit

Ghost

Neither will yours.

And everything is hunky dory in the United Kingdom is it Camel ?

I’ve been the one saying it’s really not hunky dory.

I think you’ve got the wrong poster.

You don’t have to give me links to read about things in the news. I do actually watch the news so will already know what you’re talking about

Camel, I’m apparently part of the metropolitan elite so will be fine

Mother

That’s utterly shit.

That’s what we should be focusing on instead of shouting racism and ‘whose to blame’

Ghost

Nah, the suits are fucked

Yeah I’m sure Rees mogg and Farage are having sleepless nights

I voted leave. It's not about race it's about space.

Tories will always be tories.

I mean the previously untouchable financial yuppies from the city of London.

The suits are not fucked.

In fact London and the South East come off least worse with only a 1% lower level of growth than they would have had.

Its the working class who are fucked, those in agriculture, fishing and everything else you appear to hold dear.

Camel, If we stop importing products and actually keep our spending local, the economy will improve and inflation won’t be as drastic.

Sadly, that isn't how economics works.

Camel claims to know about economics but with every single post shows a massive ignorance,.

Tis fucking funny really.

All of her posts are hyperbolic nonsense stuffed with appeals to emotion and authority.

She has no idea what she is talking about.

Parts of London financial sector have already moved out the U.K. who needs the tax receipts anyway?

Middle-management jobs are being list at an alarming rate in the City. Banks are closing branches all over the country. Job losses are down to investors and share-holders demanding more and more profit. They don’t care about the people they employ, just profit.

Sorry lost

Yes, the suits with the transferable skills, international jobs market and savings cushion are the ones who are fucked.

Sure

Like everything else, the poorest will get hit hardest. Quite how you haven't figured that out yet, I don't know.
