Watching Brexit was one of the most bizarre world events I’ve seen in my life. Truly the slowest, clear-cut train crash in modern times. Literally everybody knew it was dumb, everybody knew what the result was going to be, and nothing really deviated from expectations.
Hell, when they were playing musical chairs with PMs over enacting the changes and kept blowing past all of the “absolute deadlines” I started to wonder if they were just going to pretend the vote never happened and just live their lives as usual. Frankly, they might’ve gotten away with it.
Well the people in it had a majority deciding in favor of it in a free election. And afterwards the people that voted against it had four years to adjust to it, for instance by migrating into an EU country.
Also it was perfectly possible to form a political stance to overthrow the non binding referendum but instead people voted Boris Johnson in a “landslide victory” to make sure Brexit gets done.
There were plenty turning points for society as a whole and individual possibility to leave the dumpsterfire behind. The people in the UK are getting exactly what they wanted.
I’m baffled by how you lump everyone into such a close vote as ‘getting what they wanted’, with an undertone suggesting you mean ‘getting what they deserved’.
Most people can’t just up and leave their country; to do so would mean causing more damage to their lives than just sitting in the shit sandwich they’ve been served by the useful idiots that made this mess.
Then there’s the whole issue with Russian interference that ‘probably happened’ according to MI5/6, but needed a full investigation which Alexander Boris de Pfelelfllellogram Johnson - likely being in Russian pockets already - obviously quashed.

Bizarre indeed, but at the same time highly entertaining. Real life comedy at its best!
Depends if you are watching or in it
