To point out that not ALL people who voted leave are racist

I'd describe myself as extreme left. I voted leave because the EU's undemocratic. Today I wake up to ALL of my Facebook posting statuses about how they feel sick etc. all my friends are liberal, some of them would hate me if they knew. But if I was asked outright I'd probably be honest. I've made new friends recently who would definitely never speak to me again if they knew though. I feel like everyone who voted leave has been branded a racist. I feel uncomfortable that probably lots of them are sad I feel very uneasy being lumped in with them and might come to regret my decision

Posted this elsewhere but in need of some hand holding I think! Or maybe someone who feels the same way? Anyone?

I support you fully and have had the racist label too. I find the EU/Turkey migrant deal abhorrent, we were not consulted on this and little is known of what is happening to these people once returned. Thousands are being kept in camps in various countries in appalling conditions. Thousands drowning in the Med. The EU protectionism places high tariffs on much trade with African countries. I would really like these policies to be defended by leavers before they call me racist

Forgive me for butting in.

I have just watched Michael Dougan unpack the lies of the Leave campaign.

How could anyone sane possibly be glad they voted for such a tall story? Or is Professor Dougan lying?
